That was my thought. Doesn't sound too promising.

We have five players now who are captains on their respective club teams.


Also, if this is the non-MLS squad call up.. why are Rimando and Beckerman on it? they have a bye this week I suppose?

Also I wonder.. I saw an article mentioning the possibility of CJ Sapong being called up.

FORWARDS (1): Clint Dempsey (Fulham)


Have we always used him as a striker? and if so why.. he seems to be playing excellently as an attacking mid.

Wouldn't want our most important players to feel left out

After this Chandler BS, any multi-national player needs to play against Antigua and Barbuda. Johnson, Williams, Castillo, Corona, Morales.... all of them. That will permanently cap-tie them.

Save the "best 11" for the Guatemala game.

Educate me here - is Chandler still not tied into playing for us? I'm not 100% on those rules

Corona lives in San Diego, I think. Not worried about him

Cap all of the Germans and gift Castillo back to Mexico

Chandler wouldn't even come close to the actual German 23 man roster though would he? so why hold out on us?

Bring Omar's broken body and put it on the field for the first minute of the match.

Nobody is, but the answer is believed to be playing in an "official FIFA full international competition."

U-23, U-20, Olympics don't count. Friendlies (even those on official FIFA friendly dates) don't count.

Only FIFA competitions (Gold Cup, Euros, Copa America, African Cup of Nations, whatever they do in Asia, World Cup and WC qualifying matches) are "official."

That's why Chandler turning down the Gold Cup invite was a big deal last year.

Speaking of, I stole this link and put it on /r/soccer to see what they would say about it... and I know I shouldn't try to understand reddit.. but why downvote a pure information link? just one but..

Probably some furrner who doesn't want to see it

Potentially a Mexican who is just plain jelly

Mexico has to go over our country to get to him. Boyd is a priority

We need to quit letting Timmy douche on us like this. Hurting our players when on loan, using us a a way to practice more, just tell him piss off next time. We will be alright. No need to ask 3 times, he's clearly made up his mind he doesn't actually want to play here.

ETA have fun wallowing in irrelevancy for habitual bottom table Nuremberg

I'm over Chandler. He's good but not good enough to be a half- hearted participant.

I agree. You are either with us or against us.

Does AZ Alkmaar still have remaining games left in their season? (No Jozy)

Same question for Sacha Kljestan's Anderlecht.
