    I miss the kit that they wore back when McBride/Dempsey were at the club.

    Good for him. I don't believe he will ever play at EPL due to lack of athleticism. Would be welcome at MLS I guess. Even less athletic Shipp is doing fine here.

    Pfft MLS. Yeah right. He will play on some relegation fodder team in La Liga well before MLS. He would be useless in MLS kick n run soccaball.

    I hope he's getting a shot to make the squad and make more than a few appearances. He quietly had a great U20 WC and we need more true playmakers in the pool. We still don't have any young ones other than one Christian Pulisic.

    I'm thinking he picked up an injury a few minutes after that goal, b/c the match report says he came off with 10 minutes to go and Fulham played with 10 men. DLT hasn't played in the two friendlies since. Fulham has three more preseason friendlies including tomorrow against West Ham and Saturday against Darmstadt, so let's hope he gets into one of those.

    No idea if DLT will be a part of it, but their friendly against West Ham today at 1pm eastern is available to stream on ESPN3 via watchespn and the ESPN app.

    Not in the 18 for the League Cup game against Wycombe. Chatter on Twitter indicates that he may still be injured.

    "“I was a bit unlucky at the beginning of the season, I was injured during pre-season and I’ve been out since but now I’m back in training so hopefully it’s onwards and upwards from here.”

    Nice. That's his first action of the year. They're losing 3-0 at the moment, though.

    Its one thing that he's not playing for the first team, but he has one appearance for the U-23's this season. I understand he was injured earlier this season, maybe he got reinjured? Seems so strange that they'd just completely stop giving him minutes with the reserves.

    It's worth noting that the U23s have only had one game since his first appearance on 9/25.
