[DylanBClayton]

@DylanBClayton

Hey smartypants... Did you read the title: it has a "?" on it. You know what the means? That the guests of the show disagreed with Simon, and BY THE WAY, had no idea before the show that he was going to say that about Ream.

[dwreck1971]

@DylanBClayton What's poor are you listening skills.

[BmanCeltic]

He has no idea what he is talking about at all, if his opinion meant anything at all then for one this video would have much more views, the premier league teams would be listening to what he is saying and third who is Simon Allen. Never heard of this guy before and obviously Tim's doing somehting right by gaining interest from multiple premier league teams.

@BmanCeltic

More views? This video has been up about a week and it has 1000 views on youtube, 8,000 views on bigsoccer, and 13,000 views on The Straight Red Card. I'd say that makes your assessment here a little off. Simon Allen was a GUEST on the show. The guys disagreed with Simon concerning Tim (if you bothered to LISTEN). I understand you not liking a guest on the show, but don't blame the SHOW, or belittle the fact that TSRC is the most watched soccer show on on the web.

Everyone needs to stop hating on Simon Allen. Yes he was harsh on ream but saying john is better then ream was dead brilliant.

[dwreck1971]

For those not liking Simon Allen's comments so far, well, that's why we bring other people in! Different opinions! I think Derek and Simon just have to agree to disagree on Tim Ream...

[danmeiring]

It's Zat, not Zac.

[aeternusero]

I had great hopes for Ream, but, he makes terrible mistakes, on the international stage and in MLS. I'm all for him learning his trade overseas, but, seriously, sometimes I wonder what the scouts watch to sign players.

[dwreck1971]

@aeternusero

See, not everyone disagrees with Simon!

[ChampCarforlife]

Tim needs to play somewhere in Europe before playing in the Premier League.

[jmoorecu88]

go back to england and try to reclaim some class simon

[jmoorecu88]

man ive really enjoyed these over the last few months, but if i have to listen to the ignorant simon allen again that might be it for me. im gonna go ahead and trust klinsmann and owen coyle, both of which have praised ream. u dont become a coach in the best league in the world by picking up people who "suck". oh and if u actually watched those redbull games ud know that marquez was the worst player on the team in multiple games

[dwreck1971]

@jmoorecu88

He's only on for a few segments all of which end "with Simon Allen." So if you don't like him, I suppose you could skip it. I think Derek clearly states what you did above: Coyle and Hodgson and others can't be "blind'!

[pahwraith]

Tim Ream did coast on a good rookie season. Jalil Anibaba had a better '11 season.

[jadedfeelings21]

The MLS guys were basing their argument on Cooper's soft feet

[dwreck1971]

@jadedfeelings21

Hmmm. Well, I guess I'll have to disagree with their assessment. Do you know which one of the MLS guys said this? Derek and Brett know those guys and have had them on the show before. Would make an interesting debate to have one of them back on...

[jadedfeelings21]

@dwreck1971 it was Greg Lalas

[dwreck1971]

@jadedfeelings21

Ah, Greg and Alexi have both avoided coming on the show thus far...

[melojordans23]

Everton like americans because we are cheap english speakers that he can fit into the team as soon as possible.

[jadedfeelings21]

I was listening to the guys over at MLS and they said something interesting. They said that the Kenny Cooper should be given a chance to play on the wings. What's you're guys' take on that? Also I looked it up and Cooper and Brek Shea are the same height.

[dwreck1971]

@jadedfeelings21

Problem is that Cooper is slow as shet. Playing on the wings when you're that slow--I'm not sure the guys at MLS know what the fuck they're talking about--even though we're friends with them...
