I'm a Rochesterian at heart. I went to college there, had family that retired from Eastman Kodak, loved Nick Tahou's, and of course, treasure Abby Wambach. Having said that it's pretty clear that the best forward this generation has known is taking the US Women's National Team (USWNT) on her shoulders, for better or for […]

Liverpool forward Raheem Sterling's latest apparent laughing gas incident is unlikely to have any effect on his club's stance in relation to the player's ongoing transfer saga. Manchester City on Wednesday failed in their second attempt to sign the England international after upping their initial offer by £10million to £40m, comprising £35m up front plus […]

Aston Villa manager Tim Sherwood has explained why he signed Micah Richards, insisting the England defender will bring a "winning mentality" to the club. Richards picked up Barclays Premier League and FA Cup winners' medals in his time at Manchester City but spent last season on loan at Fiorentina before agreeing a four-year deal with […]

An effective but rather humdrum start for the favored United States into the Women’s World Cup is either one of two things: This is manager Jill Ellis not having a solid handle on what her team is all about, especially on attack, still struggling with how to balance an aging workhorse inspiration of a forward […]

Today is the last of the Group stages for the 2015 Women's World Cup, so we will see who will advance and get an idea of what third place teams will make it through to the Round of 16. There's plenty of movement within Group F and today's games will make or break these teams. […]

Burnley full-back Kieran Trippier appears close to joining Tottenham after Clarets manager Sean Dyche confirmed the transfer was an "active deal". The 24-year-old right-back has been linked with a switch to Mauricio Pochettino's men following Burnley's relegation out of the Barclays Premier League last season. The Clarets have already lost 11-goal striker Danny Ings to […]

Radamel Falcao and Juan Cuadrado can bring the best out of each other at Chelsea next season, according to Colombia coach Jose Pekerman. It is widely reported the Barclays Premier League champions have reached an agreement with Monaco to sign striker Falcao on a season-long loan. Falcao scored just four goals in 29 appearances for […]

Manchester City have made an improved £40million offer for Raheem Sterling, but Liverpool are expected to reject the latest bid. Having had an offer of £25million plus £5million worth of add-ons turned down last week, City have upped what they are willing to pay by £10million. However, that still falls short of the £50million minimum […]

Premier League champions Chelsea will start the defense of their title with a home game against Swansea. Jose Mourinho's men finished eight points ahead of the rest in 2014/15 and will begin a bid for a repeat showing against Garry Monk's side when everything gets under way on August 8. Manchester United's home game with […]

So far, Group C and D has had some of the best drama in the 2015 Women's World Cup with the places in the knock-out stages all being up for grabs. These games will not only determine who makes it to the next stage of the tournament but will also settle the placings for the teams and […]

Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero believes the club can give him the platform to become a Ballon d'Or winner. Aguero has scored 107 goals for City in 163 appearances since joining the club in a £38million transfer from Atletico Madrid four years ago. The 2014-15 campaign was his most impressive, with 32 goals in 41 […]

Good gracious, I feel like I'm somewhere between Cloud 9 and the Nuthouse. And that's a good thing. June is typically a wacky, wonderful month for the soccer fan. Being a year removed from Brazil 2014, it can leave you with a false sense of calm, as if you might be able to have a […]

The U.S. Women's National Team sits in first place in their Group in the Women's World Cup with four points. At the bottom of the table sit Nigeria with one point. For Nigeria, this is a must win game. A loss will certainly knock them out of the tournament while a win and a loss by either Australia or […]

Copa America's two biggest teams face off in what could be an enthralling match at the Estadio La Portada de La Serena tonight (7:30pm ET kickoff). Both sides have won a combined 29 titles in this competition and the rivalry between them has been very fierce over the years. Defending champions Uruguay were unconvincing in the […]
