Interesting to hear him express disappointment in Bradley's move to Toronto, but also to hear Bradley's reasoning. Basically knowing he is going to have to be our best player this summer and wanting to play for a team that makes him their focal point so he can practice that

Ukraine game, ugh.



Nothing really in that game, besides a terrible lineup and a highly motivated Ukrainian team.

Bradley's quote about wanting to be the leader really explains the Toronto FC move. He wasn't getting a fair shake at Roma with their loaded midfield, and decided to take a damn good deal in MLS. A good performance at the World Cup and a Champions League team will snag him.

Wife just ordered my USA Bradley away for Fathers Day. So pumped. By the time this series ends I won't be able to stand the excitement.

Not sure if my sarcasm meter is broken but it was clearly showing how diverse this team is, namely the German-American's in the team.

Goosebumps for the Donovan goal. Still to this day.

I just thought it kind of weird he was doing the interview in German when I've seen him speak English decently before.

I think we all get the team is diverse.

Jurgen is a total G.

Straight up saying that Sunderland's midfield blows but that it was good for Jozy to go through some S-H-I-T, how he handled the Julian Green situation, why he made Dempsey captain. Boss.

Also, Beckerman is way more likeable than I realized.

Landon's career is coming to a close and he knows that but this is his last shot to play on the stage that made him a star.

He will be ready.

Yeah I hear ya but I think he's gonna show out in training and really impress Jurgen. He seems to be very aware of the situation and how no one is bigger than the team.

I think that both Jurgen and Landon have the right mindset. Landon will be there. He will also be one of our better players. He may not be the 2002 or 2010 Landon, but he will ball.

We do but this series isn't geared towards someone who follows soccer closely

So I'm the only one annoyed by the fact some of our players can't even suck it up and speak English when participating in an US soccer documentary?

Almost positive they were told to speak German. I know all of them can speak English perfectly fine.

Being that I'm fluent in German, it excited me greatly to know they can speak both. I have the biggest hard on for team USA

1.) There is no official language in the United States.

2.) John Brooks spoke in German and English in this episode.

3.) All of the Germericans speak fluent English.

4.) Landon Donovan, Jozy Altidore, Clint Dempsey, DaMarcus Beasley and Omar Gonzalez speak at least conversational Spanish. Mix Diskerud obviously speaks Norwegian. Aron Johannsson knows Icelandic. This is a multinational team representing a multinational country.
