We would like to wish you a happy holiday season and would like to check in with some of the work done by our successful Americans in the English Premier League.
First, DeAndre Yedlin was dropped for last weekend's game at Chelsea. That happened after he was taken off the pitch after 19 minutes the week before in a loss to Watford.
Said blogger Colin Randall: DeAndre Yedlin, 3 -- After promising shows in previous games, Yedlin lasted less than 19 minutes, managing at least twice to give the ball away in dangerous positions.
Moving to Merseyside, Everton fans are trying to figure out who they want to replace Tim Howard. Howard was booked for bringing down Jamie Vardy in the box for a penalty and the Toffees were beaten 3-2 by the best team in England last week. His lame effort came after this ill-advised attempt to use Twitter.
Everton fans in Australia want him off the team. Howard may best be advised to re-join MLS in order to avoid coverage like this media speculation.
Over in the basement, at least Brad Guzan is playing better than he did back in October. He has allowed 31 goals in 17 games, though mostly because he plays on such a terrible team. Aston Villa are winless in their last 16 games and look utterly hopeless.
And don't expect to see Geoff Cameron play over the holidays either.
In the Championship, Jonathan Spector is playing well in defence for Birmingham City and Tim Ream recently returned to face his old club, wretched Bolton Wanderers, in a 2-2 draw. Ream was last seen by your faithful blogger playing for Bolton in January in happier times for the club.
