it is really frustrating watching Jozy struggle on the USMNT because of Jurgy. he is trying to force his style instead of putting the players in the best situation.
This.

It looked awful during the Honduras game, but I'm still confident the more practice time Jozy gets and comfortable it'll fall into place. When we play CR on the 22nd and Mex on the 26th, I think you'll see a very good USA squad because they'll have been together longer.

Joe Benny Corona has been starting and playing exceptional well as a left sided midfielder for Xolos in the Copa Libertadores. Maybe, just maybe, Klinsmann will call him and actually play him.

Possibly but the podcast I listened to yesterday Jurgy is very high on Shea right now, he's making the most of his minutes at Stoke and I bet Jurgy calls him in and starts him wide left for the Costa Rica game. Jurgy also is dead set on the Jones/Bradley combo in the midfield and said with time if they learn to play together and can grasp the concept that when one pushes forward the other holds that he would love to play without a true 6... The thought of that scares me

Twitter world is leaking that Chris Pontius and EJ are going to be called up, if true I'm excited ab CP finally getting a shot. Also, Grant Wahl said he expects Boca to be left off the upcoming rosters.

Or, they're using two really young CBs, because their season is in the shitter.

I'm sure Klinsmann will play Pontius at an appropriate position. I'm thinking CB.

Yeah Wahl also said he expects either Bradley or ........ Wait for it....... Jermaine Jones to wear the armband. Said Jurgy is really leaning towards Jones as the next US captain.

Maybe he thinks it will calm him down/make him consider his actions ramifications more?

If we are following the logic that guys who play every week are in better form then I don't really think it matters why he doesn't play

I'm going to shite myself if Bradley is not the captain. And Glass, I'll do my best to get over there for it.

Guys there are no words for how pissed off I'd be if anyone is captain other than Bradley, this is a no brainer, he's the general, he should wear the band for the next several years.

Better get yourself some depends. If I remember correctly, Jones has worn the armband before (so, has Bradley though)
