Today's match between the Vancouver Whitecaps and the Seattle Sounders isn't about a trophy (though it will influence the Cascadia Cup). It would be easy to say it is about rivalry, as the competition between these cities within soccer goes back nearly 40 years and 125 games. Instead though, it is about standings.

Did the first half happen? Only about one-third of the highlight package of last night's Seattle Sounders 2-0 win are from that first 45 minutes. It includes "highlights" like FC Dallas player Fabian Castillo sprinting by Zach Scott and slamming the ball into the side net. There's Mauro Rosales getting two opportunities on goal from short range and somehow not finishing.

For the second straight game Colorado was shutout in a loss. This time it was only a 1-0 loss, actually one of our better games in Seattle as you'll see below, but you only need to give up 1 goal if you can't score.
Honestly Seattle should have been up at least 1 within the first 15-20 minutes.

Saturday the Sounders did exactly what the coaching staff asked them to do. They won a road point. The result and the gameplan were as cold and calculated as a professional foul. Sigi Schmid's roster choices, substitution pattern and tactical approach to the game were consciously designed to earn a point and potentially steal a win.

Exhibit 318 in the "this is why we don't panic when we're not 7th in November" file. Fulham, despite a slowish run recently, demolished an in-form Bolton team on their own patch. We're an inconsistent team, no doubt about it, but a lot of football teams are. And when we're good, we really can be very good.

Dalglish to Blame for Liverpool Collapse - originally posted on Soccerlens.com

Liverpool crumble to new lows after losing at the Stadium of Light. The reds now have 39 points from 27 games, the very similar stats they had last season as well minus the heavy spending this summer. What is more shocking is that despite spending 40 odd million just on attacking options (Not to forget the 58 million spent on Carroll and Suarez in January 2011) the club has only been able to score mere 30 goals, 5 less than premier league current leader Robin Van Persie alone.
