Have you all read Drew’s new book? What did you think?

There isn't another domestic league in the world where the 6th place team (Chelsea, 2011-12) would have even a remote chance of winning the Champions League...

Man City: Aguero, Negredo, Dzeko; Liverpool: Suarez, Sturridge, Man U: Rooney, RvP, Welbeck; Chelsea: Eto'o, Torres, Ba.

I tend to disagree. Arsenal have fared relatively well against the top ten if you take into account that some of their toughest games were sandwiched between Dortmund and Napoli. Since November they've had a run of games against Liverpool-Dortmund-ManU and Everton-Napoli-ManCity-Chelsea. Given that Arsenal most likely…

Howard is a bitch.

J. Peterman is impressed.

Counterpoint: DC United

Orlando City already draws more in the third tier of professional soccer than Chivas in the MLS. Add teams in Carolina, St. Louis, and Baltimore and stop the expansion at 24 for the foreseeable future. No point in expanding if the quality of play doesn't improve.

For every Germany, Spain, and Italy there's a Belarus, San Marino, Liechtenstein, Latvia, Luxembourg, Cyprus, Andorra, Faroe Islands, Malta, Estonia, etc. Top to bottom, CONMEBOL is stronger.

This is glorious.

He only actually dove in like three of these highlights...when he couldn't have been older than 19. The rest of the video is of him getting in "fights" with Madrid...so can you really blame him?

Bleh. If I'm an aspiring player trying to become world-class I would mimic the best player in the world, not fall to ground every chance I get.

It's frustrating watching players of Young's quality do this - not even "flop" but just go to ground so easily - when the best player in the world doesn't even have to revert to these tactics.

My point is that his legacy will be decided by World Cup results, not friendlies. Regardless of the win streak (Guatemala, Belize, Cuba, El Salvador) and quality wins against some European opposition (Germany C team), if the U.S. crashes out of the group stage in Brazil will he have achieved anything more or less than…

...so far Klinsmann has achieved the exact same results the USMNT has achieved in the last decade, and I'm not sure the current squad has the potential to reach beyond the quarterfinals. Our defense is shit.

Remember that time the USMNT was ranked 4th (!) heading into the 2006 World Cup...that worked out well.
