MLS/USL thread [R]

Of course we all hope he will, and still has plenty of time. Which is why the haters annoy me.

Interesting point. We expect alot out of him because we have seen him play for so long, it is like he is 30 years old. However, the really outstanding players are in Europe at a much younger age and cope very well. I wonder what Landon's true reasoning for staying in the US is.

Does he:
not feel that he is ready?
not care about Europe?
enjoy LA too much?

[ToonUSA]

Like San Jose counts?

Yes. We get 3 points. You are yet to obtain this feat.

I'd bet it's either 2 or 3.

Check with me this time tomorrow. :)

Tick tick tick...getting close to gametime.

I would say we were unlucky not to get the 3, but our finishing has been woeful all season. Dom has to do something about that, and quick.

And on a "total aside," LD is a ********ing twat. :)

Go celebrate with your team when you score rather than getting in the face of a guy who shouldered you and you fell to the ground holding your face, you little wannabe Henry clone. ********ing little shit.

The Galaxy are the Chelsea of MLS. Multiple players bitching at officials after every call that goes against them, getting in other people's faces for no real reason...a disgraceful representation of MLS to the rest of the world.

[ToonUSA]

Galaxy 3-2 Houston.

O wait, the hack referee and his henchman miss the ball crossing the line. I guess we'll settle for the 2-2.

And for the Landon haters that would be exhibit A on why he's the best American player ever.

Becks was phenomenal as well.

Piss off with that shite.

Ianni clobbered him out of nowhere. Absolutely busch league. Damn right he's gonna let him know what's up right after that ********er cheap shotted him, and he turns around and beats him to the ball for a goal.

And unlucky my arse. You were 2nd best for about 75 minutes.

The referee was one of the biggest hacks on record in that match. Let Houston get away with murder for most of the game. Whistled LA every ********ing time. Also, blow me with the disgraceful crap. Your bunch of clutch and grab thugs aren't much of defending champions if you can't carve up a liability ridden backline. Instead you chose to play 2nd fiddle and hack down every talented player you could.

Doesn't mean Donovan isn't a diving arrogant little shit. Let's call a spade a spade, eh?

Second best for 75 minutes my ass, the Gals got played off the park in the first half. That second half never happens if Houston's 2 or 3 up at the break rather than the 1 and you know it. Enjoy the point, and get ready for a eliminated-from-playoff-contention-ass-whoopin' in October. :)

And on a complete and utter aside, don't flame me.

[ToonUSA]

Uh, diving? If you were watching you would have seen Ianni drop a shoulder on him when he wasn't even looking. Do you have another example or feaux-example?

You're an LD hater, this is known. However, don't make up things trying to mire his great performance. There were no dives and his 2 goals were class.

Maybe the last 20 minutes of the 1st half. The 1st 20 was wide open and we had the better of the ball. The 2nd half was the simple fact that Guillit proved he is capable of observing games and making tactical changes. After the 2 halftime subs the Galaxy ran you completely off the pitch. You want to play the missed chances game we were right there.

And had a rightful goal not given. You lot are lucky to be heading home with the point, and btw you're last in the league.

And on a complete and utter aside, don't flame me.
:rolleyes:

Make inflammatory comments and then hide behind the "don't flame me" crap. How convenient.

You know, if you spout shit there's a decent chance people might spout it right back at you sweetheart.

Not to mention your ridiculous attempt at the high road claiming we're a poor representation of the league. What does it say about the league when the 2 time defending champions can only be described and thugs and cheats.

Actually, since LA is a "superclub". Isn't that how they are supposed to behave? I think the Eurosnobs will actually approve of this crap. :rolleyes:

He got shouldered and went down holding his face Henry style when his face wasn't struck.

His goals were class, his actions weren't (as usual). I don't hate the guy, I want to like him, actually. My respect for him just keeps dropping every time he opens his mouth on camera or acts like a jackass.

I'll take a point on the road, but it should have been 3 IMO. As to last in the league, we'll see where we are come October. 3 of 4 at home to start last year got us 4 points, and we've got 3 from 3 of 4 on the road to start this time around. We'll be there at the end and you know it, this is a marathon not a sprint. See you Oct. 18. :)

Not even going to dignify this with a comment.

Rep for you!

Yeah, that "don't flame me" comment left me scratching my head. Truth be told, from my point of view, ToonUSA didn't say anything worse than tigerdave did.

After both of your trash-talking all week, I knew this game would end in a draw though :)

I directed my ire at the Galaxy, he directed a portion of his ire at me. Surely as a fellow mod you'd recognize that.

And who the ******** are England? :D

1) No, I didn't read anything directed at you. He said you posted some shite, that's about it. What am I missing?
2) Your ire was directly aimed at Donovan, and thus indirectly aimed at ToonUSA, who is a big fan of Donovan. I honestly don't see the difference between the two inflammatory remarks.
