I hope Bruce gives him a look in the upcoming friendlies after we qualify. Maybe a January camp invite.
Assuming we qualify tomorrow, I'd like for him to be called up in November.

Why have we not seen Danny Williams get a call up as a potential Jermaine replacement?

Lack of regular playing time/injury. He's only started one game this season.

If we qualify, I hope we use November as a euro-based camp.

i hope bruce gives A LOT of call ups to younger guys that have been totally overlooked in this qualifying campaign. it's hard to fault bruce for not taking a chance given where we were when he took over, and how tight everything has been, but there have to be better options to the zusi's, besler's, omar g.'s, beasley's, mccarty's, etc.

but knock on wood...we aren't through yet.

My point is that Bradley has been doing this for years now...there are moments he is controlling and being a great holding mid, there are other times he has just ridiculously careless turnovers that lead to very good chances. Not to hold it against him, but when you do that against teams not named Panama or Honduras, you will get wrecked..For example, Portugal in the World Cup.


This will fall on deaf ears. Most people here have a hard on for Bradley.

I wish we had 1 more person up top that was as explosive as Pulisic. Wood is ok but he just seems to have trouble finishing the ball. He gets in position great but can't put the ball in the net. It's incredibly frustrating to watch. I hope this Sargent kid continues to get better, as he looks like he is showing some great potential at being that person.

Probably because there's no other CM in our pool that is close to being in his league.

Yeah it would be nice to have another near World-class 19 year old that we can run our attack through.

Do you realize how ridiculous you sound by critiquing Bradley in one breath and then follow up by lamenting how we don't have a 2nd child-prodigy?

Yeah. And that is not a good thing.

And here comes broski with his full on Bradley erection. Stop twisting my words. I didn't say I want another child prodigy. Just someone who at least plays with the same intensity.

Pulisic actually needs to be less intense sometimes.

Huh? I was pretty much done with him after Argentina... sorry that I can judge a player's performance without bias.
