I am at a loss for words. This could very well be the end for Wayne Rooney at United, especially if the rumors of PSG offering an absurd amount of money for him is true.
youre the tabloids
Key word there is COULD. That's a big difference from "good as gone".

I love the FA Cup :D

Wigan rolled into the FA Cup final an 8-to-1 underdog, with a starting XI that cost $30 million--which is one tenth of the cost of what city put out there, and less than city paid for Gareth Barry alone--and they won 1-0 with a goal in stoppage time. One of the biggest upsets in FA Cup final history.

Best part was, city was so outplayed that Aguero began diving left and right trying to get anything he could to help the team.

is Germany playing their first team? Cause thats really impressive. I see Klose and Podalski are playing so I'll assume yes. Big win for US if they hold on.

i kinda assumed that but I see Klose/Podalski playing. Now I'll admit that soccer and the changing of internationals is confusing to me so they could be old lol. I heard Germany is expected to be the dominant european country going forward.

i finally got a good pirate copy of FM 13, look forward to taking Bulgaria to the World Cup.

they are in such good form right now. They haven't lost to a non-top tier team since early 2012 vs switzerland.

looking over their team, outside of mertesacker and podolski, this is a B team for Germany. Klose is over the hill. Also Germany doesn't have any WC Qualifiers in June while the US is getting ready for 3 huge ones. Still. 4 goals against Germany B is still better than against Jamaica, Panama and Guatemala, who the US is playing in June.

Great to see Jozy break his drought and even got an assist. Always great to see Wynalda's bitch ass passed by Dempsey, and on an amazing goal at that!

B team or not, great win. The AOs went nuts at the whistle. Was a well deserved win.... That said, defense has to continue to shore up. Evans was terrific at RB today.
