Just wanted to give a shout out to Toronto FC for winning last night. Maurice Edu scored and the Red Bulls added an own-goal as Toronto FC snapped a 12-game winless streak by defeating New York 2-1.
Toronto FC's fans deserve better. Hope they get a winner there soon.

Tony Sanneh playing for the Red Bulls...
According to the Red Card by Luis Arroyave on the Chicago Tribune, Tony Sanneh is set to train with the New York Red Bulls this week where he will finish the last three weeks of his rehab and train with the team. Sanneh believes he will sign with the Red Bulls once he gets medical clearance.
SFUSA's take: I love Tony Sanneh. Sanneh is exactly the type of player that MLS helped developed for the US National team and European squads. I hope he has enough gas in the tank to contribute to the Red Bulls.

Honduran midfielder Amado Guevara to Toronto?
Honduran midfielder Amado Guevara is about to be traded by Chivas USA to struggling Toronto FC for midfielder Paulo Nagamura and a draft pick. This will reunite Guevara and Coach Mo Johnston, who did not see eye to eye when they were together in New York.
Prior to signing with MLS, Guevara played all over the world: in Honduras with Motagua, Spain with Real Valladolid, Mexico with Tigres and Zacatepec, and Costa Rica with Saprissa. He was signed by the MetroStars on April 11, 2003.
While playing with Saprissa, he was a fan favorite, and is still remembered for his amazing skills. He had to leave the team because of the rule implemented by the "Morados" after 2003, by which they could only use Costa Rican players in their team.
Guevara immediately stepped into the MetroStars team and produced. Although he finished the season with only three goals and ten assists (he added another goal in the playoffs), he became the focal point of the team; they were successful when the offense flowed through him. Guevara added four key goals and two assists in the U.S. Open Cup, leading the Metros to the first final of any sort in the team's history.
Guevara tallied ten goals (six on penalties) and ten assists in his sophomore season. Guevara not only tied for the league lead in scoring, he was also named MLS's MVP. In 2005, Amado procuded another solid season for the Metros, with 11 goals and 11 assists, and added a goal in the playoffs.
In early 2006, a conflict arose between Guevara and the MetroStars. The club allowed him to train with Motagua, but Amado played for the Honduran club in a number of friendly matches, which might or might not have been permitted. Guevara lashed out in the Honduran press at the Metros' GM Alexi Lalas. But the two patched things up and Guevara remained in New York for the 2006 season. He received his green card in March 2006 and no longer counts as a foreign player in MLS. During the last game of the re-branded Red Bull New York season, Guevara scored three goals, a hat trick, to help them win 3-2 and reach the playoffs.
