This is fantastic. This can benefit both MLS and the Premier League. It will give MLS a huge lift in media coverage during the tournament and if one MLS team can sneak into the semis it would be amazing for the league. Now, when is Arsenal going to sign up and play FC Dallas at home???

Hleb was not looking to go down, Eboue and I'd agree. Hleb may have not been "going for goal," only because there was a defender between him and the goal. Did you expect him to go straight through Kuyt? Instead, Hleb was driving to the line in an attempt to get around Kuyt to cut the ball back. While running at high speed, Kuyt yanked on his arm, near the elbow, not shoulder. I don't know about anyone else, but when I am moving at speed my balance is a little off and I tend to fall under less contact than it would take if I had both my feet planted securely under me. It was a penalty. Kuyt made contact with Hleb inside the box in an illegal manner and brought Hleb down. End of story.

I pulled this off a video I downloaded so it is not the best quality, but how is this not a penalty???

I knew it Michael. This just proves how much you hate Arsenal, oh, wait... never mind, gut reaction. I kid, I kid. I think you have some good names in there. Definitely agree that although Sir Alex is great a soccer mom could have managed Man U to a great season with the way they are playing this year.

As an Arsenal fan I am devastated, the penalty decision hurts. The league is going to be a miracle at this point, but maybe this will convince Arsene that he needs to spend some money to add some depth and play Walcott.

As a resident of the Dallas/Fort Worth area I can say that Hicks' incompetence is no surprise. Hicks tries to run his teams like his businesses with no concerns for sport. He simply should not own sports franchises.
