GAM's stepovers are the worst


GAM's guide to running past people:

1. Do stepovers, always
2. Push the ball 10 yards past a defender and sprint after it.
3. Falsely believe that any separation is due to his stepovers.
4. Get pushed wide and end up at the corner flag.

are you implying that when he's back in form, he makes that?

Damn, Omar G just got robbed of a goal I think

The Galaxy took the whole "play like Barcelona" thing too literally. Trying to fight the ref now.







It was a terrible missed call.

I'm implying that the time between his banner year at Fulham up to last June's sting of WCQ's, Dempsey was a top 40 player in the world.

He has fallen off big time since and who knows if he will ever reach that level again.

ETA: Omar got robbed

Should be next year if they aren't stupid

Also it seems like it would be accepted by just about everyone here since we are used to it in other sports.

If the FA, the oldest soccer organization in the world, can do it I don't see why anyone else couldn't

Tottenham wasn't a good fit for him at all.. Now in the MLS for Seattle he will feature for them, and be in a much better spot to succeed. I think he will return to top form again.

He will almost certainly get out of the funk he's in now, but I don't think he will ever reach the level he was at when with Fulham because he won't be playing anywhere near close the competition that he did with the EPL in the MLS.

I know Liverpool was in the running for Dempsey, how do you guys think he would've done there?

Kinda what I thought. To get a good shot at a big club he needed to leave Fulham at a younger age.
