So the U.S. team breaks my heart once again :rolleyes: You'd think I would be used to it by now, but it still sucks! What the hell was Orozco thinking throwing an elbow! I mean, sure it wasn't horrible, but he should know that any kind of thrown elbow is going to get you booked! They fought towards the end to get back into it, but you could see that they were definately tired. Oh well, guess it's time to get ready for the WCQs now.
I know, here I was so excited after watching them play the Dutch, which i think was the best match a US youth team has played in my memory, and then they lose that win on a dumb foul right at the end. But I still believed in them, and then they lose and are out because of a dumb red card right at the start of the match. Still they fought and almost came back, but that almost makes it worse lol because I kept believing they could do it.

Still I think we had a good showing, I was talking to some people on another Arsenal board, and they were impressed with the US lol. I hope this gets some of the players like Holden, Wynne, and Edu some international exposure and maybe some European club will come in for them.

seria a starts in 2 weeks and they have a CL match they already have a big lead in, so he might play then. i dont know how much time he will get at juve in serie a though, they already have del Piero who is like the same type of player.

I'm betting that the final is Belgium- Argentina:) our belgian team has a good chance to beat nigeria! The way they played yesterday was amazing! showing that much effort, they're really a close team on and off the pitch and that's what's making their team so strong :D


Gooooooooooooo Belgium :D
