Interesting. I wonder if this means Fulham will be looking to make a big splash in this transfer window.
Also, this guy has a net worth of 1.65 billion pounds and is only the 179th richest person in the US? I had no idea we had so many billionaires.

I'm glad somebody else feels this way. It seems like so many US fans are convinced Shea has all this ability and just needs more opportunities to show it at the international level. From what I've seen, the only way he is effective is if he just pushes the ball by people out wide and can beat them with speed. He doesn't seem to have the technical ability or soccer brain to participate in a quick, short-passing game or beat defenders who don't let him get turned and push the ball by them. I hope he figures things out, but I'm not optimistic.
pfim wrote:Wynalda gets a bit annoying during broadcasts, but his point about Shea letting the ball bounce on those two cross-field passes was spot on. The guy lacks confidence and when he's off, he's like a black hole.
He's also an interesting case because up until 2-3 years ago, no one really knew what his best position was. He started as a wide player, many thought he would become a central striker, some even thought he'd be a better centerback. I think that's largely still the case, as is noted above, Stoke was looking at him as an outside back.

Midfield struggled, needed a holding player which Holden and Diskerud are not.
Strong at CB and in goal. I really like Johnson. Good chance he gets his shot after Guzan if his career progresses.
Costa Rica had no desire to attack, so in a way it was always going to be a patient wait for the goal. Still, the first half was very blah.
