    FAO- American papers dont bother with bullshit stories so this is the truth.

    Hmmm, possibly a shout for the future. Seems quite injury prone though

    America seems to produce a lot of good 'keepers. I wonder if it's because they have more hand-orientated ball sports? I wouldn't imagine many kids over there go straight into "soccer". A different set-up compared to Europe, where the big slow guy, who can't play as centre-half, gets stuck in nets and develops from there!

    Actually more americans play youth football(soccer) than any other country in the world.

    Just most kids stop by the time they hit 13 or 14

    We never signed Dalby because we couldn't get a work permit.

    Maybe a good one for the future.... still a bit concerned with buying a guy who is 17 and who has already binned his f^cking shoulder twice though - keepers always end up b^ggering their shoulders at some point, but at that age it's a big concern.

    Having said that, he'll probably cost about 150k, so could be a worthwhile investment.

    Nice (for once) to hear a transfer rumour that has an element of substance to it! Cheers Mithrandir.

    He would be free. He is not on any club.

    He practices at DC United. But they dont pay prospects because the MLS doesnt have money to pay prospects

    And you know this how? Because It was written in an article he has had a shoulder injury a couple of times?
