I feel bad for Wondo. He's a classy dude that got the yips at the wrong time.
He actually played quite well in his limited time during the World Cup. Wondo basically proved that Jürgen was too conservative tactically. We could have shifted Clint to the wings put Wondo up top, and used Diskerud or Green more effectively as subs.
Instead, Diskerud never saw the field because of the formation change. Wondo will be remembered for his miss. Bradley was put in a lose-lose situation.
And worst of all, Brad Davis played 45 minutes at the World Cup.

Still have yet to here a sane reason for this, let alone his inclusion into the 23.
Ah well...

His lack of speed and power didn't help his case either. The teams we played weren't great match ups for Mix. Athleticism isn't his game. That's what we lost when Jozy got hurt. We didn't have anyone capable of coming in and doing what Jozy does. And I know they don't play the same position. I'm speaking in general here. I'm afraid Mix would have gotten swallowed up by the bigger, stronger midfields/defenses from basically every team we played, except probably Portugal.

58 minutes. Jurgen left Brad Davis in after halftime. That was pretty mind blowing.
I was shocked how much he lagged behind everyone else in the game. He provided less cover than maybe any midfielder I have ever seen.
Thank god we switched wings or Boetang could have created 50+ chances that game.

1. You're completely right about Jurgen handcuffing the team offensively with Dempsey up top and Bradley in the playmaking role. Our offense came alive when Wondo came in as a target forward.
2. Wondo was really good other than going 0/1 from the field.
