I don't usually post speculation about transfers here but this particular signing would be massive on many levels. My feeling is that MLS exists to promote domestic talent, and Julian DeGuzman is the best attacking player from the US or Canada in Europe. DeGuzman's revelation that he is considering a move to TFC should inspire […]

Click here for Part 1 Last season, Gerrard and Torres missed substantial chunks of play. And Liverpool suffered for it. When they were both fit, Liverpool hit some astounding results: v. Real Madrid: 4-0; v. Chelsea 2-0; v. Villa 5-0; and @ United 4-1!!! They even managed strong results against big sides with one or […]

A lot of lesser-known teams are involved at this stage but the big upset of the day was SPL side Motherwell losing at home to Welsh opponents Llanelli. 42-year-old player-manager Andy Legg, who played for both Swansea City FC and Cardiff City AFC, called their 1-0 win at Motherwell "the best result that Llanelli have […]

Tip of the hat to Two Footed Tackle for uncovering the video.

Once again, MLS executives prove they are not in tune with their product. The Gold Cup provided the perfect opportunity for MLS to expand their fan base. Collaboration with CONCACAF representatives could have brought doubleheaders featuring one MLS game and one Gold Cup game from the first game through to the final (This year's format does provide doubleheaders, […]

Well if you're going to start a series like this, there is only one person to start with in my opinion, Sir Stanley Matthews, the wizard of dribble. Matthews is a name that will always be mentioned as one of the greatest footballers of all time, never mind a legend of the English game. He was […]

Last Tuesday Harrisburg pulled off the upset of this year's US Open Cup with a win in Foxborough against the New England Revolution. Tiyi Shipalane, one of the clubs star players joins us to preview Tuesday's quarterfinal versus DC United, look back at last weeks upset, discuss his native South Africa and converse about his […]

Over the next couple of weeks, I'm going to be focusing on 11 of the legendary players of English football to perhaps give some of you an insight to some names that you may not be aware of. In the modern footballing climate, we can sometimes forget the players and names that used to play football more […]

The Barclays Premier League Review Show will be returning to the Fox Sports Regional Networks for the 2009-2010 season after a break of several years, according to an inside source. Many followers of English football on U.S. television may remember the early incarnations of the Review Show, which was shown on Fox regional affiliates throughout […]

Gutted: n. 1) A feeling of intense desolation, akin to the feeling of having one's insides ripped out. 2) A sweet colloquialism that should be adopted into American parlance along with the words "wanker", "bullocks" and "knackered". Example: Ethan Armstrong will be gutted if Liverpool FC sell Xabi Alonso to Real Madrid. Here it is: […]

The big story of the first weekend of Gold Cup action was probably the injury to Mexico's Carlos Vela (pictured above from CONCACAF.com). If Vela is out long term, El Tri's hopes to recapture the Gold Cup trophy could be seriously dented. Nicaragua playing their first ever major tournament match gave a good account of […]

Michael Owen’s shock transfer to Manchester United gives him the chance to be re-united with Wayne Rooney, a strike partnership that proved so fruitful with the England national side. A successful pairing up front is often at the heart of a side’s success and if they develop a mutual understanding can prove greater than the […]

It's now possible for football supporters to watch most of the major foreign and domestic leagues either on television or on the Internet. As a result, the number of clubs that a supporter follows has presumably grown from one to many. So, what clubs do you support from the different leagues around the world, why, […]

The rumours first started in January that Manchester City were interested in landing John Terry, but nothing seemed too concrete and I, perhaps along with a lot of people, just dismissed it as paper talk. Why on earth would Terry leave the Blues to take a risk on Manchester City. Now though, its official, City […]
