I had a good conversation with Steven Powell, head of development at The Football Supporters' Federation this past Friday, which has now been published on the EPL Talk Podcast for you to download and hear.

The USA's dominant 3-1 victory Sunday over Ecuador's A team at Raymond James Stadium was the most impressive performance by Landon Donovan since the early stages of World Cup 2006 qualifying. Donovan simply put has regained his confidence and has taken the criticism that many US fans including myself have lobbed at him to heart. […]

For those of you wondering whatever happened to Kevin Keegan, read this article from The Independent which reveals Mighty Mouse's latest adventure. It's a pretty frank discussion with the former Manchester City boss. No matter how bad things were at the City of Manchester with Keegan in charge, I wonder who City fans would pick […]

I want to share a letter I received from one of the EPL Talk readers regarding Setanta Sports and its availability via ITVN. Thanks to Dave Morris for writing in. Gaffer, I'm not fully informed on the relationship between FSC and Setanta, but my observation is: what a great value ITVN/Setanta is. In previous seasons, […]

Ask most American's what Britain is famous for and you'll invariably get the same answers. Bad teeth, The Beatles, The Queen, Benny Hill and Are You Being Served and the muffin – which is a bizarre sexual practise we are all obliged by law to indulge in on the Isles. Honest. Aside from those, a […]

Nike has designed yet another new jersey for US Soccer. This jersey has a nice color scheme and hopefully will be used quite often in the next few years. This jersey will debut this Sunday in the friendly versus Ecuador.

This past Monday, Cobi Jones perhaps the most recognizable American player of his generation announced this MLS season will be his last.
