ESPNFC on Donovan

I have a lot of confidence in Zusi putting in a shift and like the idea of a fresh Landy getting 20 or 30 late game minutes to make some shite happen.

Donovan could kill a tired defense late. He's gonna score a 20 minute hat trick against Ghana.

I have a feeling we take care of Ghana 2 or 3 nil. The last time I saw them play (can't remember who it was against). Japan maybe, I don't know. They didn't look like they were in any kind of rhythm.

I guess the same could be said for us too in some recent games though.

I would be surprised and annoyed if Landon was given a super sub role for the World Cup. He's still perfectly capable of being an integral part of the team. I wouldn't read into his statements. Landon is honest as shite and will say, or do, what every other player is thinking.

This... He has higher soccer IQ than anyone on the team. Well, Bradley is in that discussion, too.

If he needs to play the first 70 then be subbed, I'd rather that then him only playing the final 20. Donovan is an important player to our side and I really hope his inability to give 100% in practice doesn't hurt him. Allen Iverson stuff right here...
