    I bet JK will be hearing about this and will have something to say both publically and privately to Jozy. If ever some mentorship from a fellow player and ex-striker is needed, this is the time.

    He'd be starting every match in MLS/Holland/France/etc, so it's not really a fair point.

    And if a frog had wings it wouldn't bump its ass when it hopped. The point is, he's a senior international playing in the frickin' reserves. :cautious:

    would he really be starting in France? I wanna say YES but not absolutely sure. Why is MLS proposed? He won't be going back there for several years and no one should try to convince him otherwise.

    Sucks. His teammates are accused of being lazy drunks and he gets a bad head for being forced to play with amateurs and held to accord for it.

    Why? His buddy Edu is back and look how that is turning out. He needs play time... with adults.

    You are basing your entire impression of Jozy not on his many year career for club and country but on a tweet from a guy at a S'land U21 match? I think that's kind of nutty, but thats just me I guess.

    Because Jozy has proven he can succeed at a high level in a top 10 Euro league and still has a lot of growing and youth on his side. Edu is much much older and wouldn't likely land on a team that Jozy would/will. Thus, MLS is a much better choice for Edu.

    Worked out fine for Eddie Lewis, tbh.

    Sure. But is it really that hard to believe?

    Edu hadn't played in like 8 months or so. He should have signed with that Turkish club full time or tried France.

    I would question a S'land's fan ability to discern interest in any living creature.

    In other news, Poyet has now brought on Scocco so I'm sure the damn is about to burst.

    Maybe he'll have Johnson play with the U21's next week so they'll have a chance to win a few.

    I think Mr. P has really lost the plot, as they say. What a mess.

    But all of Spurs did! Talk about lack of effort and embarrassing.

    Can Poyet last the day?

    Hell, we do not know yet. He may have seen he was out of the first team selection and asked to play in the U21 game. Until someone explains it, there is no telling at that club.
