For the price of the seats, it better be someone good ! :-)
Mr. Paul,
go off the chart...
Bundesliga...
(Bayern or St. Pauli!!!)
let's see something we don't see a lot of...(english, italian)
I enjoyed Pachuca and Indepediente...let's stay on that theme.
I'll say the opponent comes from either Mexico or CONMEBOL where we'd get a fairly well-known team like Millionarios (sp?) from Colombia or something.
Boca!
I'd love to see more top Argy Bargy or Brazilian teams.
Please scrap these USELESS FRIENDLIES DURING MID SEASON!!!
What about Top Teams from Uzbekistan?
Top Euro club? Like West Ham or Villa?
Maybe they'll get their fucking act together and follow suit with Seattle and whoever else has proper friendlies.
Bayern
Porto
Inter
Chelsea
As much as we want to see those teams, I can't see MLSE ponying up the dosh to bring those type of teams in. My $0.02
^^what d'you know though!?!
I'd like to see someone like FC Twente or PSG or Hertha Berlin
They could do that right?
What about Kaizer Chiefs from South Africa or Gremio??
Any of those would be alright.
Actually, I think a Dutch team would be awesome to watch....maybe poach a player off em'
Marsielle? Lyon? Sporting?
^^Ya, you can't tell me you can't get a great club from one of the "lower" euro leagues. Or a really big south american team.....you can do it!
CSKA Moscow? Zenit? Tolouse FC.. for the battle of the TFC?
Penarol!!!!
Besiktas? Galatasaray? Hoffenheim?
I agree that the friendlies don't help during a crowded schedule.
I think the reason things shifted to South American teams last year was to get an idea of the type of football that we'd see if we made it to CONCACAF CL and to also establish contacts in that part of the footballing world. Pablo Vitti is here now because he played in the friendly last year...
What about getting Henrik Larsson to play here... then sign him!
Helsingborg for the win!
Or how about getting the De Guzman's here... Deportivo or Feyenoord!
There's only one Julian De Guzman, There's only one Julian De Guzman
His brother 's a hore (then I forget the rest)
Living in a de Guzman Wonderland
Scunthorpe!!
I'm glad we've all got world wide soccer knowledge. But I think the GTA is still an Anglo-centric draw. Someo of those great teams in Holland, Mexico, or France may not create the buzz. Meaning English and either Rangers or Celtic would be the biggest draw. The only other huge draws would top Spanish, or top Italian clubs. Anything else, I feel, will be just another friendly.
My $0.02 I think it will be Rangers, maybe part of the deal to take Edu, was a friendly? Not sure.
