I profess to know little about this sale. Â I don't follow the USL much, but I do recognize it's
massive importance to the viability of the game in America. Â Without it, we would be in a far
worse place. Â Read more after the jump...
I'm going to defer to Kartik Krishnaiyer who has been on the case from day one and has good
knowledge of the sale, and it's implications.

There are a number of interesting things going on in the Yanks Soccer world today, so it's time
for us to catch up on all the things going on. Â More after the jump...
-To start off, I need to pimp three articles I have written for goal.com recently. Â The first
is the new outlook of the US World Cup Roster based on the post Azteca fallout.

Two of the most well regarded US U-17 prospects are set to pack their bags and head of to join
Hoffenheim's youth academy. Â Joseph Gyau and Charles Renken who have spent the last two years at
Residency will both head to Germany next month. Â Read on...I really like this move a lot. Â
Hoffenheim are a team on the rise backed by SAP creator Dietmar Hopp, and the two will be in a
competitive environment that will nurture their development.

I like to read the blogs to get the pulse of the fan. Â The pulse after Jozy Altidore's debut
for Hull was pretty unanimous... he's destined for stardom. Â Woah... let's back it up. Â Let's
stop and think for a second. Â Read on...
Jozy has fantastic skill. Â We all know that. Â He's big, strong, quick, and he uses all of
those tools well, but I think a tempering of expectations is in order.

Have you ever just read something satirical and been struck by how perfectly it fits or
describes something. Â The person who organizes some local pickup matches sent me a Facebook
message patronizing the joke that is the New York Red Bulls. Â I thought it was perfect, and know
you'll enjoy it...
Summer's ending soon, the high schools have started fall practices, and a lot of us will go back
to college, so I thought I'd organize a big end to the summer while everyone was still around.

Luis Gil, the fifteen year old striker from California is close to joining Arsenal's youth

 After the jump there is a profile of Luis...
This would certainly be a great move for the youngster.

OH MY! Â I know Charlie is eccentric and an avid dancer, but really... was this necessary. Â
It's not inappropriate, rather, it's just a bit over the top. Â Check it out after the jump...
I'm getting out of here before I start dancing myself to some Eurobeats!

We all saw this coming didn't we. Â It had been talked about last winter, and it finally
happened today. Â Davies shunned approaches from other teams in France as well as teams from
Holland and Germany to join up with Sochaux. Â Davies had already agreed to a contract with
Sochaux, but was merely awaiting a fee to be agreed upon.

We all remember a day eight years ago don't we. Â It was a 3-2 loss to Honduras at RFK stadium,
the last home loss to a CONCACAF opponent. Â I'm going to be running an in game commentary here, so

I didn't see it coming. Â Milan kept quiet this whole time, but sprung up to sign the 27 year
old when it counted. Â Oguchi Onyewu joins Milan on a Bosman Free-Transfer. Â Read on...
This move is simply fantastic. Â Gooch was looking for a high level league where he would be
challenged day in and day out, and be able to compete for trophies.

Bob Bradley apparently was not so pleased with his central midfielders in the game vs. Grenada.
 Feilhaber has been called into camp ahead of the toughest group match against Honduras at RFK. Â

Does this spell the end of the Beckerman-Pause tandem in the middle of the park... probably.

I was so pleased yesterday that Oguchi was ready to move to Ajax, so this news wasn't exactly
what i was hoping for. Â While Real Madrid will be a Champions League contender, and a La Liga
title contender as well, this rumor should do nothing but frighten you. Â Read on...
If Gooch were to Join Real Madrid, it would not be as a starter, and if we've seen anything for
our National Team, players must be playing regularly.

I'm giddy with excitement. Â Gooch, to the club that produces players of the highest quality. Â
I could go on for hours stating the fantastic players that have come out of that club, but I'll
spare you. Â Read on...Oguchi Onyewu showed why he is such a great player at the Confederations
Cup, and Ajax's reported interest is a fitting reward for a great tournament.

Let's be perfectly honest here: Grenada... it was Grenada. Â A country with a population of
90,000. Â Were they ever going to threaten the US, no. Â Was the match ever in doubt from the
opening whistle, no. Â With that in mind, the penchant was on the US to attack from the onset,
impose their will upon a week Grenada.
