O' Brother Where Art Thou?

It's two weeks on into the English transfer window and wantaway U.S. player Michael Bradley is yet to find an English home. Rumors abound with Boro at the top for the USA boss's son but where he'll land no one knows. Monaco has tabled a bid and possibly Leverkusen. I hope he goes to an English side.

A case of nepotism could be made against Boss Bradley for showcasing his son in recent months to make sure he had the neccessary Caps to gain an English work permit for his expected move this summer. I would certainly be complaining more if one, Michael wasn't a good enough player and two, Jozy Altidore hadn't been signed to play in La Liga. As it stands we'll save the pitchforks and torches for another day.

Oh and at least it looks like he got Brad Guzan enough Caps to get a WP to sigh with Villa. (fingers crossed)

Back to possible destinations. Easier to rule out teams than decide who will actually get young Bradley's services. Out: The Big Four, Fulham, Tottenham, Hull, West Brom, Stoke, Man City. That leaves ten to choose from. Your guess is as good as mine. One team not mentioned with Michael is Newcastle and in my not so humble opinion they could use him. Look for something to happen in the next week. My money is on Middlesborough.
