Yanks Abroad

Will have to keep an eye on this one. I wonder how Pochettino will promote his development without playing time.

More youth news. Looks like Weston McKennie under consideration for a move to center back for Shalke 04. The manager is trying him out their during the team's winter friendlies.

FREE EMMO!!!!!!

 

From the "failing New York Times," no less.

 

Hyndman's agent sucks!!! How is he stuck playing for Bournemouth reserves for the entire 17-18 season?? The kid is saying all the right things, but unless there are a rash of injuries the manager only views him as a player for 'the future'.

 

Just saw Wolfsburg's lineup for today and noticed no John Anthony Brooks. The translation app I used isn't very good, but this basically says he's got another injury, a knee, apparently. This kid is more fragile than a cheap rocks glass.

I read this the other day. I certainly hope he doesn't end up in the MLS. This also begs the larger question of why some youth players in the Championship - who have never been regular starters for their club - think a move to a Premier League club is in their best interest.

Hyndman's agent is the Wasserman Media Group. Their highest value client is Dvick Origi, lately of Scousers, but currently on loan to Wolfsburg. They have a LOT of MLS clients. 2nd is Nacer Chadli of West Brom, formerly of Spuds. Then you've got Ryan Thomas of Pec Zwolle in the Eriedivision, followed by Matt Miazga, Leigh Griffiths, Omar Gonzalez, Sacha Kljestan, Dax McCarty, C.J. Sapong, Darlington Nagbe, Kellyn Acosta, Dom Dwyer and Gyasi Zardes. Methinks I smell a rat.

 

While his injury history probably means he'll never reach his full potential, have to feel good for Aron Johannsson working his way back for Werder Bremen. If he stayed healthy, he would've been our #1 striker, and we'd be going to Russia.

Edit: Aron started today in Bremen's German Cup match and scored with lovely chip (Leverkusen came back and won 4-2)

Saw this a while back.

 

Okay, I'm taking Danny Williams' name off my revenge list created after last year's playoff against Reading. That wardrobe malfunction is adequate suffering.

 

Smh, it’s a slow 2018 so far as this thread has gone totally nuts

At least we can say unequivocally that Danny’s favorite Arnold Schwarzeneggar movie is Commando
