In a post-game interview after last night’s All-Star game, Landon Donovan said "We have had transfer interest and we will have some time to think about it and see where it goes.  There is interest from a number of teams." To be explicit, what Donovan said he is going to Europe, and it is not […]

No Donovan.  No Buddle.  No Beckham.  No problem. The L.A. Galaxy continued their astounding early season form this evening with a 4-1 bulldozing of the Houston Dynamo this evening at the Home Depot Center.  The Galaxy continued their absolutely torrid pace and are still undefeated with 10 wins and 2 draws for 2010.  In the […]

  The Los Angeles Galaxy today announced that they are going to host Champions League Cup winners Inter Milan at a friendly at the Home Depot Center on August 7.  While only 18,000 people came out to see the Galaxy play Boca Juniors over the weekend, this game could probably sell 75,000 seats if the […]

Landon Donovan has impressed David Moyes and the Everton FC brass enough to justify a purchase, though the Toffees' gaffer is resigned to losing the American star when the player's loan expires this month.

Landon Donovan gets to put a check mark next to “Score a Goal” on his loan to-do list as he neatly put one in the net and almost had a second in Everton’s comfortable 2-0 win over Sunderland. After Tim Cahill put Everton up 1-0 in the 7th minute, Donovan doubled the lead with a […]
