There will be plenty of this about the net no doubt and i will add to it. If anyone has any thoughts themselves for the season then feel free to let us know.

Where's big Kenny Deaucher playing this season?

He signed for Real Salt Lake.

Thanks Wet sail. From memory RSL are described as 'being a bit pish' so here's hoping the big man shines for them. I can't find odds nor previews for this. anyone help me out? thanks

Goal.com have been putting up previews for each team. Don't think they've done them all yet though. Was going to post them as soon as they were all done.

No odds around yet though!

Can't make up my mind about how Deuchar will do over there. How would we equate MLS to, say, the SPL? Because for me, Deuchar wasn't SPL quality. I've watched him extensively in the Scottish lower leagues and he's a fine player at that standard, but he got found out big time in the top league. Christ, he couldn't even do it at Northampton.

If the MLS has anything about it, the good doctor should fade into obscurity. Good luck to him though, would be great to see a Scot go over there and bang in the goals. Especially a pish one.

:lo i totally agree i think Wet Sail. Then again maybe his height could cause them probs as every mls ive watched they seem to like to fire in the crosses. Maybe im just talking out my arse

Don't have much input here as i haven't managed to follow this league as much as before unfortunately.

As for Deucher. I am unsure of how he will fare. The MLS is a much faster paced league than the SPL which won't suit him. The players are all round technically very good and it will be interesting to see how he adapts to the league with the huge change in weather etc.

For £8000 a week though and a guaranteed medical job on top of that he will do alright for himself
