Thierry Henry and Tim Cahill combined to play the entire game Saturday, and while both looked good (Henry, great) both players, along with Fabian Espindola and Connor Lade, are on the coaching staff's watch list heading into this weekend's game against the Chicago Fire. Cahill, who admitted after the game he was playing hurt in addition to coming off two World Cup qualifiers for Australia this weekend, is being watch for a calf strain, according to Franco Panzio at MLSsoccer.com. In addition, Henry's MCL sprain is still a cause for concern for Head Coach Mike Petke and company. Espindo...

So the Red Bulls two best forwards aren't in great shape. Thierry Henry, despite theories suggesting otherwise, is still nursing the MCL injury that took him out of last week's game in Montreal. Fabian Espindola tweaked his hamstring during the closing moments of Tuesday's practice. That means both of them are touch-and-go for Saturday's match-up with the Philadelphia Union. With the two out, the Red Bulls are rendered a bit thin up top. Peguy Luyindula, who had a good game against the Montreal Impact sans finishing, will likely get the start, but who joins him is up in the air. If the...

Looks like new signing Peguy Luyindula will be ready for Saturday. With Thierry Henry nursing an MCL injury and a strong aversion to artificial turf, ahead of Saturday's game against the undefeated Montreal Impact, the former Pairs Saint-Germain striker could be a solutions for the Red Bulls up top. When Luyindula signed earlier this week, there were questions as to whether or not he would be available, with the Frenchman needing to work out his visa before being eligible to play. If Head Coach Mike Petke does give Luyindula the nod, it's not as if he's being thrown into the fire after...

Not that you didn't know already, but Thierry Henry isn't going to be playing this Saturday against the Montreal Impact. According to a tweet MLSsoccer.com's Franco Panzio, an MRI revealed Henry sprained his MCL. Henry came off late Saturday against D.C. United, with reports citing a knee injury that "does not appear serious." That he won't play against l'Impact is hardly surprising. Even though Montreal put new turf down -- last year's surface at the Olympic Stadium appeared to be squares of turf laid out -- the man never plays on turf, save the carpet at Portland's Jeld-Wen Field. Pa...

With the MLS season just a few days away, we preview the Red Bulls with daily position-by-position previews. You can read all of them here. Today: The Red Bulls' situation up front. If only for Thierry Henry, the forward position is likely the Red Bulls' strongest position. The midfield? Questions about Juninho's age. The defense? Who know's who will start where. The wings? A lot of unproven players will line up there. But Henry, since his first full season with the team, has played at least 25 games and scored at least 14 goals. He's still got the respect of his peers. And, some of ...
