Sounds like the key topic at Sounders training today was the injury situation. Although it doesn't seem like much has been clarified yet regarding the availablity of Freddy Ljungberg, Zack Scott or Brad Evans for Saturday, when Seattle plays a pretty significant game at Colorado.

Here's coach Sigi Schmid:

On Ljungberg’s migraine: “We got to take it day-by-day. He’s had a history of these. He knows what it takes to come back. He doesn’t get them all that often. It’s something that usually happens every year to two years. So right now it’s just a matter of him knowing his body, and us being careful so that it doesn’t become a long-term thing.”

On concern about Ljungberg not being ready for the Rapids: “There’s always a concern whenever you’re missing a player. But the thing that I’ve learned over coaching over all the years is you focus on the guys who are going to play. We can have post mortems and talk about all the guys who are missing all the time, but then it takes away the focus from what we’re trying to do which is prepare for the game. So our preparation and our work and our focus is based upon the guys who are coming to play.”

On Scott and Evans’ MRIs: “Basically with Brad it’s just a pain-tolerance thing. How he does. Like he was in today, his ankle was almost bothering him more than anything else. It’s just a day-by-day situation with him. With Zach Scott it’s more of an abdominal injury, so just trying to again give it a couple of more days. He’ll definitely not be in this weekend. He’ll be out this weekend. We want to see, make sure, is it a sports hernia or is it just the abdominal? And that’s something that we still need a couple of days to decide… It’s good news. It’s just he’s (Evans), he could be back out trying to do more things tomorrow, or it could be a week, but we doubt it’s going to be much longer than that.”

On Pete Vagenas being ready: “He played 90 minutes in the other practice game. So I don’t know if he’s 90 minutes MLS fit at this stage, but I think he’s ready to start if we need him.”

One week into fans' all-star voting, the Sounders popularity is showing up in the online ballot box.

Seattle goalkeeper Kasey Keller is the overall leader in fan votes. And fellow-Sounders Freddie Ljungberg, Fredy Montero, Osvaldo Alonso, Tyrone Marshall, Steve Zakuani and Jhon Kennedy Hurtado and Sebastian Le Toux have also accumulated high enough totals in the first week of fan voting to be in the top 11.

Fans vote can vote up to 10 times per day through July 6 for one goalkeeper, three defenders, five midfielders and two forwards. The online fan balloting will comprise 25 percent of the total vote for the All-Star First XI, with coaches and general managers, players, and media each holding 25 percent of the vote.

The MLS all-stars will meet Everton of the English Premier League at Rio Tinto Stadiun in Sandy, Utah -- home of Real Salt Lake -- on July 29 at 6:30 p.m. The game will be show on ESPN2.
