Maybe he realizes "Champions League" is kind of an arbitrary goal. It's not his fault the Spurs didn't get there. Not his fault that he scored 20 goals on a team that would have made CL from a lower level league but didn't in the EPL.
The point being I think the whole Champion's League thing is and should be more about the level at which you are playing than it is about reaching and possibly losing out in the early round of a tournament. Outside of a couple of teams from each big league, high-level EPL is as high a level as one can play at, and Dempsey proved he could more than hold his own there.


Hmm, good train of thought, I could see this being a legit reason. He went to Europe, made a top 5 club and showed he belongs, never having to wonder "what if". :cough: donovan.

Well when Clint was talking about the Champions League he must have been talking about the one in CONCACAF
