Of course he's bloody versatile. He'll be playing on the wing for half the season and in nets for the other half.

Stoke have apparently made a bid according to the Houston TV announcer. Seems a reliable source.

twitter.com/#!/GlennDavisSoc
Stoke City has put in bid for @geoffcameron of Dynamo. Thoughts fans?

Davis has hosted The Soccer Hour with Glenn Davis on KPFT and KBME as well as written a twice weekly soccer column for the Houston Chronicle. He also serves as the TV play-by-play voice for Houston Dynamo games.

I think America's potentially a good market for Pulis.

English-speaking and generally a good work ethic.

Seems a good size as well. Could he be cageable in midfield as well as cover at the back?

Yes, America is definitely a good size.

To those that attempt to perpetrate the myth that it was the fault of the fans, I will never tire of reminding them that it was the ordinary fans that were the real heroes of the day, not the villains. They reacted, while those in authority froze.

Interesting that that Houston announcer has gone on to suggest we maybe see him as a midfielder.

He does look cageable based on his size and apparent quality on the ball.

I love how open the MLS are with salaries.

Looks like he's on a guaranteed $255,000-a-year there, so a head-turning wage increase would be easily manageable.

On twitter saying initial talks went well for the new defender come midfielder.

Apparently Cameron impressed Tone with his knowledge of all the films that Tone's favourite actor Nicolas 'cage' has appeared in. Looks like Cameron has done his homework.
