During this long PFC off-season, while on hiatus from the team and on-field play, there are many
steps you can take on your own, even indoors, to better improve your game. Incorporate these
simple, yet effective, ball drills in your overall plan.
Wall Drills: It's as simple as the name in theory, but it can be essential to
improving ball skills.

early in the second half.

This week the teams of the United Soccer League First Division were meeting in Beaverton, OR

reports coming out of this meeting is talking about a possible hiatus for the USL Second Division.
There are some facts to bring that truth out.

Big Story
The future of Rafa Benitez dominates the British press this morning, as
Liverpool slumped to their sixth defeat in seven games and fingers are being
jabbed once again: former Liverpool star Ronnie Whelan suggests Rafa does not care about the
Premier League; Sam Wallace concludes that Rafa is too clever for his own good; John Ley looks at
the facts unnecessarily needed to prove Liverpool have had a poor start; and David Hytner looks at
the club's growing injury crisis, the one mitigating factor that seems to be saving Rafa.

Deep Cuts took a brief hiatus yesterday, for a couple of different reasons: one, I was forced to do
The Man's bidding with no real break, and two, the Internet failed to deliver anything of real...

I won't write what I wanted to write after watching the Kansas City game, because the more I
kicked it around, it was a trite and cliche angle. The game was exciting, and the team fought as
hard as they could (in the second half). Reckless desperation is always pretty fun to watch, but as
DCUMD noted, a lack of defensive concentration (which is not a skill but an effort) ended our
season.

We like Mr. Vargas because he... likes Mutu.
Continuing on with our brief hiatus of the regular format TTO, we're celebrating/reflecting upon
a few of the many thightastic offerings that went flexed during the last two evenings of Champions
League action.
It's really a time for browsing, contemplating and pursuing the goods.

Time is an inconvenience between football matches. Who said that? Albert Camus? Nah - it was
actually my mate Rob from Grimsby - but you can best appreciate that sort of sentiment if you come
from such a place. In Spain, however, some extraordinary stuff again this weekend. Who needs beach
balls when you've got La Liga?

It's weird to say that its been another quick week for me here but it has, this week has flown
by. Tonight's links and thoughts may end up being a quickie. I had some things planned for the day
and for the week for that matter but I never got around to some of them. Blame it on time getting
away from me and my normal day job.

I'm back from the long weekend in Austin. I decided to go a head and catch up on this last night
instead of just writing a bunch of posts about the weekend that I missed. Now that I am caught up
on everything thanks to some highlights and some DVR I felt like starting with the weekly power
rankings before I got into anything else.

Major League Soccer
A common complaint about Major League Soccer is its failure or unwillingness to observe FIFA
International breaks. As recently as this month we have seen MLS matches played at the same time as
crucial World Cup Qualifiers involving the United States National Team, this despite earlier
indications from MLS that the League was going to pay closer attention to these FIFA breaks during
the 2009 season.

We're back into Premier League football this weekend after the international hiatus. There are
already strong cases for 'must have' players, even after only four games. Here we take a look at
the most compelling...

This information comes directly from Marc Webber of the Vancouver Province.

-------------------------------------
VANCOUVER — Before Monday, the United Soccer Leagues' Team Owners' Association was a
relatively-unknown entity.
That changed when the group fired a salvo expressing "extreme disappointment" in Nike's decision
to sell the USL to NuRock Soccer Holdings last week, and made public its desire to pursue "all
league options for the 2010 season and beyond.

As it turns out, today is also the third anniversary of the podcast! But because my nine-month
hiatus yielded on four other episodes in the past year, there won't be an outtake clip show like
there was in 2007 and 2008.
Also, it wasn't until after I put this together yesterday that I realized that there's an
Americana theme running through all four acts.

American Lance Armstrong seems to be channeling Paolo Maldini these days by hanging tough with
