re: US Soccer Roster Discussion (for May/June 2012)quote:  time to bring Coop back home to his rightful place with the USMNT...  Reply • Back to Top |
| I think that was more of a tongue in cheek comment from Sheep. Cooper has had a decent season so far, but almost all of his goals have been created by Henry. He's finishing finally, but he's not creating many other chances like Klinsmann wants out of his forwards. Reply • Back to Top |
| Kenny Cooper ? LOL Reply • Back to Top |
Posted by joey barton on 5/7 at 8:08 pm to thenry712 I agree but not necessarily at CM. As long as we have Bradley, Edu, Jones, and some of the younger, they might be able to play there, Germans; I think that we're covered there We're much stronger at CM than we were last cycle Reply • Back to Top |
| what about super stu? Reply • Back to Top |
Posted by joey barton on 5/7 at 8:13 pm to fightingtigers98 Left him out because of his injury status, not anything else But if he's fit, absolutely Reply • Back to Top |
| These count for eligibility, right? Can we put Omar's broken body on the field for 30 seconds v. shitty island nations? Reply • Back to Top |
| I think Boyd n Corona deserve a call up over Buddle n Feilhaber. Im not sure that Feilhaber is in great form, but itd nice to have his experience. Buddle is in a terrible funk. Onyewu isnt hurt. If I had to pick Howard Guzan Rimando Whitbread Lichaj Chandler Bocanegra Dolo Onyewu Goodson Johnson Torres Williams Bradley Donovan Dempsey Jones Kljestan Corona Altidore Gomez Boyd Adu This post was edited on 5/7 at 8:48 pm Reply • Back to Top |
| You bring up a good point. I would imagine that anybody of questionable nationality that didn't play in last year's Gold Cup will play against Antigua so they're permanently cap tied. Reply • Back to Top |
 Well Corona did work for the U23s. Then he took his form back to mexico. If Bunburry n Agudelo can get call ups so can Boyd. I think Boyd n Corona can provide depth off the bench.I edited to take edu off n add jones. I think Adu,Jones,Boyd,Corona, Chandler, off the bench would be huge. Reply • Back to Top |
quote: This is pretty much my exact thoughts on Corona as well.. finishes well but not creating many chances or doing much of anything else. I just don't know if that's worth a starting spot or not.. depends on how much creation we have in the rest of the field. Reply • Back to Top |
| Corona isnt a 90 min type player, just a role player. I think if thats just his role we are ok. Also, we arent going to have a full A squad. Id like to put edu on the list buthe isnt better than Jones or Bradley. So something has to give. Jones is more techinical than Edu n gives just as much effort. If we have to pick a few bad players for depth why not Corona n Boyd was my point. Also, Klejstan just won the league title withanderlecht Reply • Back to Top |

| I honestly dont know how Klinnsman is going to pick for his first meaningful match. I could see Rimando, maybe Guzan, (i mean one of them will be left off for Hamid) Whitbread, Williams, Edu, Gomez left off I could see Beasley, Shea, Agudelo, maybe bunbury, Beckerman and Wondo on the list. Its all personal perspective. Reply • Back to Top |
From Klinsmann's US Soccer Twitter Takeover: quote: quote: Don't know if that means 23 total or 23 on game day rosters. I assume it's total, as I believe you can only have 18 available for qualifiers. Reply • Back to Top |
| I think that this should thread should be stickied and titled as the official WCQ discussion thread. If not, one should be made. Reply • Back to Top |
quote: Perhaps after the initial roster release on 5/15? Reply • Back to Top |
quote: Fair enough. I feel like someone needs to make a thread with the first post containing schedule, roster, ect. With discussion following. Of course we can accomplish this through chaos, but I'd appreciate some order. Reply • Back to Top |
