Seattle Sounders FC clearly wanted one player in today's Re-Entry Draft Stage Two when they made
a last minute trade with the Vancouver Whitecaps for the number one pick. Moments later they
selected MLS veteran and former D.C. United player Marc Burch. Burch's 2011 salary is reported to

The first has him lounging by a pool in front of two Italian carabinieri and the Champions Cup, won
the night before, besides him.

ALAJUELA, Costa Rica --The Los Angeles Galaxy find themselves locked in a three-team dog fight
for the final two places atop the CONCACAF Champions League's Group A.
With Alajuelense, Morelia, and the Galaxy currently tied at six points apiece, the Galaxy's
match in Costa Rica may prove decisive if the MLS club is to qualify for the knockout rounds.
The fourth edition of the CONCACAF Champions League kicks off this week with the first leg of the
preliminary round ties. There are new teams in the competition from national associations that have
not been represented before. After last season's final between Real Salt Lake and Monterrey, there
is increased awareness of the competition in the USA and a desire to do well in the competition.
The landscape of club soccer in Wisconsin continues to change.
Three of Wisconsin's clubs are moving their top Under-13 through Under-18 boys teams to the
National Premier Leagues, a new U.S. Club Soccer competition that starts this fall and concludes

"Carlo [Ancelotti] gave me a magnificent bottle of wine. But I immediately told him there is no
point in giving such a wonderful gift if he then fails in the final. In fact, I told him I would
only drink his wine once I see him lifting the Champions Cup." —Alex Ferguson, ahead of
2005's Champions League final
Those who follow Liverpool are hardly a monolithic block.
Tyler Lassiter's life has changed quite a bit over the past year. He's gone from collegiate athlete

consider the norm.

An MLS team has not won the CONCACAF Champions League (née Champions Cup) since 2000 and one has
never graced the FIFA World Club Cup*. Last night, Real Salt Lake strengthened their bid to do both
at once by making the big federation final with a 3-2 aggregate victory over semifinal second leg
hosts Saprissa.
Since CONCACAF redesigned the Champions Cup into the Champions League MLS sides have struggled.
Except for one, and with even a poor performance tonight they could still advance to the CCL final.
They face former Sounders opponent Saprissa, down in Costa Rica, but start with a two goal
advantage and no away goals against.
There have been few, if any, managers in the history of the British game who could match Bob
Paisley's genius in spotting players. The man who built three Champions' Cup winning teams did so
not by outspending others but by identifying before anyone else players with the talent to play in
his sides.
The CONCACAF Champions League resumes this week with an interesting fixture list as the
competition commences its knockout stages. There are two all-Mexican affairs as well as an
all-American encounter and an intriging match-up involving the record champions of Costa Rica and
Honduras. Stoppage Time International Football Blog looks ahead to the last eight
clashes.
The 2011 MLS season doesn't start for another month, but on Tuesday the Columbus Crew and Real Salt
Lake will start their respective seasons with the first leg of the CONCACAF Champions League

Cup in Japan.

will contest the competition, with two-legged ties in the first two rounds, and single-match
knockouts in the semifinals and final. The top three teams will appear in the preliminary round of

For months, the long-promised revival of the New York Cosmos, once the crown jewel of the North
American Soccer League, has been the elephant in the room of MLS expansion, if everyone in the room
