David Beckham is going through a slow process in his process of creating an MLS team that can compete in the football league of United States. The main obstacle that Beckham is facing is where to build a stadium as he has had numerous locations proposals rejected but nonetheless, the Englishman is confident that it’s only a matter of time until he can strike a deal and start building his stadium. Even though there still isn’t an exact location or official site for the stadium to start being built, Beckham has already begun his search of signing players and Barcelona’s Gerard Pique is one of the first players that the…

LA Galaxy slipped to yet another low during the weekend
LA Galaxy slipped to yet another low during the weekend after suffering a 5-2 thrashing at the hands of Portland Timbers. The team has managed only one win since the 5-1 thrashing of New York City back in August. It has raised concerns about manager Bruce Arena, who may be on the verge of leaving the club if poor results persist.

He has been virtually unshakeable in the defence and it has contributed to the team making a challenge for the final series. As the team plans for the upcoming friendly match against West Brom and other English clubs, Hines claims that the numerous injury problems suffered by his squad will not change their will to win. Orlando are expected to have an advantage over West Brom, whose players have just returned from summer holidays. On the other hand, Orlando City are in the middle of their…

Three statement signings the Fire should consider
The number of world-renowned soccer players moving to the MLS over the past 12 months seems to have reached an all-time high. Yet somehow the arrival of all this talent has passed Chicago Fire by. The MLS is now able to boast the likes of Kaka, Andrea Pirlo, Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard, Didier Drogba and David Villa in its ranks, but there is a feeling the Fire remain on the outside looking in when it comes to all this talent.
