How many years does Mo Johnston have to be in the league before he realizes you can't build a team on Championship level players and be any good? He's got DeRo, Frei, Guevara, Wynne and dog crap. Gerba, Dichio, etc.

This Real Madrid thing is fun. Good god. I know it's just crappy Toronto, but every touch, every pass and every finish is, to borrow a phrase from Ray Hudson, magisterial.

Vincenzo Bernardo is mos def not the next Rossi; that's both good and bad.: http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=665821&sec=us&cc=5901

Here is the 20 player training roster for the USA, to be cut down to 18 on game day: G: Brad Guzan - Aston Villa Tim Howard - Everton D: Carlos Bocanegra - Stade Rennes Jonathan Bornstein - Chivas USA Steve Cherundolo – Hannover 96 Jay DeMerit - Watford Chad Marshall - Columbus Crew Oguchi Onyewu – AC Milan Jonathan Spector - West Ham United M: Michael Bradley – Borussia Monchengladbach Ricardo Clark - Houston Dynamo Clint Dempsey - Fulham Benny Feilhaber - AGF Aarhus Stuart Holden - Houston Dynamo Jose Francisco Torres - Pachuca F: Jozy Altidore - Hull City Conor Casey - Colorado Rapids Brian Ching - Houston Dynamo Charlie Davies - Sochaux Landon Donovan - Los Angeles Galaxy

Maybe if England didn't dress so slutty and drink so much, Ponting wouldn't do that. England really was begging for it though.

I was coming here just for this :-). I'm curious to who is going to be doing the broadcasting. I'm sure they'll use the Setanta feed. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/eticket/story?page=usworldcup Everyone read that if they are into the USMNT.

ESPN Buys Premier League Rights They are showing two games a week. Similar to their La Liga set up. They appear to have purchased a portion of Setanta Ireland's package as evidenced by the fact that they first game they are showing is Chelsea v the Hull Altidores which was originally a Setanta game. This is huge.

I'd tell you to start taking it easier, but I guess it's better to burn out than fade away.

Do I think Jozy is better than Johnson, Zamora and Gera? Yes. Do I think Hodgson would plan to start him right away? No. Hull gave our boy the 9. He's going to be first choice up top. http://www.sporthull.co.uk/football/hull_city/tigers_news/displayarticle.php?ID=13590

The Fire won the Super Liga tonight.

Looks like no free red cards next Wed. http://www.soccerbyives.net/soccer_by_ives/2009/08/marquez-injured-will-miss-usamexico-qualifier.html Marquez out.

I forgot that was on.

Defour is a stud. I've even heard whispers of Ribery.

EPL Talk Nats in red.

Haha, I'm [expletive]!

Liverpool bought Aquilani to Replace Alonso. 18 million pounds. With 12,000,000 left to sign someone else, I think this has turned out well for Liverpool. If they lose Mascherano, however, they are in trouble.

Man I'm psyched. He was born to play in the Premiership. http://msn.foxsports.com/foxsoccer/premierleague/onfsc Unfortunately, no Hull in May on FSC. It says it's subject to change, so hopefully it does.

Jozy's twitter: England early in the morning so im going to get some sleep ill tweet all day tomorrow on my bb and let you guys know whats going on!

Is Hull the best place for him. I think he would perform well in England, just wondering about Hull. I like it. He'll get good minutes, decent service if Bullard is healthy and I'm sure he'll have a relegation clause.

Hull wants to buy Jozy. 6.5 million pounds is $11,002,666.22. Villarreal could actually turn a profit despite the loan fiasco? That'd be cool. He could re-break his US international transfer record.

DeMerit has no experience on the outside. Boca plays left back for Rennes, played some for Fulham in 06-07 and even played some right back and right mid when injuries decimated the squad. He's the only choice if we're moving someone out left from the middle. I think the most important factor at Azteca is confidence and I don't know if we've ever had a more confident squad that this Confed's squad. The right mixture of success, experience and failure to give them the right perspective. The middle will be Bradley and Clark. I'm concerned. They both have a penchant for bad cards. Benny has been a maestro lately and throughout his career against Mexico. He's on a great run of form right now, so if he started over Rico, I don't think that's a terrible idea. I'd be happy with Bradley and either of those two, I just hope Mikey and Clark keep their heads on straight. ---------------------------Howard------------------------------ ----Spec----------Gooch-----------DeMerit----------Boca---- ------------------Clark------------Bradley--------------------- -----Deuce-----------------------------------Donovan-------- -------------------Jozy-------------Davies--------------------- Those forwards are just too much for the Mexican back line. After that fiasco at the meadowlands, Brian Ching can f off. I don't care if he's our third best forward option. He's not getting on that field if I'm Bradley. I'd call up Jeff Cunningham or Eddie [expletive] Johnson before I put Ching in there. Ching was lazy in the final and that is inexcusable.

Have to think so. Especially if DeMerit provides the cover he did against Spain and Brazil. I see Boca getting smoked on the wing though. I would almost, almost be tempted to start Hejduk and Spector with Boca/Gooch in the center. Why do you think that little head band wearing girl would expose Boca when Fabregas, Ramos, Maicon and Robinho didn't? With Boca out there, it's all about bend but don't break. If they stay organized, they should be fine.

Have to think so. Especially if DeMerit provides the cover he did against Spain and Brazil.
