    its the NEW YORK REDBULLS…. WHAT THE HECK IS COSMOS…? WE’RE NOT IN 1990..

  2. dru says:

    why that money come on u can do better

  3. Asomani says:

    It’s the same team from the 90′s
    The Cosmos are back

  4. Chrish says:

    @Itscoby you need to check your facts before opening your mouth wide to talk. New York Red Bulls is different from New York Comos ok. Red Bulls’ Head coach is Hans Backe while Comos have appointed Eric Catonona the French man as their head coach.

  5. Ghanas Son says:

    Oh Bro Laryea… I remember your hey days. I will love to see you in one of the black stars friendly matches tho. May the almighty God be with you.

  6. DKH says:

    @Chrish, you need to check you facts before you keep talking. The Cosmos do not have a team nor a league to play in. And Cantona is a director of relations for them, not a coach. Cosmos hacw no team, no coach and no players, only a front office with marketing.

  7. Kofi Osei says:

    DKH has got it right. New York Cosmos is expected to join the MLS earliest in 2014.

  8. Mike says:

    There is no MLS team called the New York Cosmos.
    All the Cosmos are are a PR front with no players and no league to play in.

  9. Clayton John says:

    The NY Cosmos is NOT an MLS team…nor a team at all for that matter. They do not have a senior team, just two youth academies. One in NY and one in Los Angeles.

  10. WendellGee says:

    Hilarious. There is no such team as the “New York Cosmos” people. None. There are some business men who bought the rights to the name “New York Cosmos” trying to convince MLS to award them the 20th MLS team and to sell replica jerseys. Yes, they allegedly “hired” Cantona, but in nothing more than a PR stunt. He has no real job. IF such a team is granted to these businessmen (and not to one of the other interested candidates like Miami, St Louis, Atlanta, etc) they would begin playing actual games NO EARLIER than 2014, according to MLS officials.

    As for what Kingston has signed up for….no idea. There are rumors that the people behind these “Cosmos” are trying to find enough players to play a one-time friendly against someone, but for right now they do not have a league and do not have even one player. That is, they do not exist.
