Not a great time to start the thread, but oh well

What are you trying to do?

Get us Americans booted off of the Forum?!?!?!?!

 

[flieeeekke]

since we have a thread about german league somewhere so why not mls?

after all, number of americans recently increased, so why not.



and serge, you started a thread about american football. you might get booted of for that

 

[KB824]

Shhhhhh, only 3 people know about that.


I don't really follow MLS too much, but now that Freddy Adu is there, I may go to some NE Revolution games when DC united are in town.

 

[Henry]

I hope Adu is all he is hyped up to be! DC United needs a start big time! lol-Serge-seeing that you started an american football thread and weren't kicked out, I should be fine

I wonder how he would fare, say in the EPL or Series A.......I can't really say because I don't see many games at all-but are there many MLS players that are good enough to play in Europe? obviously, all those goalies, but are there any strikers, or midfielders?

doesnt an american play for ajax?

 

[magosantana81]

Hi guys! I got tired on my home-thread and decided to take part in other topics!

Anyway... Isn't Marcelo Balboa playing in the Premier League now? Well, he's half Argentinean/half American, so that's why!

Coby Jones was a good player, as well. And I think he played in some European second class league.

And do you remember Tony Meola? HAHA! Didn't he go to to play in the NFL then? He surely looked like a footballer more than a soccer goalie

 

[Layce Erayce]

what about that dude with the wildlife-reservation of bad hair?

 

[magosantana81]

¿¿¿¿¿????

Alexis Lalas the guitar player??? He had some crazy hair as far as I can remember...

By the way, I saw that Freddy Adu on the last Youth World Cup and I think he's a little bit overrated...

 

[Layce Erayce]

nevermind.

i think if adu stays in the us too long it will not be good for him. he needs to get loaned out to europe or something.

Clint Mathis?

The (decent) USA players I know:

Adu, Donovan, McBride, Friedel, Keller, Reyna,

 

[magosantana81]

There you are! I confused Balboa with Reyna. This one has played in Germany (Leverkusen and Wolfsburg), England (Sunderland) and is currently in Rangers (Scotland Premier) if I'm not wrong...

Still, it's another case of an American player with Latin roots.

 

[KB824]

Lallas actually was the only player to play in Serie A.

He played for Parma, and they gave him a rousing standing ovation when he played his last match for them.


And, mago. YOU SAID SOCCER!!!

 

[magosantana81]

Yeah well... BUT IT WAS IN THIS CONTEXT... A MLS THREAD!!!
