Just before the weekend games kick off a pair of players have new clubs. LA, DC, Colorado and New York were all active late Friday night. DC has sent Argentina defender Facundo Erpen to the Rocky Mountains for veteran defender Greg Vanney. While the Galaxy have sent Santino Quaranta to New York in-exchange for some…[continue reading]

I have to be rather brief about these previews this weekend. So again, I apologize for that. Houston Dynamo at FC Dallas: I think both teams are playing rather well right now. Dallas is fairly back to full strength as they return home to face their in-state rivals from Houston. The Dynamo have been red…[continue reading]

The wonderful Buzz over at 3rddegree.net spoke today with during his practice observations that FC Dallas will probably be looking to make another move or two during this transfer window. Even with the recent loan from their sister club in Brazil to land young striker Ricardinho, the Hoops will probably make one or two more…[continue reading]

Decent game tonight when Colorado travels to DC on ESPN2. I can’t honestly say I am excited about this game or will I even be able to watch it (brother’s wedding this weekend, so I may miss a lot of action actually). But I will still provide some previews this week and this weekend starting…[continue reading]

Last night’s second round US Open Cup action has helped MLS clubs learn who they will be playing in the coming weeks. Most of the USL-1 clubs won their games with only two USL-2 clubs going through to the next round. July 10th matches: New England Revolution (MLS) at Rochester Rhinos (USL-1) PAETEC Park; Rochester,…[continue reading]

Oh a week makes all the difference doesn’t it? It sure did for the MLS last week I thought. The rankings here at the Hooligan are a little different than what they have been in recent weeks. Ranking (last week’s) – Team (points) 1. (4) New England Revolution (22 pts.) – Sure they beat a…[continue reading]

A few updates to bring you up to speed with encase you’ve been into something else. A few trades and updates in the league, followed by a very serious talk about locker rooms and reporters. Feel free to comment on any of this… ————————————————————————————————————————- As expected, the LA Galaxy have traded midfielder Santino Quaranta to…[continue reading]

Just when we think Mo Johnston is done dealing he does at it again. The hot rumor of the afternoon is that Johnston dealt defender (and somewhat recently acquired) Kevin Goldthwaite to New York for defender Todd Dunivant and possible a draft pick. Very interesting move as the details are still a little vague right…[continue reading]

I guess from time to time it is good to look at the coaches in the MLS and somewhat rate how each of them are doing. I will mainly just stick to the hot seats here today as most coaches are doing enough or more than enough to save their butts from being sacked like…[continue reading]

Some don’t know if it is the horrible trades, the wacky schedule, the outspoken GM, or the under productive roster of the Galaxy that is to blame for their failures ten games into their season. The last couple days my inbox has filled up with Galaxy supporters (and haters) discussing why they think their team…[continue reading]
