The merits of a Le Toux move, how it shows changing perceptions of MLS in Europe, the prospects of a Michael Farfan move to Europe, and the reason behind Wednesday’s flurry of personnel news for the Union. (Hint: It wasn’t a coincidence it all happened in one day.)
Eddie Johnson and Freddy Adu at Aris Thessaloniki Eddie Johnson was able to score off a well weighted Freddy Adu long pass after both had come as substitutes late in the game for Aris Thessaloniki in Greece. This bodes well for both players. In addition the team was not able […]
