Since the founding of Major League Soccer in 1993, American soccer has faced an uphill battle against a public that really does not embrace the sport.

The fan wearing a Wayne Rooney Manchester United shirt was booed, taunted and eventually stripped of his shirt at Liverpool's open training session in Malaysia. […]

The media-dubbed “Arsepocalypse” or "Arsenal exodus” is a huge farce. According to the British press, Arsene Wenger’s empire is crumbling. Many Arsenal supporters believe that Samir Nasri and Cesc Fabregas have one foot out the door when that is simply not the case. For weeks, rumors have swirled around Nasri and Fabregas.

By Conor Diggin With the new season fast approaching there are fears that it will be a one horse race for the title, with Leicester City the name on everyone’s lips. Matthew Mills, Paul Konchesky, even Kasper Schmeichel, Leicester have beaten a host of clubs, the majority from the Premier League, to the signings of these stars. […]

On the same day that Manchester United unveiled their new away shirt, cross-town rivals Manchester City have launched their home shirt.

Yes, we get […]

Sneijder, who spent a good chunk of time injured last year at Inter, has allegedly expressed his desire to leave and has supposedly spoken to an Inter […]

The latest entry in the saga involving Chelsea's attempt to pry away Tottenham forward Luka Modric away from White Hart Lane involves honesty, bitterness, money (of course) and the idea surrounding unhappy players and what is exactly a "big club" in the 2011 version of the Premier League. As the story stands: Modric, claiming loyalty […]
