Wow. That is a snub on Elis. I would expect him to make the bench. Then I look at the attacking players on that ASG roster and I ask myself -- who would I take off that list for Elis? I think Nani.
Nano has been great for the Lions. I'm ok with him over Elis. Give the kid a little more rest. One less game to worry about
I'd put that down to even more disinterest by the Houston fan base. Isn't part of the selection process based on fan votes? Used to be that folks would log in every day to pump up the vote.
for the 1,000,000th time: Hondurans stars don't sell tickets. it's ok to rep me, it ain't racist, its a market truth.
Dammit, and I was all ready to pull the trigger on launching a new Houston USL team led by Carlos Costly with a jersey sponsorship from Taqueria Arandas
I was watching a match the other day and some attacker made a move to shake his defender near the goal line and I automatically thought "Who was the Dynamo player that did that so much you could set your watch to it???" I took me awhile but I remembered it was Carlos Costly. Good times.
I'll say this... it's a popularity contest. People who actually deserve to be on the roster won't, because like Rey said.... a Honduran who plays for a team with the lowest salary in the league won't sell tickets. Even though is better than some of the options. Nani deserves to be on the roster.... dude has been lighting it up for Orlando. What does bother me is Wondo and Rimando will get run outs as a thank you, but Beasley won't.... ******** off! He has paved more roads for MLS and US players moving to Europe than both of them ever thought of.
He had that move where we would back in and pivot like an NBA power forward. Man, seems like a lifetime ago
If the EPL had an All Star team, they wouldn’t have Aston Villa, and Norwich players voted into the roster.
