Great stuff. There's an Arsenal fan at work who's about the most smug guy going about his club. Or at least he was. He's been irate for a while about Arsenal playing the ball about nicely and doing nothing with it, and dropping points as a result. This weekend will have set him up nicely for the season ahead.
i cant even begin to describe how funny i think this result is..... NY wins a tourney with what 5 shots on goal total and 30% possession?
Dear announcer guy, there are ways to express your opinions honestly without leaving the door open to looking like an ass clown.
The color commentator just called NYRB a "Pub Team".... that would be below "Blue Prem".... this is too precious.
If anyone can summarize what is going on with the ESPN UK broadcast I'd love to read about it, reps! Thanks.
No crap about Arsenal being in preseason, they start their season in a little over a week! They should be near to season form and if they aren't, then they'll be in for a long season this year...
They're just going on about how they're supposed to win their own tournament. Now everything is Henry and he's making a victory lap.
A pub team would be way below that level - about 20 divisions below. I take back what I said earlier. Anyone making that sort of comment just shows he has a preconceived bias.
Hopefully this is just the start of things to come for MLS teams in international competition. I don't really care much for NY but shutting up that damn Scottish color guy was awesome. Apparently NY "couldn't play in the premier league" - really, so they are worse than Norwich, Swansea, and Queens Palace or Wigan...
The regular commentator is checking the color guy's "frankness"... sort of saying "hey, it was a friendly after all... "
Henry jogged over to the commentators, shook their hands and is now interviewing. "my legs aren't quite the same." "I want to win MLS Cup." They love Henry.
