Those two

Amazed some of you are getting up to watch this, then I remembered I was waking up at the same times to watch the U20 World Cup last month

And this Sp. Anderlecht news ‏@Sporting_AND 1m1 minute ago Mbemba: "The transfer isn't finalised yet, there are still some final details to work out" #rsca #nufc yay

Juan Agudelo coming from MLS to Stoke a year or so back was rejected, that's all I can remember.

Yeah, just watched the highlights of him against Dortmund this year, looks a bit more target man than poacher. Won a lot and seems to have a nice touch out of the air.

Makes me feel a lot better about our shit performances watching Mexico. Beckerbro definitely needs the ax, he's been horrible this tournament.

I got my free scarf in the end, well chuffed

Apparently Ryder got some fans in the press box for the game. Must be loving being liked.

I shook his hand yesterday and the only thing I could think while we shook hands was how much terrible shit I've said about him.

Didn't catch much of the training, but Anita seemed like a fun chap during what I saw. Colo and Perez went all the way down the line for autographs/pictures, the rest just went halfway or when called. Andy Woodman still fancies himself as the bantz king and told a story to McClaren about Pardew being called a pervert by a fan.

Was going to leave for Milwaukee in an hour for this training session. Don't think I'll have a chance in this weather

Dos Santos is probably going to take the piss just as much as Giovinco too.

Tor-Kristian Karlsen likes him, good enough for me.

Not too concerned about a new leftback, would rather have two centerbacks and just let Haidara start at this point, mostly because I know we'll be lucky to get four signings and don't think leftback is as much of a priority. He's 22 now, has looked promising if a little raw, but he's going to develop further if he's playing.

Think Beckerman proved at the last Gold Cup and World Cup he's our best defensive mid, but he did have one of his worst games for us last night. He's 33 so hopefully we can move on after this tournament, Williams and Morales should do. Would love to find a way to get Johnson in midfield again, think he's best there, unfortunately we have no fullbacks.

I'm sure he'll get a few starts during the rest of the tournament, three games in seven days and all that.

He just left his job out of nowhere for a "role in the UK," but he's failed twice in MLS. Makes pretty much no sense.

Would be nice if they start uploading more videos to youtube like every other club but not if that's the music they're going to use.

Sounds like Chicharito to MLS isn't going to happen now, wants $10m a year and no one will pay it.

Way to go America

are you just hearing about Ray Hudson now? Just switched it on so no idea who it was Yeah it's him. You're lucky to have gone this long without hearing him.

are you just hearing about Ray Hudson now?

Chicharito in talks with Orlando now, apparently the league has been after him and dos Santos for a few months now.

Iirc the new CBA added an extra DP to each team. Dunno if it's taken effect yet. If not, I can't see them shifting any of their three DPs (Keane, Gerrard, Gonzalez) in favor of dos Santos. It didn't, but they'll just make a new rule for them. Twellman said there would be another one added a few months ago.

In other news, sounds like Giovani dos Santos is close to joining LA.
