Meh. I know he's saving Mixx and Gatt for the Olympics, but I'd like to see them w/ the full squad eventually. And where the hell is Benny!?
 
And I'm assuming we all know about Stu Holden's news

Worst. Luck. Ever...

3.5 devastating, season ending, freak injuries before he even reached his prime.

Like who does that happen to?

Michael Bradley finally starts his international career without the added pressure of playing underneath pops, he looked good in the one Chievo game I've seen.

What the hell does this man Omar Gonzalez have to do to get a look? What about George John? I guess MLS playoffs are coming up but still, nothing against Ream or Orozco Fiscal but we've seen them, we'll continue to see them, why not give other equally deserving guys a look? We better see some turnover spread across the board in November.

Lol we will see about this in the next two games.

I will gladly retract my statements if he shows me up
 
Omar Gonzalez open to playing for mexico..nothing to worry about though, hes just trynna pressure Klinsmann to call him in.
 
Good first half, is crappy weather conditions. Dempsey with the class. Danny Williams looking good.

VAMOS USA!!!!!!!!!!!

Jozy was mediocre AGAIN today

Like I said, I KNOW that he is doing well for his club. But for the NT he shows up once in a while; rest of the time, he's mediocre/terrible. To be fair that describes 80% of the squad so can't really single him out

Anways, Dempsey

dude isn't an elite player by any means but is definitely one of my favorites. Besides Holden (

), Donovan, and Howard there's not really any player on the NT that I actually like. Shea is starting to get there though despite his miss today

Watched the game this morning...

-Alright, Klins, enough with this Orozco Fiscal clown...
-Shea looked good again. Him and Chandler on the same side could be something to watch. They connected well.
-I want to see more of Danny Williams.
-We still can't finish for $@**. Luckily, Honduras couldn't finish any of those chances they had early in the 2nd half either.
-Glad we finally got a W under Klins.

I was bout to say, yall just pick and choose who you go in on.

WE ARE A VERY MEDIOCRE TEAM

Without Howard, Clint, and Landon we're worse than that. I hate to say it but it is what it is. On the scale that most of yall rate Jozy, you'd have to go all the way back to the World Cup to find a truly above average individual performance from a player in a US shirt, not counting Timmy. 

Jozy is the best striker in our pool by a wide margin. As sexy as Agudelo is on the ball, he's still at least a season or two away from being the all around striker Jozy is and that's saying a lot considering some of the weaknesses in Jozy's game. 

I have a feeling some of yall get so caught up in looking for the negative in one player that you miss what the other 21 are doing. I know Orozco hasn't been all that popular in his couple of appearances but he was way better than Bocanegra last night. Boca downright !#*#, Orozco covered for him all night and he was a blackhole where possession went to die when playing out of the back. 
 
..and there's a rumor that now since France clinched their Euro spot today, they'll play the USMNT at the Stade de France next month.
