    There is so much tv money that some of these teams are just buying players. Liverpool just signed Atletico right back on loan with chance to buy. They already have 3 right backs who I believe can play at the international level when healthy.

    Spurs have so many midfielder that it is ridiculous. They basically have sent some players on loans to more clubs than they have first team caps for tottenham. IMO, this is why young english player development is lacking.

    Hoping that Twellman is wrong and Di Marzio is right.

    What ever happened to those proposed roster limits in the EPL?

    But if anyone is going to buy Yedlin and loan him back to MLS, it needs to at least be close to completed today. Per MLS rules, any club who buys a player from outside the league or takes a player on loan from outside the league has to request the International Transfer Certificate (ITC) by today.

    The transfer window for most of the world isn't for four more weeks, but to register players from outside the league in MLS, the request has to be in today. That means Yedlin's returning to the Sounders on loan has to be sorted, or just about, by today. If not, he will either stay with the Sounders until the end of the season at least, or if he's sold later this month, he's gone for good.

    Meh, i've never been too worried about MLS rules. I just hope it's not the Spuds.

    As a seasoned Spurs watcher, Kyle Walker was one of Spurs' best players last season... Is he overrated? Maybe, but he's a good right back.

    I don't understand this move at all. It would be a bad move for Yedlin, because Walker is only 3 years older than him and I see very little chance of Yedlin supplanting England's starting RB anytime soon. Hell even Kyle Naughton is probably a better RB than Yedlin right now.

    Ditto, but there's a pretty good recent track record for Twellman's MLS rumors. He has at least one very good source.

    Supposedly there are 25 man limits. So I am expecting loans and a bunch of players pushed back onto reserve/youth squads.

    Look at Liverpool's squad right now.

    So, Shea and Johnson out of the many, many Americans who have played in England? I hate England as much as anybody, but this is a pretty weak argument

    Michael Bradley at Villa, DaMarcus Beasley at City, do your own damn research.

    *Maurice Edu, Benny Feilhaber, Oguchi Onyewu.

    It's getting to the point where if Taylor Twellman told me I was actually adopted I'd have to seriously consider it.

    Here's the point bud. It's not just Americans. Plenty of skilled players, World Cup calibre players, have come to premier league, done poorly and ridden the bench, and then promptly gone on to win titles and cups in higher quality leagues like Spain, Germany, and Italy. That you brush aside the fact that Michael Bradley, arguably the most technical US player yet, could barely crack a not-that-great Aston Villa side and then went on to start for a pretty good AS Roma side as not being enough proof that the Premier League has flaws...well, you've clearly already made up your mind, haven't you?

    If we use that logic then no american under the age of 25 should go to Italy based on the success of American youth in Italy.

    That's one example. My point is that happens in all leagues. Michael Parkhurst rotted on the bench for a pedestrian Augsburg team. Ricardo Clark barely played for Frankfurt. Should Americans not go to Germany?

    Vietnam really seemed to resurrect Lee Nguyen's career, and Cambodia appeared to rejuvenate Donovan...maybe those people in Southeast Asia know what they're doing? ;)

    What's strange is that of all the EPL teams, Tottenham seems like the wrong fit. Think of all the fast young defenders and wingers they already have--besides Walker, there's Naughton, Danny Rose, Aaron Lennon, Andros Townshend etc. A speedy young defender is the one thing they don't need.

    As opposed to...on accident? Of course he's being fed the information on purpose, from a source, who wants him to know and to spread it to the world.

    It surely benefits all parties involved in one way or another, I don't think that's a real rumor, that's just common sense.

    They're at 25, plus 8 homegrowns under 21.

    The problem is that these 25 players can be combined starting rosters of Germany and Argentina from the last WC final. In fact, the top teams probably have a better roster than Argentina, if you go by all 11 spots.

    Who that "Twellman" person really is.

    I just heard rumors that twellmann is just a puppet for MLS/USSF. I hear reportig news of MLS/USSSF can get very 'high school' and a lot of drama behind the scenes...

    Because Roma's owner really wants another anerican at Roma and will look a fool if he goes to spurs after the proclamations he made a week ago.
