Soccer round up


Lots of rumors have been flying around from both this (U.S.) and the other side of the pond, here's an overview of what has been going on over the past couple of days...

- First off, looks like my Red Bull offseason predictions may turn out to be a little off...but for the better.

- American's are being heavily considered by teams in Europe, among the names are Clint Dempsy and Eddie Johnson. Johnson may want to reconsider that goal scoring thing he did for a little while if he wants to make it in the premiership. You know, that thing where the ball goes over the white line into the net, yeah that's the one, remember that EJ?

- Chelsea's entire squad was in international play over the week...all did well. Seriously, chances are if you have seen a warm body who plays profesional soccer, Didier Drogba has scored on that guy's team this season.

- Of course the Chelsea vs Man Utd fixture will be played in two weekends, and it is a safe bet that every player on both squads is looking past their upcoming opponents. Could be an upset brewing for one of the sides.

That looks like about it for right now...except I feel as if Wayne Rooney is due for another bar fight, or club fight, or fan fight, or...you get the point. Gotta love Rooney even though he plays for Man U.
