You just can't help yourself, man

We'll finish outside Europe but stay up, they'll finish outside Europe and stay up. I just liked seeing a competitive league.

Hope they get Bent, think he would do well there, especially with Berbatov playing off him.

Carroll's success here was definitely a bit more special for me, but I'll probably feel that way about any player coming through the academy, foreign or English. I don't really find any special connection to English players, to the point where I'm much more excited about Europeans/South Americans. I'm just going to find it hard to relate to any player who makes thousands a week, but I guess if we signed an American it would be a different story.

Great news, please don't go to jail.

Club's probably too cheap to have a clicky-top for him to sign with, deal will fall apart.

Great finish

If you think the USA are "that bad" then where does that put Iceland if he'll choose us over you? And on the other side of the same coin, it shows that Iceland has a long way to go to compete with nations like the USA if one of their starlets feels it's better for his career to declare for the US. We are a nation of 300.000, if we ever make it to a WC or the Euros it will be like for regular size nations winning the world cup! It's understandable that we are bad. Whats your excuse??? I understand very well why he picked USA over us, its because of WC and higher profile resulting in higher income. We're too big, and haven't cared about the sport long enough. A youth system has only really been in place since the 90's, and there's still no way to organize a youth training system nationwide. Players are missed all the time, and technique isn't worked on enough at youth levels. We have gotten better at it recently though, and utilizing players with duel nationality and heavily scouting hispanic communities are two examples. Yeah, so he had to make a one-time switch and is permanently a US player without being cap tied. Scored on a pen and assisted for AZ today

Somebody mad

Instantly changed my user text after watching that

Dempsey even said last year his ultimate goal was to play in the Champions League. Doesn't make much sense to me, there should've at least been a loan option to a European team, then he could come back after the World Cup. I know MLS wants to keep American players, but we also need them moving to Europe for the national team, which is more important to me.

Sounds like Dempsey is seriously on his way to Seattle. Rumors started yesterday, but I just assumed it was bs, he was in San Francisco and so were Everton so that made a lot more sense. Don't see any reason why he couldn't find a European club for at least a World Cup year, but I guess it's a coup for MLS.

#respect

Not the only time he's done similar, either

What the fuck

Isn't there some kind of rule on here about ending thread titles with a preposition?

Totti, man

The fact that he's made such an impact on the national team is pretty damning

Zusi hate is unacceptable

I can only do so much for the image with so many cunts around [heads to bigsoccer for a laugh]

Pretty sure Spurs are looking for a CB more comfortable on the ball, fits AVB's system better. Still surprises me though.

I don't think I can hate him after his performances later in the Gold Cup, he's just so fucking boring. Useful enough for the first team, but I've seen enough sideways passes from his dreadlocks to last forever. Those tweets though Tbf, we do normally win, as long as it's not against Man Utd.
