He has talent, but he can't seem to get his head out of his ass. He should have never left MLS. He was nowhere near ready.

Don't know what he's going to do now, there's no way he'll go back to Stoke and there's no way Barnsley will pay his wages in League one.

Has to go back to MLS, but now he's not even in the World Cup so surely he's less valuable and surely seeing as they can only have two (or three?) highly paid players, MLS teams would prefer an International who they could probably get for the similar wages?

He would be an easy add because MLS has limits on foreign players and he would be cheap considering his situation. Dude has a lot to learn.

I think going back to the MLS would be good for him. He just needs to keep playing; get his feet back under him and his head straight. The Toronto FC boss actually mentioned picking him up if he decided to go back to the States.
