Forget Becks and his sorry United being. City 1.0 United!

As for that match, Altidore is the real deal. Bob Bradley you must give this kid a crack at the senior national team NOW!

What a great game. I taped the game and watched in the morning with my son again. Anyone who doubts Beckham's impact on the game is nuts. He is such a great set up man, His corner on the 4th goal was a piece of art. The crowd seemed really into the game and had the feel of some the European games.

An incredible match. If New York doesn't fall in love with their soccer team, I don't know what will.

It played like a movie. I was almost expecting Beckham to get a last minute equalizer but that would have been unfair against an on-form Red Bulls team. LA had their moments too.

The only shame about this game was that it was on Fox instead of ESPN. THe latter would have given it a bigger audience (and therefore exposure).

Jozy Altidore to Chelsea, anyone?

Cheers,

The Gaffer
