US looked damn good last night vs Guatemala for a "Second side" against a team desperate for a win.

Some great fast paced pinging combos through the back line of Guatemala. Had the feeling they should have scored a lot more but they looked really sharp. Does Sacha Kljestan ever do anything wrong in the USMNT jersey?

the move that JOZY made before that cross was fantastic. Sure, he missed 2 wide open nets, but he's the most exciting player to ever put on a US jersey.

That big guy number 9? um he wasn't too bad. I thought the US played OK. Sacha.. yep. He's good. Freddy Adu, he did ok had some good runs, his 50 yard run/ shot was really nice. free kick goal, was a goal, but not the nicest, Sacha K had a big hand in that as the keeper bit on his "run over the ball"

Arsenal... are done.

Donovan's loan to Bayren Munich is through: http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/st...europe&cc=5901

this quote sums it all up:

And Bayern manager Uli Hoeness has been impressed with what he has seen so far. "What he has shown so far is okay, he can certainly kick," said Hoeness.

I was chatting with a German friend at length this morning about this. I think we wrote a better article between us. He certainly can kick? Like he's a mule

As a German side note I'm proud to report some outstanding behavior of some Bremen fans in dealing with some neo-Nazis at the Bremen/Bochum match last week. The Nazis unfurled a banner with their politiks on it and the crown turned on em with Nazis Raus! and got the cops to haul them off. They taunted them all the way off with the auf Wiedersehen, awesome
