Best part of the game?

Fans spend the whole game booing Dempsey, cheering Henry, cheering wildly every time Green and Yedlin touch the ball.

Donovan comes in, clowns a couple motherfrickers on the wing, scores the game winning goal and leaves.

Isn't Porter thought to have USMNT aspirations too?

Not sure about either he or Pep after that game. Porter should have dealt with it in game. Instead he sat there looking mega weak. I'm glad I turned it off before witnessing him following Pep around. He's going to regret that for the rest of his life.

Oh and that #10 had a pretty good goal.

And frick Pep acting like a baby back bitch after the game.

He thought he could waltz in with his scrubs and win, and that didn't happen. He brought in his stars late to try to save some face and that didn't happen either.

The MLS All-Stars wanted to win, and they did.

As a Bayern fan what Pep did was an utter disgrace and I lost a shite ton of respect for him. Hats off to the players though for shaking hands after the game.

Don't think the loss really bothered him, he was just expecting an exhibition atmosphere and that's not what he got. He should have done his research. They were contractually obligated to play their stars when he didn't really want to, then Will Johnson was late on Schweiny it set him over the edge.

I would have been pissed after the Alonso challenge then the Johnson one but he probably overestimated how much influence Caleb Porter really had over the All Star squad. It's not like he pulled a Tony Pulis.

That being said, Schweiny basically got dead legged on the back of his left leg, with johnson's right foot barely touching his right foot. Schweiny(a great great great soccer player, but the ultimate flopper) grabs his right shin(never got touched) and then starts rolling around holding his face.

Then he just goes straight to the locker room. He acted like a little baby.

He's had lingering ankle issues for a while, not going to stay in the game after that challenge.

Why would they boo Dempsey and cheer Yedlin if they both play for the Sounders?

Henry and Donovan were the best part of the game. It seemed like Michael Bradley set an all star game record of distance traveled (per minute). Dude was all over and looked so confident with almost every ball he played.

This is who Schweinsteiger is. Play acts, flops, and cries constantly.

This I did not know....makes sense that he even put them in now. Still I'm not certain I wouldn't have started with my front line for about 5-10 min and then brought in Shaq, Lewandowski, and the other guys that had more training under their belt.

He didn't mention anything about making perfect runs, tracking back on defense, and scoring big goals all the while being charming and charismatic.
