I'd like to see Chandler back, but I'm pretty comfortable in Cameron takes the position fulltime, he was excellent against Austria.

Basel have been robbed so far.

Porto are done, 2-0

Payet gets a second yellow and Ivanov sent off for Basel. Three reds already across all matches.

Only saw it briefly, that not offside?

Thought that Ajax header was in for sure.

Already

Cal, I think it was

He would only stay until MLS beings in March, I'm guessing. Maybe not though, he hasn't been great with the Sounders. Just what Sam needs, another injury prone striker.

I think there's definitely been a change in effort/commitment under Poyet. They at least look like a collection of shit players instead of a bunch of shit individuals, there's just not much more a squad like that can achieve.

Took him long enough. Only a month ago he was saying he expects them to survive comfortably.

Yeah, surprised they haven't dropped it already. I would imagine this comes down to lack of evidence by the prosecution (really have no clue, but what else could it be?), it be surprising if they pushed it back again.

Right, but what he was the one shifted in the public eye because of the rights vocal battle against him. The point is, he's great at what he does and shouldn't be scoffed at because people think they're predictions.

Kreis officially announced as the first coach of New York. Don't they not start for another season? Gonna take a break I guess, maybe Klinsy will let join the US staff for a bit.

DaMarcus Beasley, the forum divider

Didn't realize Georgie Thompson is on tv over here. Weird fit.

Boring goal for a boring game

Reyna actually scored in a CL qualifier, but he wasn't on the list when I looked. Thought about considering him, he is an American citizen after all.

Jones is right. Jovan Kirovski is other other, scored for Dortmund the year they won.

Ooh, a quiz. Onyewu? Beasley Edu Latter two are right, one's still currently playing in the Champions League (this is a giveaway hint) and the other played for Crystal Palace and Birmingham at the beginning of the millennium.

I don't think it's just the police, stuff like transport would be a major issue if both NUFC and SAFC were to kick off at home on Saturday at 3pm since both clubs draw a large amount of support from outside the respective cities. Is it like this everywhere in England, West Brom and Aston Villa wouldn't play home games on the same day right? Just hard to comprehend because it happens so much over here in the same city. West Brom and Villa isn't really a big rivalry. Birmingham City and Aston Villa certainly would never have two home games on the same day, at least when Blues were in the premiership. But there close in proximity though right? That's what I thought the restrictions about (well, actually I thought it was down to police as they're the ones who change the derby kickoff). I'm sure if I grew up in the country it would makes sense to me, but it seems like something that could be pulled out pretty easily.

Sacha Kljestan becomes the fifth American to score in the Champions League. We're going places.

"Must take the chance this time" no, man, no he's shit

Pretty fucking stupid law

Flipped over to the Man Utd game for a few minutes and apparently a blizzard started at Galatasaray/Juventus. Field is almost white Might be hail actually
