Totally know what you mean about suffering as a red bull fan. I just don't understand with the talent they have why they don't do better. Henry kinda pisses me off. He doesn't give it his all when he plays for red bulls but then goes to arsenal and does.

Marquez is just a waste. I hope they put him as a defensive mid instead this season so we don't have to deal with his laziness on the back line. Still wish they held onto mendez though. No we have keal and I guess conde as the center of the defense.

Only good thing is the offensive side. Henry, cooper, agudelo and rogers is a nice foursome.

Suffering? Try being a Toronto FC fan... 5 years of disappointments.

Hopefully this year we can finally make some noise. Beating L.A. on Wednesday is the first step, but some MLS success would be nice too.

For a while NY would have an almost entire new roster before every season. I'm glad now I actually can be familiar with most of the team. I don't know how they ever expected to be any good without keeping a core.
One new signing from the USL, Jhonny Arteaga, is from a city next to mine, I played with him a few times. he's a cool dude and should be able to help out if he gets some playing time.
Marquez should be cut from the team...he's a waste of money. They should try to pursue Del Piero after this serie A season :D
I have a good feeling about the red bulls this year.....

I think scoring may be a very hard thing for Montreal to do this season. They do not look very confident up front.

Vancouver on the other hand look sharp, Hassli and Le Toux seem to work really well together.
