With reports at the end of last week indicating that the English FA is considering playing some
fixtures abroad, we have been curious as to what the MLS response would be to the proposal. It

MLS Deputy Commissioner Ivan Gazidis welcomes the plan in theory, but cautions that MLS and Soccer
United Marketing run soccer promotions in the USA and as such would like to be involved:
"We are the largest promoter of international soccer in North America and clearly we would like to
be involved.
It was another excellent Saturday of Premier League action this week. Maybe not quite to the
high standards set during the opening weekend but still some great goals and last minute drama. How
many times have we seen a certain Steven Gerrard rescue Liverpool in the dying moments of games?
