  1. NE is far from the all-stars…maybe Joseph is all star quality but the others are garbage including Feilhaber. Steve N is overrated also

  2. NE revo loses 4-1 to a pre season man united. Imagine when they are fully recover from there break. They are going to humiliate the all stars again.

  3. Didn’t realise you liked stripes on every adidas jersey. Look abroad nike has the most creative kits all over the world. I do agree its time to get rid of the sash

  4. MLS B teams have a hard enough time making it a game against MLS A teams (or consistently handling USL teams in US Open Cup), much less a Manchester United who’s bringing in Rio Ferdinand, Ji Sung Park and Ryan Giggs off the bench.

  5. i thought this was an issue during the last cba negotiations and that some sort of agreement was worked out, but i could be wrong.

  6. Well they held in there for a half. Man U has crushed its fair share of lower EPL teams; NE is currently a lower MLS team. I’m not embarrassed at all really. Not that anyone here was MLS-bashing.

  7. don’t think so, but im pretty sure that in the past when they go abroad on tours (Galaxy to Australia comes to mind, maybe NY and the Emirates Cup?) they’ve gotten compensation.

  8. Univision.com has the games in great quality HD if you don’t mind it being in Spanish. Just click on the game icon.

  9. is that cause he looks fat or strong? hope its the latter. anderson has so much talent and i hope he can finally live up to his potential this season.

  10. Man it looks like Anderson has gained like 30 lbs in the offseason. Pretty impressive considering the season didn’t end that long ago.

  11. Is NE unmotivated or are they just that bad? I know its a friendly but Nyassi looks to be the only man with legs to this point. Run at ’em boys. If you go down so be it.

  12. These wfc games are going to generate a pretty decent amount of money. Does anyone know if mls players get a cut of it?
