Mais oui, Arsene, the away goal rule sucks. But here's why we need it:

3
Arsene Wenger today made his case for abolishing UEFA's away goal rule that serves as the primary tie-breaker in European competition. The illustrious coach of Arsenal FC told the Guardian he felt "the weight of the away goal is too heavy now tactically - it was created 42 years ago at a stage when the teams that went abroad just defended.

After Hull painfully exposed Arsenal's fallibility at the back, the last thing Arsene Wenger's men will want to see is the Incredible Hulk trying to batter through them.

Sounders lose, time to focus on MLS

0
Here's a recap.

Sure it would've been great for the USL Sounders to win the league championship in the final go. But after the announcement of the MLS team, I'm pretty sure minds have been on bigger and better things.

While small trophies are nice, filling out a roster and finding a coach are higher on the priority list I think. Click to continue reading...

Could This Be The Game He Needed?

0
Things could not have been worse for Ronaldinho coming into the latest edition of the Derby Della Madonnina.  He was still not at the level that people though he could be at, but then the big stab in his heart came midweek. Brazil coach Dunga left the AC Milan midfielder out of his 23-man callup for [. Click to continue reading...

Dempsey to leave Fulham?

9
He's started just one game this season, so who can blame the 25 year old?
"The coach here now is not the one who brought me in so it's difficult proving that I deserve to be on the field," the News of the World quoted Dempsey as saying.
No one wants to hear that we might lose a Yank in the Premiership, but I'd rather see him get playing time somewhere -- especially if he's going to be a veteran on the '10 W. Click to continue reading...

Henry upset, who's surprised?

2
Though he did get a goal against Espanyol.
Thierry Henry has revealed he will demand talks with Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola if he continues to be played out on the left wing for the Spanish club.
I don't think the Frenchman is trying to cause trouble. I just think he knows he's getting old and wants to be on the field. Click to continue reading...

Two great Aussie Coaches?

Gary Van Egmond is still the best, but Aurelio Vidmar is on the move...and quick.

Van Egmond's side were a goal down to Adelaide and having used their three subs and when Jason Hoffman got injured they were down to ten.

Jason Hoffman and the Jets.

1
Under 20's Aussie Coach Jan Versliejen recently hailed Jason Hoffman as one of the best players in his squad. Although I think it's fair to say he hasn't translated any of this form or confidence to his Jets performances yet.

Versleijen's next squad is due to be announced Monday for the upcoming ASEAN tournament. Click to continue reading...

Sounders win a wild one

0
You have to check out Goal Seattle's report of the game.

Apparently after a 2-1 Sounders win over Montreal in the first leg of the first round of the USL playoffs, the Impact coach went into the stands at Starfire and was getting into it with the fans.

The match was testy too, with a bunch of cards and chippiness. Click to continue reading...

Adelaide 2 v Newcastle 0 - Newcastle's legs collapse

0
Newcastle dropped their marquee Zora for this match (all the way out). Then lost Adam and Joel Griffiths to hamstring injuries, Joel's looks bad. I don't see why Joel isn't the lone striker. Anyway it is academic as he looks like he'll be out for 4 or so weeks. Disappointing foreign purchase Hakansson was the last subbed - coach looked cheezed. Click to continue reading...

Final Result: Chile-Mexico from the Coliseum

2

That a Juan Carlos Valenzuela own goal in the 75th minute gave Chile a 1-0 win over Mexico pretty much summed up the tenor of this game.

Neither team exhibited much rhythm and attacking opportunities were sparse - especially in a dull first half dominated (and I use the term loosely) by Mexico.
