Comments on: Davis Daily-Notes and news from the world of soccer http://www.glenndavissoccer.com/soccer-news/davis-daily-notes-and-news-from-the-world-of-soccer/ The Soccer Hour with Glenn Davis Thu, 09 Feb 2012 23:51:13 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Martin Burke http://www.glenndavissoccer.com/soccer-news/davis-daily-notes-and-news-from-the-world-of-soccer/comment-page-1/#comment-30686 Martin Burke Fri, 25 Jan 2008 21:36:57 +0000 http://www.glenndavissoccer.com/2008/01/24/davis-daily-notes-and-news-from-the-world-of-soccer/#comment-30686 Glenn, Not in your list of topics, but I must say that I am relieved that the four U-23 players that were in the full MNT camp earlier have now moved over to join the U-23s... namely, Altidore, Edu, Klejstan, and Wynne. Qualifying for the Olympics is CRUCIAL (much more so than the Feb 6 game vs. Mexico) and I would like to see as many top players involved as possible. On that note, do you think there is a chance at least some of the other top U-23 players will be released by their European clubs for qualifying? I think the list includes Adu, Bradley, Feilhaber, Spector, Szetela, and Zizzo. If the US does make it to the Olympics, I assume they would be in the mix then. Thanks, Martin Glenn,

That coming from Hicks/Gillett after trying to do damage control and coming out publicly in his support. Unsettling, undermined a manager and the type of thing that unsettles squads. As for Dominic kinnear, how could he not be? Two titles in a row. Players that perform for him....I would say yes but it is down the road and things can change. This will be Bradley's shot at 2010.

Ok, I understand the controversy in L'pool, but Hicks and Gillette are going to build a new stadium which will up the dollars so the team can compete with the Chelsea/ManU's of the world. That will be a nice commitment, and not terrible. http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=501678&cc=5901 BTW, do you believe Coach Kinnear is on any kind of long term US Soccer coaching radar?
