What would be the best place to find updates on USMNT injuries such as Altidore, Dempsey, Beasley?? I can look at ESPN/yahoo obviously, just wondering if there was a better place for up to date info.

Well, Twellman broke the Donovan news, and I don't suppose he got that from Jurgen. That tells me he's got an "in" with a trainer or manager on the squad.

Twellman is shockingly good at getting scoops.

I would also check out Soccer by Ives for updates. Maybe Noah Davis since he is actually in brazil, but I'm never impressed with him.

Isn't he buddy buddy with Duece? That may also be where he got the news from.

Can you change your thread title please? I thought there was news in here. As to your question I'm waiting on someone to post the news here when it's available. That's why I love TD.

No link, sorry on phone, but ESPN just flashed at the bottom of the screen that Jurgen said he is optimistic that Jozy will play Sunday vs Portugual.

I just hope it's not at the detriment of making the injury worse if he plays

I heard it was a Grade 1 one strain. Grade 3 is a tear.

TD will be a good source. It will basically immediately post anything on Twitter. One of your best bets is Taylor Twellman.

Really?

That's awesome if true.

The only statement I read from Jurgen said he wouldn't give a timeline.

And this from Jozy which made me sad.

“I was sprinting and I felt something. We’ll see what happens,” he said, via The Guardian. “I was crushed. I knew right away I couldn’t continue. It was the worst feeling.”

Really? That is huge. Wonder if he is just being cagey like an NFL coach is about injuries early in the week so Portugal has to plan for everyone.

anyone who has ever had this happened to them knows its a month before you are even jogging again.

although i guess its true he probably has access to some super alien juice that will heal him.

I feel like that would be all over twitter, but I see nothing.

Yeah. This would be trending on Twitter right now if true. I think the media is waiting to get access to the USMNT now so we should know something soon.

The bottom line said Jurgen is optimistic about Altidore playing against Portugal, but no timeline given.

I'm sure we have a German doctor on staff.
