    Does anyone think that Landon could ask to be transferred (cheaply) to Everton? And that LA would grant it bc of all he has done for the side, along with the bonus being that they can bring in Lampard?

    Nope. The amount of money that would be needed for the transfer fee for Lampard will probably be roughly equal to the amount of money the Donovan would bring in at full value. Lampard will ask for far more than the 2 million that Donovan makes and he isn't as marketable as Donovan in the US.

    1. How is this MLS related

    2. What a sh*tty article. How many American midfielders start for top 4 clubs in top 4 leagues? One. And you don't think he should play for the US because of his club disciplinary record....idiot

    Can someone explain to me why there are all these rumors of Lampard joining Galaxy? How can he? Galaxy have already used their 3 DP slots. Obviously Beckham isn't leaving, Keane isn't leaving (they just got him, lol), and trading Donovan for Lampard would be a stupid business move.

    Unless MLS change the rules again. I don't think LA has enough allocation money to cover any of the DPs. I know Grant Wahl stated that MLS gives 100 grand in Allocation for making the knock out stages of the CCL.

    Because the media likes to make things up and pretty much very few people in England know about the DP rule.

    We're talking about MLS here, where the rules and slots are written on ice paper.

    The Galaxy recently just said in an article that they want to be the biggest brand in the world . . . leaking bullshit to the press about players they're "talking to" gives them TONS of free publicity to help them achieve that goal.

    He can't, but it never hurts to start negotiations a couple years early...

    Or Keane decides he wants to join Villa, LA might let him go if they can pick up Lampard... although this also sounds rdqluss.
