LOL. Dempsey signing would not "blow" up the city image. Pmsl if you think that. Very few Americans give enough of a toss to start supporting city let alone because of dempsey. He's not as big of a name as Donovan. I love clint and met him about 5 years ago, very good honest hard working player but no point in you all signing him.
Someone said give him 100k, Fuck me that's gotta be a shit attempt at wumming.

Depends on who you are trying to attract. The Americans who pay attention to football view Dempsey as a bigger name. The Americans who see soccer on every 4 years know Donovan more. Donovan = blanket marketing, Dempsey = target marketing.
Still not worth 100k though.

I was at the Canada v US game on the weekend and both Dempsey and Donavon were useless - they were completely invisible for most of the game. Canada isn't exactly a top team so if they can't do well with Canada's defence, then they're in no way good enough for the Champions!
So, you're basing your opinion on how good Dempsey is, on one friendly rather than on a whole season where he scored 23 goals from midfield (for a fairly average Fulham team)? Seems legit.MJ said:I was at the Canada v US game on the weekend and both Dempsey and Donavon were useless - they were completely invisible for most of the game.

Have a look at how many he's scored in the previous 5 seasons. He's decent but there is a reason he'll soon be pushing 30 and has been at Fulham for 6 years.

In the seasons in which he scored 7 he played less than 28 games.

And was it 3 in the one before that ? Nothing against the lad as I do think he's a decent player, just not what we need IMO......
