Admin Victor 10,947 Posted May 11, 2014 Author Admin Share Posted May 11, 2014 Damn it Atletico, could have signed, sealed, and delivered it by now. Next Sunday will be amazing.

Admin Victor 10,947 Posted May 13, 2014 Author Admin Share Posted May 13, 2014 Oh shit, Barca-Atletico moved to Saturday. Gotta feel for Arsenal, no one will be watching their FA Cup victory.

Admin Victor 10,947 Posted May 24, 2014 Author Admin Share Posted May 24, 2014 Heart-breaking for Atletico - 2 minutes from a historic win and then conceded and 3 more in another half an hour. That said, can't say Real are undeserving. Glad Atletico could take something from this season.

And who is that source exactly? Because many of the MLS sources/reporters just say things for the hell of gaining excitement (basically what all reporters do) except all the MLS guys are Eklunds.

Admin Victor 10,947 Posted May 29, 2014 Author Admin Share Posted May 29, 2014 I've heard that from somewhere else, can't remember where, I wouldn't be surprised. Not like Villa is a household name anymore. Well, not a household player. He's a big name, hence the MLS interest.

Admin Victor 10,947 Posted June 2, 2014 Author Admin Share Posted June 2, 2014 Apparently Lampard will be going there too. Came across a MLS replay today here and the quality is still a long way off.

Waxman got one correct! I wouldn't bank on him in the long run though. Victor, along long way off. The biggest issue MLS has is they employ grade school referees and the transition games are horrible!

Admin Victor 10,947 Posted June 2, 2014 Author Admin Share Posted June 2, 2014 I feel too many leagues are trying to catch up at once - if older players only went to MLS, perhaps there'd be a chance. But there's also Australia, Japan, China, various places like UAE, hell, even Turkey - talent pool gets diluted and no one really sees much improvement.

Seth 92 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Villa is still better than most players in the MLS, so it is still a rather big deal he came over. Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/1969-general-football-discussion/page/9/#findComment-80066 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOOM 8,758 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 An aging Dwight Yorke, Shinji Ono and Del Piero hardly make a dent in the player dilution pool, but I see your point. Australia doesn't have the financial grunt to attract players still close to good, it's more of a "come here and help develop a new league" type thing. Del Piero and Ono were helpful, but Dwight Yorke just wanted to bang chicks and hit the clubs. His nickname was "All-night Dwight".

I'd go there for the weather and the dingos, don't ever forget the dingos. Wait, are you saying you blame Dwight Yorke?
