Futbol today

Ok. I feel like this should be explained…my futbol teams, and why I like em.

Ok. First and for most I congratulate Man U for a thumping of mostly everyone this season. Ronaldo is a freak and showed it this year. Sorry Kaka but you just haven’t dominated lately. Oh this reminds me of Messi or Barca in general…man how bad did they look towards the end of the season? Pretty bad. Good news for them is that most of the team will be sold away and perhaps a better TEAM will be put out on the pitch next season. Ok back to the Prem. Reading, Birmingham, and our favorite shit team, Derby go down.


I actually am a small fan of Feilhaber ever since his goal in the gold cup but for some reason, mainly I think his attitude, kept him from seeing any significant time on the field. Not only was he limited to the reserves in Derby he hasn’t been seeing time on the Nats either. Rumor was though at the Olympic quals he and Adu got into it and Benny attacked Adu because of some “im better than u complex”. And needles to say despite Adu not being the savior of US Futbol, which was unfair in the first place, Adu is class. Hes only 18, hes getting better and the mere training at Benfica has proved valuable. Just watch his set pieces and you will understand. So the coach chose adu over benny and named him Capt. NOW Benny has been named to the roster of the new U-23’s that’s going to be playing a tourney in Italy which can be seen on FSC.

Back to the point. I am a Fulham fan and proud to be one. Mainly my interest was founded in the deuce. Of course. Dempsey is just sick. So in the last couple of fixtures he hasn’t played SUPER well he still made the starting 11 and continues to perform for the Nats. I also like the fact he’s from Texas and seems like a bad ass.

Fulamerica as they are sometimes referred to also have Bocanerga who for whatever reason has fallen out of form for his club, Keller whom I originally thought was too old and bald to play….but a recent bout of fitness showed I was wrong. EJ…ok let’s get to this. I was originally excited to see the great letdown travel across the pond to see what real futbol is like. Naturally Ej had a hard time on the ball and against defenders. But. Its natural he did go from MlS to the EPL. BIG difference. If he learns to play with strength like another much younger than he—JOZY— then maybe that little addition of strength and his pace on the ball will keep him seeing minuets for the whites next season. And we will never forget the Bloody one and his super stupid long injury that had him back and ready at the end to fight relegation. Brian “Capt. America” Mc “FREAKIN” Bride. Ok that might have been excessive but he is a legend.


The rest of fulham is also great. Well maybe not great. But they survived. Most impart because of Bullard. Ever since his return to the Cottage the guy has been god send in set pieces. And thanks to his free kick Murphy connected with his cabesazo as I like to call it to capture maximum points last Sunday. And because of this effort I bought a Fulham 05-06 home kit. It was worth it. EBAY. So COME ON YOU WHITES!!FFC.

Separate from my joy of Fulhams recent fitness I was also excited by a story I read in the Liverpool news paper…cant remember the name. EVERTON with our favorite keeper in Timmy will be making a bid for whom I believe is the true next big talent for the US. Despite Altidore being a beast and Adu’s newfound form…Dempsey being a freestyle badass and all the others like Klejstan-he sick, Szetela, Edu, Orozco who is fucin cool, BRADLEY is sheer talent and grit.

At first I was doubtful too about the coaches son. But ive had the privilege of watching a few of his games online for heerenven and believe that if Everton land the young scoring pheonom from the erevidese or whatever they will have added a monster. He not only can drop 19 goals at 20, but he can defend the best of them as he has for the nat team, and more importantly he doesn’t give a shit who you are as evident in the hard tackles against Kaka, the Toothed on Ronaldihno when the Nats faced Brazil last year or whenever that was. I can’t wait to watch him next season if he makes it to Everton-my second team. That would be sweet.



MLS-dc united fan cause I love DC despite united sucking so far.
MEXICO- America cause of Uriel.
ITALY-none. Not a big fan of the series-a don’t like the style of play.

Ok other than that...my rant on futbol as I shall spell it, is over. Im hungry and going to go eat something. And remember, im person, you’re a person, that person over there is a person, and every person deserves to be treated like a person
