New red kits are aweeeeeeeeeeeeeeesome.
Holden out for 6 months. That really sucks.
Pretty excited about the game tonight. Hope to see Juan Agudelo get his first start.
I really want that red kit with Stu's number on the back, but not confident he can stay healthy to live up to potential. Might need to go for the old #10
I'd like an Agudelo one but I'm afraid of him being the next Adu. A Bunbury one would be sweet but only if spelled boonbooree.
LOL losing to a team mexico just spanked 3-1 a couple of days ago
Donovan was sooooooo bad in all aspects. Wonder where his head was. Ream was great, so was Chandler. Lichaj was good in his short time. Agudelo was great whenever they actually got him the ball.
Got to see the highlights of the Para game. Heart BREAKING! So many miss goals! Either way we have a good crop of youngsters USA SOCCER IS A LIVE AND WELL! Bring on the GOLD CUP!!1
Man you must have watched another game. I saw maybe 3 shots on goal the entire match. Not many chances.
The depth chart as I see it going into the Gold Cup.
Striker
1a. Juan Agudelo
1b. Jozy
3. Edson Buddle
4. Teal Bunbury
5. Chris Wondoloski
2103283028230823028320. Robbie Findley
AMF
1. Clint Dempsy
2. Landon Donovan - I love Landon but Dempsy is playing better right now
3. Diskerud
4. Kletsjan
5. Bedoya
MF
This is hard because all three of these guys played well at times and bad at others lately. I hope MB90 gets playing time soon.
1a. Bradley
1b. Jones
1c. Edu
4. Dax McCarty
Gets really tough after this. I guess you can consider players like Torres and Convey at the edge of the mix. Brek Shea too, maybe. Maybe even Beasley. Holden being out really sucks ass.
CD
1. Ream - anyone who thinks different. So tired of seeing our backs just boot the ball right away. Ream is the only one who doesn't do this. Dude MUST be starting during the gold cup.
2. Bocanegra
3. Gooch
4. Demerrit
5. Gonzales
I really want to put Gonzales above Demerrit but here's to hoping Jay gets some form back by actually playing in the MLS as opposed to sitting on his ass.
RB/LB
1. Cherundulo
2. Chandler - love this kid. LOVE LOVE LOVE
3. Lichaj
4. Bornstien.
24902840284028490284902810498409. Spector - I know this er is going to be on the roster and it pisses me off.
I might list Buddle above Jozy right now. Jozy has more overall skill but Buddle is the better finisher by far.
Pretty funny how much we've come in 9 months at the striker position though. Agudelo and Bunburry are great prospects for the future there. Our midfield depth is solid and now with Ream, Lichaj and Chandler in the mix in the back that is looking fairly nice as well.
Ok missed goal I ment bad touchs. There was the one LD had at the side. There was a cross that went over the top bar. That one shot CD took was interesting.
Gold Cup is going to be an outstanding test for the youngsters.
I think he means missed opportunities. We had way more chances and blew it with awful passing and awful shots.
Beasley needs to be off the MNT for good (and I think he is)... Chandler seems to have landed himself a long term position with 2 very solid showings.
looks like beating up on Mexico is going to be hard this year..
Doubt It.
Why does mexico play the majority of its friendlies in the USA? Is your country good for anything these days?
you mad bra?
Should be a good Gold Cup. I would make Mexico the favorites, but only slightly so. You may have Chicarito playing now, but we still have Howard. Hopefully by summer more of our team is in form.
lol having Howard isn't going to stop Chicharito... just ask the other EPL goalkeepers... and that's what makes Mexico even tougher, that while you're worried about Chicharito, others will step up.
They all want what he has...
So I wouldn't make them slight favorites, they should be pretty much the only favorite since most of the team is pretty much played together for a while now.. the US team however, that one has been changing way too often.. and it hasn't looked pretty.
