Thread: Hey Lyle....

What do you know about Michael Bradley ? The football player who's coming to Everton, I've never seen him, is he good ? Moyes best not be buying shit.

clubcall - Latest football news, transfers, reports

Well I know all you Brits love Brian McBride....well Michael Bradley is only 20 years old and broke McBride's scoring record for an American playing their first season in Europe with SC Heerenveen ...he scored 19 goals and he's a midfielder...that's pretty damn good considering he didn't score but 1 goal in 30 games in the MLS.

Bradley is young, he's smart, he plays smart, he passes well, he defends well, he's been around the game on a top level his whole life....he's going to be the Steven Gerrard of the US National team for a long time.....he's a gamer, he might struggle a bit his first season but he's got BIG upside

And they say American's don't understand sarcasm




Jk Lyle.

...truthfully he's the only American player (not a goal keeper) anyone from England recognizes as a good player.


I still can't believe everyone has basically written Freddy Adu off already....he's got great talent.

Us Brits love brian Mcbride Lyle , with that i presume you mean 22,000 brits who like Fulham football club.

...no I mean every single last one of you


I'll ask anyone "Who's the best American player ever to have played in your opinion?"

and they always say "McBride"


.....it doesn't say much for American players or English people's understanding of American soccer players, but then again Donovan and Beasley have helped aid the British view of American players not doing so well.

Id say Alexi Lalas although he didnt play in the prem .

By th e way Lyle what whisky do you drink ?

Lalas was good....he played a little while in Serie A...but it's easier to play defense than score goals IMO



Maker's Mark....it's the best! I don't drink anything else if I have the option of Maker's on the rocks


Cobi Jones, Reyna, and Wynalda were decent players but more for the US National team than any club team

Hey Lyle Makers Mark is my favorite BURBON , and if im not mistaken is the smallest producer in the usa.( THE WAX IS PUT ON THE BOTTLE BY HAND I BELIEVE )
Im also a big fan of malt and blended Scotch whisky.
GREAT MINDS AND ALL

Bourbon is just a whiskey produced in Bourbon County Kentucky...so yeah I guess it's my favorite Bourbon too
