Finally seems that at least some arrogant and parochial Englishmen are awakening to the fact that the USA is actually embracing football (or SOCCER as it is known in many parts of the world outside jolly olde England) and addressing their fear that the yanks will someday be a real force in the game.
I said a long time ago, I can see the US getting to a World Cup Final (and possibly winning it) before ever England do again. Nothing that has happened since convinces me to change that opinion.
The problem with British players is that there simply is no hunger in their make up any more. They have 'got it made' so to speak. The best players are at the best clubs, getting paid in the millions and put on a pedestal by adoring fans and the darling media. Compare that to players from South America, Africa and, yes, even the USA, all with something to prove, all with a desire to better themselves and their families and fight their way out of the ghettos and favelas. In the case of the Americans, the motivation they get from those idiotic football snobs that look down their noses at them and their sports, drives them on to a level that English players left behind decades ago.

WTF?.it's called football...it was called football before any American sports were thought of. It's the oldest domestic sport in the world. It's fücking FOOTBALL, usr use your feet...self explanatory really. Unlike that American Rugby game, or the male rounders or the male netball sport the tanks play....

"...he did not come from Russia, he is Ozil...."
.....for God's sake sunshine grow up! What's in a name as long as you know what is meant? You obviously know that the word 'soccer'...(OMG, I can just see you now, rolling on the ground having convulsions!)...means football (or fitba' in my native dialect)...so what is the big deal?
If that's all you have to be concerned about in this world we live in, you must be a very self-centred individual.
As I say, grow up.
