Plays in midfield and his name is Tommy Miller,
signed him from Huddersfield his name is Tommy Miller,
first touch is average but his second is a killer,
heeeeeey Tommy Miller!

Good work from the Yanks. It'll be largely forgotten within a month or so.

Michael Bradley was a harshly sent off. Altidore is quality shame he does not get in the Villarreal side

To be fair, Villlarreal also have Guiseppe Rossi and Nihat Kahcevi, who aren't half bad themselves; they spent $10m on Altidore though, so I expect he'll get a lot more games next season; his first season was a bit hampered by injury and being slow to settle in Spain.

Basing this on the many games I've seen of him in a U.S. shirt I'd say that currently Altidore isn't good enough for La Liga.

...because he's not good enough (yet)  He's still a teenager. I think he left New York a little bit too eary but he should prove far more valuable to the US of A than Freddy Adu has thus far. |

Benfica. Spent a bit of time at Monaco. He's doing very little and won't be long before he's back in the MLS (probably via Portsmouth or someone like that) I recall Alex Ferguson inviting him to train with Manchester United after years of being linked to them. After said invite he never got linked to them again  |

After said invite he never got linked to them again Rich that was about 2 years ago. He has been on decline ever since. i actually thought he would sign for them |

And this is the well.
Drink full and descend.
