So says L.E. Eisenmenger of the ever curious US Soccer Players website, in an interesting but rather speculative piece about the supposed lack of sophistication of MLS fans about the international soccer world, starting with the claim that "MLS fans may be unaware of international rivalries and even of the relationship between MLS and the National Team.

let's not all get on top of him, we're not katie price after all.

It did feel like a loss; and this just goes to show how much the bar has been raised this year in terms of ambition. I personally think the whole thing allows us to see the true nature of being a spurs fan. Firstly we generally find ourselves frustrated at the fact that until recently and during that one season when Martin Jol forced the article, we've always found ourselves looking at the prospect of finishing mid-table with a chance of flexing our muscles in the UEFA cup.

Just when you thought that the Donovan/Beckham fued was over another one starts up. The two just learned last Friday that they will be playing against each other in the opening round of the 2010 FIFA World Cup games in South Africa this June. Donovan will be playing for team USA with Beckham on the opposing team England.

Has Terry lost his edge as leader of the national team?

I should have gone to the basketball game.
A great first half, but an awful second half. And Liverpool lose despite taking the lead thanks to said awful second half.

We face Aston Villa in the Christmas period this season and we faced them last campaign around the same time.
At the moment Aston Villa, like last year, are flying high. I have every reason to believe that they can last the pace this time around.
About 12 months ago I had plenty of Villa supporters coming on this very site and lets be honest, they were giving it large!

This week's little Scottish beauty is Rangers Bluebelle Ashlee Lowe. Ashlee is a real sports fan as she's studying sports coaching at Uni. Have we mentioned she's a massive Rangers fan?

What a game of football that was.
A good atmosphere. Two very good sides pitted against each other. Good goalkeeping. Strong defensive play. Wonderful, high quality attacking football. Some chippy moments. Players hobbling off. And a penalty miss.
Not to mention a very important three points in the context of other results today that breaks the run of seven consecutive league draws.

Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard is delighted to welcome silky striker Fernando Torres back to first-team duty after the Spaniard cemented his return during Wednesday evening's 2-1 loss to Fiorentina.
Torres, despite accumulating an impressive goal-haul this season - he has scored 10 in the Premier League alone - has been out of action for the past five weeks due to a groin injury.

Yesterday's results have made today's game at Anfield all the more interesting. Not that a game against the Mugsmashers is ever anything but a chance for the Arsenal players to avenge the smashing of my mug so many years ago, but it makes life at the top of the table much more fun.

Aston Villa actually moved above us into third with their 1-0 win over United, although they have played two more games.

Manchester United's versatility could be key to them overhauling Chelsea at the top of the Premier League table, according to one midfielder.
Darren Fletcher has seen his side battle with an injury crisis, with 14 senior players unavailable for United's 3-1 Champions League victory over Wolfsburg last week.

I was quite frustrated after the Burnley result as you must have noticed from my review. But I didn't say the title hopes were over and if you are a regular reader you will have noticed that I am extremely pro-Arsene and have always talked about keeping the faith.

Over the last couple of days I have read some articles and comments talking about how our hopes are over and many of our players are completely useless.

League 2 Saturday 19th December 2009
This would have been my last match at Whaddon Road for 2009. Unfortunately commitments mean I will miss Boxing Day's match against Bournmouth. So much can happen between now and 9th January 2010 when we entertain Hereford.
It's the mid-point of the season and the process of selecting a new manager is underway.

Short but eye-opening quote from Cristiano Ronaldo in today's Marca: "Tengo la ambición de llegar a ser el mejor jugador de la historia". In English please Cristiano: "I have an ambition to become the best player in history." Is that arrogant? I say not. If C-Ron had said he was the best ever, then yes, that would [.

It's not even 1pm and I'm just about to head off to Old Trafford for tonight's game against Wigan...ahh the joys of being a London red.

But before I set of for the marvellous 5 hour journey through the snowy midlands, I thought I'd try and highlight a few pointers of how we can, and inevitably should, improve from the Hull game a couple of days ago.

He has been quite this game. Fit on scraps. But when this falls through you kinda knew, YOU KINDA KNEW where it was gonna end.

Martin Hugh Michael O'Neill, former Celtic Manager with whom a UEFA cup finalist, a European Cup winner with Nott Forest as a player, has had only one ambition in life ever since he took over the reigns at Aston Villa.

The Roberto Mancini era is underway at Manchester City and hefty expectations abound. Between the transfer money at his disposal, and the ambition of City's owners, Mancini has quickly embraced the ambitious mentality, declaring intent for a top four finish and a league title challenge.
