Fútbol clip of the week, not really

After watching the Fulham v West Ham game, I realize that there's nothing better than watching two well-matched teams duke it out for that much needed point, even if they're just the little fish in a big pond. And for that I was going to post highlights of the game, becuase really, it was just splendid. However, it seems I was alone in my appreciation of this match and thus couldn't find any clips worth showing. But luckily for you footie fans, I will supply my completely arbitrary commentary for your pleasure.

Fulham put on quite a fight against the burgeoning West Ham. Alas, despite giving West Ham a run for their money, nothing went in the net. My advice to Fulham would be as such: scrape together whatever dough is in the till and purchase yourself a South American on the cheap. River Plate's Falcao, for example, would be a great candidate.

That said, Argentina is a fantastic resource for international teams, specifically in the UK, where they can add a bit of delicadessa to the thuggery that is British footie. The thing is, there's not much left of the Argentine greats. For instance, Palermo would make a great addition to a foreign team, but you can't have him without Palacio, and to break up that duo would be a crime. Then there's River Plate's Ortega, the aging gallego who's performance on the team has been consistently brilliant. And let's not even talk about Riquelme, who's tied to Argentina like a newborn baby to its mother (literally). None the less, there's a lot of newbies on those Argentian teams that can benefit greatly from globalization and a weak peso.

And if that doesn't suffice, one could easily snatch up a Brazillian. It seems they've become quite the crowd favorites with their little scissor kicks, look no further than Ronaldihno, KaKa and by extension, Ronaldo.

So get to it, Fulham.
