Manchester United are set to undergo major changes after another disappointing season but former midfielder David Beckham hopes Cristiano Ronaldo sticks around for at least another year.
United's 4-0 hammering at Brighton & Hove Albion at the weekend means they cannot finish higher than sixth.
Giovani dos Santos is one of the most talented Mexican players of this century. I mean, nobody can doubt his skills as a baller and his iconic moments playing for El Tri, but at the same time, we all can agree on how exasperating and inconsistent his club resumé has been, which includes Barcelona, Tottenham, Villarreal, LA Galaxy and Ipswich Town, among others.
Proof of this erratic and unpredictable career is the fact most people probably don't know where he is playing right now or if he is playing at all.
Si bien Javier Hernández no anotó este fin de semana, la cuota goleadora de futbolistas mexicanos no estuvo ausente en la MLS.
A cargo de los festejos esta vez estuvo Ronaldo Cisneros, quien anotó su primer gol con el jersey del Atlanta United.
La conquista estuvo lejos de ser una oda a la belleza – vino después después de un par de rebotes – pero sirvió para que Atlanta se pusiera en ventaja en su visita al Inter Miami.
Gonzalo Higuaín hasn’t enjoyed the happy fun time he thought he’d have when he joined MLS in 2020. The Inter Miami striker, who has played for Real Madrid, Juventus and Chelsea, not to mention a World Cup final, famously lamented how surprised he was at the difficulty of playing in the U.S.
“I thought I would come here and play with a cigarette in my mouth, and instead it is difficult,” Higuaín said.
Following the addition of expansion side Charlotte FC, Major League Soccer's opening weekend features all 28 teams in action with nine matches on Saturday, Feb. 26, and five on Sunday, Feb. 27.

Lee Nguyen was always one of the more technically gifted players in the USMNT player pool. For 15 years he played all over the globe, from the Netherlands to Vietnam, Los Angeles to Boston.
On Friday, he announced his retirement to focus on coaching, re-signing as an assistant coach with the NWSL’s Washington Spirit.
Inter Miami began preseason training for the 2022 campaign this week, and Brek Shea was back with the club after signing a new deal on Wednesday. At 31, Shea is a versatile winger/wingback/left back with international experience and a couple of trophies on his shelf. He’s an artist on and off the pitch. He’s also a Texan who isn’t afraid of snakes.
Después de dos años sin muchas luces en el Inter Miami de la MLS, Rodolfo Pizarro está de regreso en el fútbol mexicano. Tras unos coqueteos con Chivas, el mediocampista finalmente puso su firma en un contrato que lo vincula al Monterrey.
En Rayados, Pizarro no es un extraño. De hecho, esta será la segunda experiencia del jugador en el equipo regio, tras lo hecho en la temporada 2018-19. En aquel entonces, The Joker fue fundamental para una campaña que incluyó el título del Apertura 2019 y la Liga de Campeones de la Concacaf.
As Major League Soccer prepares for the 2021 playoffs and an international break approaches, it’s worth looking back at some of the great international stars who have played in the league. David Beckham, Frank Lampard, Carlos Valderrama and Didier Drogba have all been huge names but have one thing in common: they never won a World Cup. Has an MLS player won the World Cup?
I can’t imagine the pressure of being the son of two world-famous celebrities. No matter what Romeo Beckham does with his life, it will be nearly impossible to live up to his dad, legendary footballer David Beckham, or his mother, famed Spice Girl/fashion icon Victoria Beckham. You gotta give Romeo credit for trying to follow in his father’s footsteps, even if he’s getting a bit of help from dear old dad in the process.
