Chivas USA came real close to securing the star player that their fans have been yearning for during their recent stretch of playoff futility in MLS.

Argentine star midfield Juan Román Riquelme was set to become the face of Chivas USA and follow his compatriot, Carlos Bianchi, who was to take over the coaching reins.

However, Bianchi has since taken over at Boca Juniors in Argentina and Chivas USA proceeded to name Mexico native José Luis Sánchez Solá as manager.

At least that's the story that Riquelme himself revealed to Argentine outlet TyC Sports on Saturday (listen to the Spanish-language radio interview here at the 1:30 mark).

“Ten days before [Bianchi] went to Boca, he invited me to his house to go with him to Los Angeles because he was going to be coach of Chivas in Los Angeles," Riquelme said. "And I told him that I’d be going to Los Angeles with him and that there was no problem [on my end]. And then 10 days later, he came to an agreement with Boca.”

What about Denílson?

Oh yeah and him too, it just frustrates me when someone with so much talent is about to cash in,gets derailed

 

[International Playa]

I think Adriano's father died. which is why shyt went downhill for him since.

I guess death affects us differently, Frank Lampard's mother died, the next day, Lampard was on the pitch playing


Lampard is a legend, came to the game played at its highest level and maintained a good character on and off the field. Real professional

Is anyone actually gonna watch ACN?

I've never actually watched it but who has the best chances? As of right now Spain has a cakewalk in the Confederations Cup (those matches against Uruguay lookin tasty though).

If it was properly televised, maybe.

I'll just wait and stream the final, I guess.

Is it unwatchable? I love watching them play one of the big sides. They get intimidating as fukk, the crowd doubles their volume, an awesome game breaks out, and I laugh at these $200 million dollar teams unable to beat a solid team of hard-workers because they "don't play the game the right way".

It's what football's about, giving anyone a chance to win no matter their constitution, you fukking fakkit.

Didn't Adriano's girl also leave him around that period?

would be interesting to see if messi could challenge his 2012 goal tally this early in the year.

When the fukk is Ben Amos gonna leave Utd?
He's just wasting his time. He could be playing for a top Championship club.
