I'll start this off by saying that I'm not usually one to perpetuate rumors (and this could easily be a hoax), but we love discussing the USA's jerseys here at Project 2010, so this seemed relevant. Over at Big Soccer, we saw some mock ups of what might possibly be the jersey the USA will wear in South Africa, so we thought we'd pass it along.

Just when you thought the Italian tactician and master of success couldn't get any more focused; England manager Fabio Capello has banned a fans' and players' favorite: the World Cup song.

Not content with prohibiting WAGs from attending the England base next summer, Capello is again trying to take the Englishness out of English football by restricting the players' voices.

Belleza! Napoli's Marek Hamsik and The Pied Piper of Higuain both netted in unexpected braces to steer their teams to a neat victory last night. Both of them deserve our Sunday Senor cap for this week... especially Hamsik who scored the decisive winner against Juventus.

The day after goofing around in the snow and getting their free Audis, Real Madrid were thoroughly thumped 4-0 in the first leg of their fourth round Copa del Rey tie with third division side Alcorcon. The loss has been a staggering and embarrassing blow, which has not only put their Copa campaign in serious doubt, but has manager Manuel Pellegrini on the verge of getting sacked.

The Real Madrid boys were out yesterday afternoon frolicking in the snow with their new Audis and making nice for the press call.

After the flash bulbs took a breather, the team was given instructions on how to drive in the snow. Incredible. Who knew that it snowed in Madrid?

The Gerrards took in the Liverpool v. Manchester United game on Sunday as spectators, since Steven is still nursing that groin injury.

Hee. We said "groin".

Since it's been awhile since these two were last photographed/spotted out together, we're not entirely sure the reason behind the long faces.

As most of us already know, the city of Madrid's "Olympic Bidding 101: Hot Men/Sex Sells" ploy didn't go as planned.

Still, their scheme wins high marks from us because we've uncovered these visually pleasing stills of Raul at an Olympics presser. In fact, hot close-up shots of this man are clinically proven to naturally raise body temperatures and stimulate happy hormone production by 10%.

Promoted Championship teams entering the Premier League transition in different ways. Some settle straight away and show why they belong in the league. Others take longer and end up struggling to survive, battling in the relegation flight. Then there are the special cases: teams that surprise everyone and do extremely well with relegation not even a factor to consider during their first season; or conversely they are completely out of their league and winning is not a realistic goal.

Who's in charge of images at ESPN Soccernet? First they got confused about Oguchi Onyewu, and now they can't identify Real Madrid legend Raúl either? The image above (from Raúl's stats page here) appears to be Real's other Raúl, Albiol rather than González Blanco. Thanks to John for pointing that out to us via tips[at]theoffside[dot]com.

Not since Sean Dundee (joke) have us Liverpool fans been quite so enthusiastic to see a player get on the field of play wearing the beloved Reds jersey than with the belated anticipation of Alberto Aquilani finally being fit enough to kick a ball. Note the nifty trick he appears to have pulled off in the first image and the way he appears to be hypnotizing Martin Skrtel in the second.

There might be room for a third blogger here on Lyon Offside. Emphasis on the might.

Inara and John aren't going anywhere, but they have asked me to find a third writer to help them out, keep the posts coming, and generally be part of a deadly OL blogging trident.

However, Because Inara and John have set such excellent standards here, I'm setting the bar very very high.

We're taking a look at the USA men's soccer jerseys of the last 25 or so years, not only to provide a bit of history, but also as a bit of a refresher before looking toward the future of the USA's kit. My main complaint about the USA kit is that there's no continuity. Unlike most national team kits, the design has changed drastically each time adidas or Nike has unveiled their latest designs.
