No Savage for Vancouver

The BBC is reporting Derby midfielder Robbie Savage's proposed move to Vancouver Whitecaps is dead in the water, for now at least. Savage has said he may join a new club in the summer following the conclusion of his Derby contract. If Vancouver had landed the 36-year old it would have been a bit of a coup. Though the legs aren't what they were Savage is still an excellent presence on the pitch and a fantastic player in the locker room. He does have a burgeoning media career in England, and he would have been a fantastic addition to MLS' s not so personable media department after his career ends.
