AJ Hudson's, The Globe, and Cleo's will all have it. Some Chicago supporters watch at AJ Hudson's, but I like The Globe and Cleo's more 

 

Mother Hubbard's should also be open if you're downtown 

Are these still the best places to watch? I will be there this week.

Went from an obsessed 21 year old who wouldn't miss a home game under any circumstances to a 36 year old who doesn't watch most of the games and wouldn't have set foot in the ground if you paid me.

lmao still the same wullie after all these years

Sturridge out for 4+ weeks with hip injury, will miss trip to Arsenal and FA Cup Quarter final + semi-final if they make it. 

What are the odds on a goal being scored by a Newcastle player in the next 3 games?

I'm all for Americans getting into soccer. However the fact few people here know much about the sport, but Americans ABSOLUTELY MUST have an opinion on every thing, is fucking killing me.

 

Yedlin comes on, gets forward, mishits his cross from the right, ball goes high and out for a goal kick. Dude in the bar shouts, "you suck! Why is he even shooting from there?"

 

Every time the ref blows for something against the U.S.A., no matter how blatantly right he was, it's a "complete bullshit call."

 

The only player on the field they've heard of is Dempsey, so all talk during slow periods is of getting the ball to him.

 

These people are killing me. Deuce, Mike, etc get your house in order.

 

it's shameful. Especially since most of these types won't watch any soccer after the World Cup finishes.

 

I'm returning to the States in a few days, think I'll try to catch the game in the local AO chapter pub. Hopefully won't be as bad as that, but I'm already dreading the chants.

The World Cup is bringing out plenty of idiots to watch these games.  I enjoy the atmosphere but god damn there are some morons spouting shite the entire 90 mins.

Jones is playing better than he ever has for the USA.  Never liked him but he is repaying some faith here, been played in 2 different positions and put in 2 outstanding performances.

 

What team will you go for now knowing that a draw is good enough?  I'd go:

                  Howard

Cameron-Besler-Gonzalez-Beasley

                    Jones

  Zusi-Bradley-Diskerud-Johnson

                  Dempsey

Croatia been twice as good as Brazil so far, deserved it.  They are looking much the better side. 

 

Of course McManaman puts it down to "sloppy" brazilian defending rather than nice Croatian attacking play.

 

Modric has been awesome so far.

Ok I have paid, Can I get the league password?

In. 

Is the idea to have 10 B teams? I take it thats the top ten from the previous season or is it just the richest 10 and stick with them every season? What happens if say Southampton B finish in a promotion place but Southampton get relegated?

I think they have already said that Southampton B would be relegated in this situation.

what the fuck is going on with this world feed broadcast?

Definitely more booing now.

They must have been instructed to bring children to cut down on the vitriol.

the walkout is just gonna be embarrassing, it will not play out well.

Ben Arfa apparently also walking through the stand signing autographs.

Fulham going down now, what the fuck was Riise doing on that goal?

So he is contractually obligated to wear the sponsor's logo?  Surely he is now in breach of contract and the club shouldn't be paying him.  A later decision to allow him to play without it should see his wage lowered, not raised.

You have to imagine Donovan has put to rest any doubts that he'll be starting for the A-side soon enough.

 

                        Howard                       

            Cameron        Besler

Evans                                      F. Johnson

              Jones

                                    Bradley

                      Dempsey

    Zusi                                Donovan

                      Altidore 

 

 

Is probably my first choice line-up at the moment. Love the potential of that left side, as Donovan loves to cut inside and Johnson loves to get forward, so we'll have a goal-scoring threat in Donovan and Altidore will still be able to receive service from an overlapping Johnson.

 

Only question marks at this point are RB and CB. Evans will do for now, and I think Cameron is a bit stronger than Gonzalez at this point.       

Holden has to be in there somewhere.  Would like him in favor of Jones but that might leave things a bit unbalanced.  Cherundolo should be back for the World Cup as well, correct?  I'm also a bit partial to the idea of having a front 3 of Altidore, Donovan, and Dempsey, with Dempsey on the right.  Didn't he play there some for Spurs this year?

And let's lay the blame there where it deserves to be, with sissoko

Great fucking play there from them, let's be honest, they deserve this tie on the whole

At Least should get 7 mins here

Very legitimate chance to win this now

Lucky for the keeper he got the ball, otherwise that's a pen
