Falling Apart?

Fulham Football Club, America's favorite MLS side in Barclay's English Premier League are in desperate times. They currently hold the second to last place in the EPL, a league in which the bottom three teams will be relegated to the Championship, which is Major League Baseball's equivolent to Triple A. With so many great American soccer players, we here at the SacUnitedSoccerBlog find it to be quite a problem. This poses many problems to our National Team's development. We don't want Clint Dempsey, and Eddie Johnson for example playing week in and out against lower level teams all the way over in England. If the reason for joining the Premiership is tested and proven quality, then it's completely counterproductive. In other words sports fans, this sucks balls!

Here are the stats: 6 Americans; Carlos Bocanegra, Brian McBride, Clint Dempsey, Kasey Keller, Eddie Johnson, and someone named Brede Paulsen Hangeland. Current Status, 19th Place. Points: 19. Just 3 wins in 28 games! That leaves just ten games to gain ground and get out of the toilet. We wish the Cottagers luck!

On the brightside, many Americans are succeeding in the Premiership, such as American goalkeeper Tim Howard of Everton, who aren't in danger of relegation, in fact, currently in 4th place, they are in line for a shot at Champions League next year! Go Timmy!

If Fulham are relegated, we say bring Clint, EJ, and Carlos back to MLS for the EarthQuakes! Cheers homies... SacUnitedSoccerBlog@yahoo.com
