I like to think he was driven to it by West Ham. It's all about the small victories for us... He played in the reserves game last night.Comedy Quaddafi wrote:Sol is back with Arsenal. Let's see how that works out.
I'm honestly not to keen on him because of how he left the club. But let's see.
Did you see Adebayor on Sky Sports News talking about the terrible Togo team incident? He was wearing... an Arsenal shirt!

in a newsclip after the incident he was standing around disinterested in the background. Then when he noticed he was being filmed he started to hold his head in agony and looked sad all of a sudden in a really over-the-top manner. Hes the worst human to ever have lived.
Whether to Jason of Philaflava or John Podesta, I will speak my fucking perspective openly

Absolutely amazing. The emotional uplift this would give our squad is immeasurable. Nobody in our talent pool can do the things Davies can, to have him back for the WC would be a godsend.By Ives Galarcep wrote:Charlie Davies is lucky to be alive. He knows it, and even if he were to forget, there are plenty of reminders.
There are the surgical scars that now tattoo the American soccer star's body. There are the constant reminders from family and friends who never let him forget what he nearly lost, and what he has already overcome. Then there are the pictures burned into his memory of the mangled car he was pulled from after he survived a car crash that killed another passenger on Oct. 13. Davies, 23, sustained multiple serious injuries (a broken right femur and tibia, a broken left elbow, facial fractures and a lacerated bladder). The prognosis was that he would face an arduous six- to 12-month recovery and extensive rehabilitation.
The strongest reminders of how fortunate Davies is come from Davies himself as he pushes through what is shaping up to be a miraculous recovery from that laundry list of major injuries. Less than four months after the crash that threatened to end his promising career, Davies is already jogging at a good rate and working on agility drills that would have seemed impossible just weeks earlier, when simply getting out of a wheelchair was an exhausting exercise.
What does this progress mean, exactly? It means that, barring any setbacks, Davies could be back on the field with club team FC Sochaux by April, meaning his chances of playing for the United States in June's World Cup should no longer be seen as a shattered dream.
"Charlie is pretty much light years ahead of where anybody would tell you he should be," said Jim Hashimoto, the former U.S. national team trainer who is overseeing Davies rehabilitation. "When everybody heard about the accident, including myself, it was like, 'OK, this is going to be a long one' -- and it's still going to be a long one, but to see his progress is pretty amazing."
Just how amazing? The multiple broken bones in his leg, face and elbow have healed. So has a torn posterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, and he has recovered from bladder surgery, which left a foot-long scar on his stomach. He has regained the 15 pounds he lost after enduring six surgeries following the crash, and is days away from undergoing his final surgery associated with the accident, a procedure to remove a bone, plate and screws from his left elbow. After a week to recover from that surgery, Davies expects to be back training with Sochaux by the end of February.
