We need to close them, and Rooney in particular, down faster. It seems to me that their game plan is to feed Rashford, Martial, and Lingard over the top. Gotta stop the supply.

Honestly the idea that commentators are unbiased is kind of ludicrous to me. I wish American sports commentators wouldn't kid themselves as they do. Have you ever heard Dick Vitale call a Duke game? You'd think Dickie V is Coach K's dad.

Fuming. That aside I agree that creating instability in the management role might make a talent exodus more likely. What I wouldn't give to be a fly on the wall when the players talk about Martinez. However, in the last days of the Second Mourinho Era this season it was widely observed that...

Can't wait for Lennon/Deu to expose Ivanovic all game long. Wouldn't be mad if Besic marks Costa out of the game either.

Working hard Carlos. It's raining here today so for once you shouldn't feel envious of our weather. How's Wales Carlos?

Would it make sense to use Barry/McCarthy for open-playing teams like Spurs/Arsenal/Leicester, and use Besic/McCarthy for bus-parking/defensive minded teams like WBA? That way Old Man Barry gets a rest every now and again, and we get the additional speed and forward firepower to break down a...

Yup. Mainly excited for a 9:15 AM kickoff rather than the traditional 4:45 or 7 AM.

I've got the day off thanks to Messrs. Washington and Lincoln. Insert Revolution/Colonists joke here. So I've been icing my shin splints and not doing much of anything. Having an iced coffee at the moment.

Glad to hear it. I guess it is pretty cold in Wales. Be sure to let us California toffees know if/when you make it out here.

Good, Carlos. Sweltering day in San Diego, unseasonably warm but not unenjoyable. How are you doing, Carlos?

Only in an oatmeal context is this ever acceptable--and that could debatably called "cereal," although I put it in a different category. All other cereals require cold milk.

4-1 Everton, brace from Lukaku, one from Barkley (assist by Niasse), and one from Lennon. 3-0 streak gone but differential maintained.

Fair point. That would be excellent if we get a few cheap goals from Lukaku just embarrassing West Brom's CBs. I'm just worried that Pulis might park the bus to the nth degree and we won't be able to do an aerial assault and will have to do more to unlock them.

Even though Oviedo is criticized for being out of position at times, I was impressed with the sheer amount of crosses he blocked against Stoke, not sure what the final count was. As much as I love Baines, I feel as though I've seen many replays with Baines' left leg kicking ineffectually in the...

Marketing marketing marketing. As much as I do enjoy feeling like being part of a secret society when I walk around in my kit, it would be nice for the prospective owners to seize on the fact that EFC is already thought of in some ways as "America's team" and aggressively market to win over new...

When Clevs first came into the squad he was pretty excellent at picking out long balls with great accuracy to Lukaku and others. (See, e.g., his assist to the second goal in the first match against Stoke, which is hard to remember given what a dumpster fire that match turned out to be) Those...

I'm proud to say, that as a San Diegan, the craft beer craze arguably started here (although Portland, San Francisco, and Seattle would all like to claim that as well). I live quite near Ballast Point, which just got bought for $1 billi(!), but still delivers an incredible product. Just heard...

Just read this myself and wanted to post it but I'm happy to see someone else took notice as well. Bout time we got some shine in the US media. I guess all it takes is a movie appearance and a potential American takeover to get in the LA Times.
