Gooch Gone

Wow. Here's a blistering critique from YanksAbroad.com of everyone involved in the Oguchi Onyewu move to Newcastle which, as Chris predicted, was a failure for Gooch.

Meanwhile Jay Demerit was relegated with Watford. Bobby Convey missed the last portion of the year at Reading due to injury.

The three Americans at Fulham are still sraping to avoid relegation (I think they will). Incredibly, the defender Carlos Bocanegra is their second leading scorer after Brian McBride. Clint Dempsey is getting a run every once in a while. Everyone says he needed to get fit for the English schedule, which is reverse to the American season. Hopefully next year he'll play a bit more. He's only 24. He could really help them out if he gets rolling.

I have started listening to Soccernet's podcast, which is created and produced in England, and dominated by English commentators. Their dismissal of all things Clint Dempsey has been quite sad. They also ridiculed the now-fired Fulham coach for his American obsession. Although they think McBride is quality, the commentators clearly believe he is the exception to the American rule. They much prefer Australia's A-League to the MLS. Sometimes, they are so dismissive of American soccer that I feel a little embarrased listening.
