The most entertaining game of the weekend came at the King Power Stadium, where Leicester came back from 3-1 down to win 5-3 at the expense of Manchester United. There is no escaping that United's defense were all over the place. It was naive at the best of times, but the decision to award Leicester […]

Diego Costa insouciantly rounded Tim Howard and slotted Chelsea’s sixth goal of the game at Goodison Park; the moment it became abundantly and indisputably clear Everton had pertinent concerns.

Today we wrap up our "Three Questions" series with the defending MLS champions, the Los Angeles Galaxy. By any definition, they were the best team in MLS last season: they convincingly led the Supporters Shield's race most of the season, looked like the best team in the playoffs, and won the MLS Cup. They did […]

Who says the U.S. national team is weak at forward? During yesterday's Everton v. Bolton match, keeper Tim Howard broke the scoreless tie with a 100 yard strike that was aided by the wind. I am not sure which is more impressive, the goal itself or how cool Howard was celebrating. What do you think, […]

Chicago ended the year as potentially the best non-playoff team in MLS.
