Top DC United Related Stories *(Updated)

1) MLS Draft Combine starts today...the quest for Tchani begins!!!!
Soccer By Ives is providing match commentary here.
Pro Player Pipeline also has match commentary and player evals as well as 5 up and 5 down at MLSDraft.net.


2) Who replaces Emilio?
As we found out yesterday, Emilio is gone. Kevin Payne came out shortly after his departure was announced and said they had planned for him not to take the lower salary offered and that they wanted to go in a different direction. So what is next? Who is next? What style player are they bringing in? Are they going to run with what they have instead of consistently playing Quaranta, Pontius and Khumalo out of position on the wing? I doubt that for some reason. But it would allow some money to be spent for some premium midfielders.

3) Chris Pontius takes in his first US Men's National Team camp.
An interview was posted on Behind the Badge along with some pictures. Go get 'em Party Boy! Show them what we're made of!
