Copenhagen Files
I love football and I love the Internet. Copenhagen Files is a playground of mine for the latter and a billboard of the former. The focus is on FC København - the #1 club in Copenhagen and Denmark.
I watch every single FC København game - aways usually on the Danish TV, home games currently from my season ticket seat at Parken Stadium. Every now and then a report from the nearby training pitches are to be expected. Or perhaps just from the supporter environment at local parks or bars ;-)
I also like to bet on games which usually takes place online these days. Therefore, I gather numbers and look at them; I analyze, twist, turn and play with them. And some of them ends up here as my probability assessments. But this blog is not about betting.
In the right hand column I collect every single relevant link you can think of. I actually use it for bookmarks often - perhaps they will prove handy to you too? They should easily guide you to the latest info on injuries, club economy, squad value etc.

Whoa! This one actually mentions him: All eyes on US, Mexico in semis.
[Canadian] veterans include Deportivo La Coruna midfielder Julian de Guzman, [...] FC Copenhagen midfielder Atiba Hutchinson [...]
"Canada is very organized and they are playing very well," [US coach Bob] Bradley said. "Hutchinson and de Guzman, a lot goes through those two, and we know De Rosario well. It's good to get a different matchup in the semifinal."

Hutchinson said the mood was sombre back at the hotel.
"Tough mood to be in after losing such a game," Hutchinson said before boarding his flight home. "I thought we played well, especially in the second half.
"Of course, a lot of guys were not really happy with what happened in the end and the result. But now there's not much you can really do about it."
The Brampton, Ont., native, a midfielder for F.C. Copenhagen in the Danish league, said he and his teammates watched replays of the goal on TV after the game.
The replays showed Hutchinson even with the last American defender before starting his dash to the ball, so the goal should have stood.
"They showed it over and over," Hutchinson said.
"It was tough to see how it happened."
