Anyone else see the rumors of Arsenal buying Jamie Vardy from LC?

 

Also, rumors are that Tottenham want to sign 19 year old striker Breel Embolo

 

Rumors are rumors during the silly season, but the Vardy to Arsenal seems very likely to happen unfortunately.

 

As for Spurs, they're also considered "favorites" for Batshuyi, Slimani and Wanyama too. They're obviously not signing them all.

I really don't want to see Vardy leave, especially after the season LC just had. If they sign Embolo, he'd be a great replacement with a much higher ceiling.

So they can still beat CONCACAF teams on US soil. Ho hum.

 

Just need a draw against Paraguay and hope Colombia wins out.

Decent game overall...better teams would have punished us early on though. Zardes is really brutal at the international level. He seems like a really good kid but I just don't know if he's cut out for the USMNT. At least as a starter.

 

Zardes always has awful first touches. It might be time to give Nagbe or Pulisic a try at starting at forward.

USA win group A after Costa Rica upsets Colombia. Hopefully we avoid playing Brazil.

 

 

It would take Haiti not losing to Ecuador and Peru winning to play Brazil. Very unlikely.

Oh wow. Can't believe Brazil didn't make it through...

 

Turns out Colombia losing actually worked out for them. They avoid Argentina in the semis and get a easier team in Peru than Ecuador.

 

Yup. I'd rather have Peru and Mexico/Chile than Ecuador and Argentina. Ah well.

 

The Chicago semifinal will probably be Mexico-Colombia. Look forward to that.
