Fucking great.

What a tie this will be!!!

Masterclass.

That you Clive? Have they ever thought about putting a camera on the line?

One of the best strikes I've ever seen, well done.

HA

Wow, what an attacking move there.

Yeah, still not thinking about picking up another though, not sure if he'll fit on this one.

Over here ESPN has picked up this game, it'll be the first time I see the great Kevin Nolan in HD.

Guzan was really good.

Pretty sure he would've saved it. The bump from the defender could probably allow the goal to stand, didn't think about that. Kind of an odd play, don't think many refs would've let it go.

Right call, you can't just run through the goalie. What was not right was the way the play was restarted.

Looks like we're just going to sit in a shell, unlike we usually do against Brazil. Weird no-goal there.

If anyone of you are still up over there I recommend you watch the US/Brazil game going on right now. We've played them twice in the last few years and the games have been incredibly open, looking that way again.

Think you're looking a bit too much into it.

Seriously, I just don't understand what people are getting all worked up about.

Poor Cuellar and his broken English... I just got really sad.

We were told nothing would happen until Tuesday or Wednesday, and nothing has. I don't see what the big deal is.

Nothing

Not sure if I rate Bob Bradley or not yet. He did wonders with USA, but was that more to do with him tapping into Patriotic Pride over ability? I honestly have no idea, know very little of his work. Though he does seem to be one of the most succesful coaches domestically and internationally for the US. I think The Sun were the one that linked him, and in the article they called Randy Lerner "Jay" Lerner, so I wouldn't put too much stock in it. Don't really have an idea how he'd do, I think if he found the right fit he'd do well, but I'm not sure if Villa is it. He's not really a tactical genius, until he recognizes a mistake he's already made.

I wasn't arguing about the thread title, I just don't think that quote means anything has changed, the thread title was just example.

You don't understand man, my entire life course can change with one thread title change. I don't want to see it happen.

Because no deal has been agreed, just what we all knew yesterday, as the reports clearly said.

That article also says it hasn't been finalized, exactly what the director said today, there's no way he would've said anything about the details of it, considering it's still in progress. Keep digging.
