As we close the books on 2010 and go through our retrospectives (including MLS Talk's own awards) I wanted to take a different look back on the year that was through a different lens: what if what happened didn't happen, or vice versa. Over the weekend I intend to take four 2010 events from American […]

For weeks now, speculation has been out there about which English club would secure Landon Donovan for a winter loan. Would it be Fulham? Or Everton?

As a Fulham supporter, this season has been a painful one. The Cottagers are hovering just above the relegation zone, sorely lacking the sort of player that can turn a draw into an all-important three points. It seems I'm not the only one that thinks Mark Hughes' Fulham side is in need of some inspiration […]

Less than 48 hours from now, we will know whether the U.S. bid for the 2022 World Cup was a success or a failure. In Zurich the U.S. delegation is counting votes, firming up yeses and feeling out no votes. One advantage the U.S. has is star power, something a country like Qatar has to […]

As part of his second state of the union at halftime of the MLS Cup, Don Garber revealed that MLS would be considering shifting the season from spring-to-fall to the FIFA-endorsed fall-to-spring schedule.

In another piece of bizarre scheduling, MLS and ESPN team up to bring us the Red Bulls and Galaxy tonight, live at 11. I'm working, so thanks to the magic of ESPN3, it suits me fine. Still, it will be interesting to see the rating for tonight's match on the deuce. Even without Thierry Henry, […]
