Why are there American football lines on the Houston Dynamo field? I thought it was soccer-specific?

I actually like Le Toux. Really worked hard and lifted himself out of the USL to the MLS. I remember seeing a Montreal Impact match live a few years ago when they played the Sounders and Le Toux was clearly a class above everyone else.

Think it'll be 0-1, Barton. That's my optimistic vote.

Sounds like he may be.

Would be similar to how he played for Lille. Have we got the strikers for a 4-3-3 though? Ba left, Shola middle and Obertan right? Jonas Obertan Ba With these guys up front we would have a very fluid front three, each of them could play in another's respective position. Could be class.

Nice to see we've upped our bid though to actually make it go through.

I don't watch a lot of Messi but to me it seems like there are many many times when he could flop down but he doesn't. He knows that he's through, or very near to it, if he stays on his feet, and that for me separates him from everyone else that seems to be in his class.

Damn that goal from Villa is great.

This on ESPN Deportes in the States then?

Savage's voice is borderline annoying.

This guy clearly had a point and just got totally derailed by the questions from Savage and now sounds like a mong.

Hah yeah "What planet are you on mate?"

Did this cut out for anyone else? Nevermind.

Liverpool fan with a London accent - how weird...

lol

I think the formation (with all starters fit) should be more along the lines of: O O O O O Tiote Cabaye O O Ben Arfa O

Glad to see him get a little praise today as he's been a great professional at this club.

Nervous about this to be honest.

I think if we are to play with both Tiote and Cabaye then we need to play some 4-5-1/4-3-3 variation because in a 4-4-2 they will tend to be disconnected from the front line. There will be a much better spine with it lining up with Tiote, Cabaye, CAM/Ben Arfa type player rather than Tiote, Cabaye, and then two strikers 45+ yards ahead of them with the wingers out wide. We're missing a big area of the pitch.

At the end of the day we just got a point from Arsenal. Gotta be pretty happy with that.

8-10.

Wish I didn't have to work - or that my bar had FSC. What time is the match EST?

Have to work at my bar in Orlando for this match.

Don't see why he wouldn't play to be honest. We need our best players out there tomorrow, regardless of off-field antics, and he's one of 'em. Pardew knows this and will start him.
