His expression reeks of anxiety. He's realizing that he has to work with Soldado.

Levy made him sign the contract in blood. (Tim Sherwood's blood)

Lampard and [allegedly] David Villa to NYC FC.

MLS really is the place where footballers go to die.

Sounds way more challenging than going to Middle East or China!

Fat Frank, maybe. But David Villa had a great season at Atletico. I'd take him on Spurs in a heartbeat. I dont know how many years he has left, but he could easily play for most top sides right now.

Ricky Lambert dives into the 'pool. How's that going to work with Suarez/Sterling/Lambert?

Not saying it's bad, just that it's the case. I suppose it can't hurt since it'll only raise the profile of the league, but it still remains that most of the people that come in are over 30 and definitely past their best. Nando should be just about ready for when the Miami team joins the league.

I'd take Villa in a heartbeat too, and that's the point, he'd rather go to MLS, get a paycheck and be a big fish in a small pond than stick around and stay competitive. Obviously that's his choice and more power to him, but it's just a bummer coming off such a great season.

C'ést la vie.

Lambert, I have no idea, the youth oriented philosophy I guess includes 32yo men coming off of 2 decent seasons. That being said, if he takes playing time from Asspass then yes, bring him in. I'm wondering if Borini is coming back also, which would be nice since he had a decent season at Sunderland, which is a miracle in itself lately.
