He has been injured a lot this season but is fit now, I understand. I can't really see him getting back into the midfield right now, especially as Ballouchy seems to be FC's bet right now. Kind of agree with you re Pablo. I hope to speak to him tomorrow about his plans.Nick Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09530941554925335967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8249539192401757288.post-37635036521697295362008-07-10T09:25:00.000-06:002008-07-10T09:25:00.000-06:00I wish Pablo well, but I'd be shocked if he got pi...I wish Pablo well, but I'd be shocked if he got picked up by a team in Serie A or La Liga. Maybe Serie B. He is a strong player and has performed admirably for the US but he's getting rather long in the tooth to play competitive European soccer. If he wanted to make this move, why didn't he pursue it a few years ago?<BR/><BR/>Nick, have you heard anything about the development of Nico Colaluca? I liked him while he was at U Va, but he is drawing a pretty fair salary and hasn't done anything for the Rapids, not even an appearance. Ciaran O'Brien is already seeing action. Is Nico in hiding, still injured, or what? Is he a lost cause, another first-round MLS flameout?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
