Ten mil for Deuce or more?


He's 29 and has a year left on his contract so I'd expect fulham to let him go for 10-12. I actually think he'd be a great signing for arsenal as they can use the depth on the wing as well as cover at striker.

Keep in mind that arshavin and benayoun will probably not be back next season. Ox, gervinho, and Dempsey rotating for the 2 wing positions could be very effective.

Out of the ones listed. It would be my second choice. Would rather him go to Arsenal, though.


I'd say Arsenal>malaga>Chelsea>PSG

I would never argue that Liverpool is really a step up from Fulham. They finished about equal in the table, and he would lose far more by leaving Fulham than he would gain by joining Liverpool.

Say what you want about our current state, but LFC will always be a step up from Fulham... At least in mine and most people's opinion...

I'd take him, because he'd add a much needed scoring threat, but I don't think he's the direction we need to go in... AND we dont have unlimited funds...

that said if he wants CL football next year, he obviously wont be coming to LFC...

I'd love for Deuce to come to Chelsea but I just don't see him coming with Hulk and Hazard signed. Might could take Torres spot though...Jk...but seriously.

I think Arsenal would be a great spot for him and one of my only other friends who watches soccer is a gunner so we pull for each other in most situations. What United's situation? Thy just signed a new midfielder didn't they?

Seriously though, can you explain why you dislike Dempsey? I consider him probably my favorite USA player of all time. He's not the most talented guy in the world but he has gone to the toughest league in the world and improved every season. When he went to the EPL he could barely earn playing time at a club that stayed up on the last day of the season against a weakened Liverpool team. 5 years later he's generally been regarded as worthy of being in the team of the season.

Obviously the whole rap thing was a bit of a joke. I remember his first full season at Fulham he was on premier league world and the presenter talked him into doing some freestyle. It was awful
