***Official Premiership, FA Cup, Carling Cup, Champions League etc. Thread***
 
For all those of you who follow football over here and want to discuss goings on with your team and debate the upcoming season. Feel free to talk about anything football related on this side of the pond.

I'll start by saying that Tevez has rejected a move to Inter Milan because he refused to meet their deadline to sign a deal, so a potential move to Arsenal may be back on the cards :multi

Darren Bent just signed with Tottenham, that should be an interesting move because they will now have 4 legit strikers. I easily could seen them top 4 in EPL. We'll see.

I'm not so sure, being an Arsenal fan I'm ridiculously biased when it comes to all things Tottenham but I honestly think that Bent is overrated and overpriced. Although I will admit I'm slightly more apprehensive about Spurs competing with us this season than usual.

Haha yeah my Fifa 07 Help thread was turning into this so I like the thread...and I Love Manchester United...got it done this year in the EPL but not in anything else...they will still be stacked going into the 2007-2008 season. With Arsenal losing Henry they should take both of those games in payback for this past season. Also, I am already planning a trip to go see the best team in the world (Man United) sometime in march of 08!! I can't wait, I have never been to England!

I'm really looking forward to watching Berbatov and Keane tear it up this season. I became a huge fan of them towards the end of the year.

Here's to the LDV Vans Trophy! :thumbsup

Seriously though I'm hopeful that Spurs can continue their revival. Bent's a good acquisition for them.

Seems theres a lot of Spurs fans out there unfortunately. And to all you Arsenal doubters, just you wait and see, we will manage fine without Henry, I mean we managed last season for the most part without him, and even then he wasn't anywhere near top form at any point. As soon as we sign a suitable replacement a Champions League place will be ours no problem.

I'm not a Spurs fan by any means - just been interested in their improvement last season, that's all and hope that it's not just a one year thing. :) I don't really follow any team with a passion, just keen on the game itself.

Momo just signed on for another 4 year, and we're on the brink of signing Torres for just under 27m pound. Expect big things from the Reds this year.

Also: Carlos Tevez rejected Inter's bid for him, claiming he wants to stay in the EPL. Arsenal? LFC? Should be interesting to see where he goes after the end of Copa America.

Half of our first team isn't even playing, we're not even in the CONMEBOL and are invitees along with Mexico for the tournament.

Donovan, Twellman, among the U.S.'s other best players aren't competing so it isn't expected that we do well.

Winning the Gold Cup was a huge accomplishment for us being that it is our confederation's cup, not another continent's.

I wish we had something like Premiership over here in the US.

The MLS is a joke. :(

Even better stuff. Yeah we play arguably the best football in the league just the lack of results from the intricate passing and flying counter attacks thats the pain.

I thank god for fox soccer channel regularly, but man do i miss the time when i was studying abroad, it was so nice, and easy, to watch games. and i was there for half the world cup in 2002. that was fantastic. They definitely show most of the arsenal, man u and chelsea games. My friend and I have found a great bar in NYC to watch games at now, so I'm looking forward to that for next year.

I remember watching two premier league games one sat to be followed by the MLS opening games. Totally painful and depressing.
