Viva the Spanglish!

0

MLS Table Talk - Give Us The Damn Shield!

1
Well then. I suppose nothing says "give us the damn Supporters' Shield already" like stuffing the side right behind you and opening an eight point lead with just four games to go. All the Crew need to do now is avoid getting complacent before the playoffs kick off. Behind them, Chivas USA are making a sudden push to join the three team trailing pack consisting of the Revs, Fire, and Dynamo. Click to continue reading...

TFC - Dynamo Preview

0

Tomorrow marks Houston's second visit to Toronto. The reigning MLS Champs will be looking to extend their lead atop the Western Conference, while TFC will be hoping to keep their faint playoff hopes alive. In the Reds' short history, they have done surprisingly well against the Dynamo, beating them 1-0 at home in a rain soaked affair last May, and getting a point on the road in July.

League of the Week: Russia / Premjer Liga

1
Welcomski once again to League of the Week, and before we start, no - this probably won't be the last comrade-like gag in this article because yes - this week we're turning our attention towards Russia.

One of the summer's enduring and assumingly never-ending transfer stories was that surrounding Russian playmaker Andrei Arshavin. Inspiring performances at Euro 2008 earned him plaudits throughout Europe, where he starred as his country's dynamo in their success story at the tournament. As with any major talent that shines during an international tournament, speculation grew over Arshavin's future and whether he would be departing the Russian champions Zenit St Petersburg.

The storm blew and blew here at Nutmegged World Headquarters, and even though Dynamo will somehow have to fit a rescheduled L.A. Firpo game into their criminally crowded fixture slate, Houston still is surviving well.

Oh how nice it is to have good ol' injury back in the mix at Stamford Bridge.  Just three games into the Premier League season, and Chelsea are facing a mini injury crisis in midfield.

With Michael Ballack and John Obi-Mikel already struggling with knocks the later a muscle tear which sounds more serious than we are being led to believe the Blues suffered another blow over the weekend when midfield dynamo Michael Essien picked up a "serious" ankle injury in Ghana's World Cup qualifier with Libya.
