If this is in the long-term plans of Mourinho, this has to happen. If he coaches the USMNT in 2018, the US could seriously win the world cup. Exciting stuff.
Terry Vaughn impressing Sepp Blatter with his superb officiating performance in New England.
Class Act.
GOAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLL! Pat Phelan with the header off a Chris Tierney free kick. 1-0 Revs at the half
What no americans starting for pachuca?
Who’s the seed in that group? Turkey or the US?
Arshavin can do things on his “bad days” that LD just cannot do. Donovan is a great player and probably America’s best of all-time, but Arshavin is better. Quicker, more agile, more of a scorer (i.e. not from the penalty spot)
I’ll do what the article calls for…. I’m taking it with a grain of salt. This would be amazing however.
Thats great spin. +1
wow… BMO is empty… what happened?
Those aren’t Special Forces those are Special Operations. There is a difference.
Our Special Forces are known as SF/Green Berets.
I’ll flash my importance and say I’ve worked will all those listed except the Israeli SF.
It is the US hands down followed by SAS and then the Dutch SF.
The Polish SF have lost more guys to alcohol poisoning in Afghanistan than fighting if that tells you anything.
TTA: 43 min
I hope he gets his wish and goes out on loan
US without qustion. Navy Seals and Delta Force are the best of the best.
He got himself into a bad defensive team
Bocanegra has brought that American custom of conceding within 5 minutes to St Etienne…don’t think it was his fault though.
Dammit Sacha! Shave that effin’ mustache!
This HAS to happen!
Mourinho hints his future could be in U.S.

I love lamp.
I like eggth… Obah-eeedy eggth. They run right through my teef.
Go look at what Arsenal paid for Arshavin… same age, fairly close in skill, go look, its more then you would think. The market is inflated for ALLL players
Unable to rescue a point for Leeds though…Derby 2 Leeds 1
Agreed…I’ll be there at 4.
