If you get a chance, check out the documentary on Jay Demerit called Rise and Shine. Talks about his high school, college, semi pro and his leap of faith going to England without a team and eventually catching on with Watford. Scored as huge goal vs Leeds in the playoff game to send Watford to the Premier league. Very good story.

Amazes me that Bradley Wright Phillips never had much success in England. He has been killing it in MLS this season. Averaging nearly a goal a game. I get it the EPL is better than MLS, but I definitely think he has mid-EPL level talent.

Speculation that Borini is headed to Sunderland which would prompt Altidore to Everton. To be honest, I do not know why they would want Altidore after his last season. But that's the current rumor.

got an article? I am not a huge Jozy fan but i think with quality that the Toffees have, e'll get the service needed to be as effective he is with the USMNT..

We need Yanks abroad to finally make a serious, lasting mark (apart from GKs). Deandre needs to jump now..huge learning curve and will need time to adjust...

Oh, when then Yanks...

Read the Jozy rumors on an Everton board that was linked on another site, I don't put much credence to them although they are very intriguing. I'll try to dig up a link.

Yedlin to Roma is a done deal. Regardless of what his agent says, it is all but official and the news should be released in the next week or so.

It has already leaked in some Italian circles. DiMarzio is a very credible source, and he tweeted this:

I don't very much doubt that.. but as a Spurs fan, I am always skeptical.... IE Willian to Totten..errr...Chelsea

Southampton is gonna be able to do some serious spending

Seriously, they've sold everybody. Most of them to Liverpool.


In other news, Zelalem can hoop! He called backboard, I heard him!

I bought that channel for a week to watch something (can't remember what) and couldn't give it up. They have SO MUCH soccer you can't really see elsewhere, and Ray Hudson is worth the price of admission.

Ray Hudson..either love him, or hate him.

I side with the latter.

Yedlin is looking awful for Seattle tonight. The whole Sounders backline really. Zardes is a damn good player too. He might have an MNT future.

I still think Yedlin's brightest future is at right wing. Gareth Bale was a left back until he got to Tottenham, and then he was moved to left wing because of his quickness.

Lukaku is official to Everton!

I this could be the year the Toffees break into the top 4 and qualify for the CL. Ross Barkley and Lukaku are not just some of the best young talents in the EPL, but in Europe.

Man U v Inter last night was a somewhat lackluster game. Disappointed. Did not help spending 4 hours in the car to travel the roughly 50 miles.

I agree. Was watching it at the bar and was nearly put to sleep.

Awesome! There will be some really good football in Merseyside next year. Not that that was ever in doubt.

My buddy, a big Liverpool fan, wants to go across the pond for a 4-day trip. Liverpool EPL game, then a Champs League game, then back to the States. I was hoping we could find a weekend like this for a Merseyside football binge, but Everton and Liverpool don't play at home in the same week at any point this season. Kind of a bummer. I knew the same day was probably too much to ask for, but I was hoping for a Saturday/Sunday or something.
