    Another edition of this exciting thread


    Here is Guatemala target Transfer in recent repots locally, things are nothing concrete just rumors so don't get you panties in bunch USA futbol

    Freddy Thompson >Chivas Usa, MLS ( Try out again, 2nd chance now that he is healthy)

    Marvin Avila> DC United, C CREW, KC wizards , MLS

    Hernan Sandoval> MLS Club undefined

    MLS has been a place for Guatemalans to play soccer and do well but it needs to be that stepping stone instead the last resort.
    Guys like Avila should be playing in england in the next 3 years, Sandoval when healthy should be in the Mid tier Euro leagues like belgium, Denmark, Sweden or Poland. Freddy T should be in Austria where he will thrive with his certain abilities.

    Another Guy i thought should be getting interest i thought should Be Contreras incredible playmaker, make a full complete recovery and fitness quickly and is back as possible prospect to leave Guatemala. last i heard from him is that he was being linked to the C Crew ,

    wtf? with beck's and ********van at 400k each (only ammount of their salaries that count towards the cap) and Ruiz at 500k that 1.3 million of 2.2 million cap on just 3 players.

    thats a shame that cerritos will be playing in the US 3rd Division wow.

    Dennis Alas in the USl 1 is a stepping stone to Many MLS Clubs getting him believe me, Especially with a new side like the Rail hawks

    Cheyo should move to the ES league Juggernaut IMHO and do it on the INTL level and Seal a contract that way

    but he could battle for a spot on a CR club and thats what i fear

    I hope these two guys the best, they really talented. But i tend to like Freddy more. Always have. To me Avila is way to skinny, he will get pushed around. Jeez Chapin you should really eat some more frijoles con queso y crema!

    Hes too old, his time is up. He use to be known as one of the best Forwards in MlS but he is not very good anymore. Still, i feel he could move up to 2division easy. Perhaps join Alas.

    USL-2 would be less travel as all the teams are located on the east coast. Less wear and tear on the body. Very important for an older player. I assume Cerritos will have some coaching duties as well. Very few, if any, usl-2 players are full time. Most play indoor and/or have extra jobs to make ends meet.

    Lol sad huh?

    Yeah i think that's why they signed Cerritos. I mean Cerritos was outstanding in the MLS, so i think he will most likely play a Captain/Ass. Coach roll.

    You play for UMD right? Didn't you also get a look from the Guatemalan U20's? Or are you the guy who played for Marshall? For some reason I recall a Guatemalan poster playing d-1 college ball here in the states and getting a look from the Chapines U20's.

    Sad? No way. Those guys are getting a chance to chase a dream and making a little cash on the side. I'd quit my job in a heart beat (and I have a pretty good salary) to play for the peanuts the USL-2 guys make. England is the really the only country I can think of where players in the 3rd and 4th tier are full time pros. In most countries the 3rd division is semi-pro. I suspect the being a "pro" player would give you excellent credentials to secure a good paying coaching gig. I think a lot of the USL guys like a good living that way. Even some MLS guys. I remember Mike Amman refusing a trade from NY to DC because he'd make less money by playing in DC than doing his coaching gig without playing in MLS.

    Guys, time for some avid speculating. As mentioned before, Juve spotters, amongst others, have been eying Leon (particularly during the Genoa-Inter and Genoa-Juve matches--luckily two games in which Rambo had "best Genoa player" performances).

    At first, I said, "ahh, well you know spotters are everywhere in these games and well, you never know who teams will eventually buy." Nonetheless, I think that what may give this rumor some added credibility is that Juve is precisely looking to shop in the winter market--moreover, they seem to want someone with Leon's characteristics.

    My take: the Rambo to Juve rumor, has gained credibility in my book given the fact that well, Rambo is one of the few players that my be had in this winter transfer market that fits Juve's shopping list.

    Mere speculation with some perceived insight by me. Time will tell. Cross your fingers ;)

    Latest news from La-H rumor mill is that Maynor Figueroa (CB, Olimpia, La-H) flew today to England for a trial at Wigan Athletic. Steve Bruce, ex-Birmingham coach whom first approved Wilson Palacios's move to Birmingham City, has asked for the Honduran defenderfor a short trial.

    It's about time, I say. Figueroa's athleticism could allow him to play anywhere in the world. Hopefully he'll work on becoming a better footballer, and especially he's gotta either work on the accuracy of that powerful shot of his--or just stop shooting the ball and focus on defense. ;)

    I think he has very good qualities, in fact I think his playing style will fit into England better than Wilson's . Anyway, good luck to him.
