Opa!!!!

Fulham F.C. has announced that Eddie Johnson has been sent on loan to Greek club Aris Salonika until the end the season. After only appearing 4 times for the Cottagers this year, EJ is hoping for more playing time as he looks to secure a spot on the U.S. World Cup roster. Aris Salonika sits in a 3 way tie (Kavala, Panionios) for 5th in the Greek Super League. They are hoping Eddie can give them the added offensive boost to claim the final Europa League spot. At this point I don't have too much optimism for Eddie, but I do wish him the best. I have never doubted his skill, talent or his ambition, but after a sub par loan with Cardiff and failed attempt with Fulham, I'm starting to wonder if his lack of success is more mental than anything. I do hope this opportunity is the break through he needs and he finally lives up to the potential we all see.
