Stoke asked Cameron to skip 2015 Gold Cup.

ETA: Riseupfromtherubble beat me to it, but I have a link. The exact weekend is a bit strange though. Screw you, pal.

Is Fabian left or right footed? He took a FK last night right but I swear he's left.

Move him to right and out Garza in at LB, or put Zusi at RM and Yedlin at RB.

He's right-footed...

The story goes though that no one really knew for sure until relatively recently just because he was so good with his left.

He did play RB in Brazil with DMB on the left.

I think he's so versatile that Jurgen hasn't really been 100% sure what to do with him.

I believe he tends to play left mid for Gladbach.

I assume he thinks the combo of Chandler and Fabian at the backs has the most potential to be great, but at this point it seems like he needs to give up hope that Chandler will reach his potential.

You can't play a RB that you have to sub out at 60 minutes because he can't concentrate for 90. Even if he was good in the 60.

That's where he mostly plays for them, just as was the case for the US in 2013, but also like the US, Gladbach and Hoffenheim have used on both sides of the backline.

Good thing MLS doesn't start scrubs like Chandler.

I thought Germany had to take back Timmy Chandler since we won that friendly.

We would have only beat Guatemala 3-0 without him though!

I think it is great how we expanded our pool, especially with awesome German-Americans like Jermaine Jones and Fabian Johnson, but we have went too far with Chandler.

Outside of Brek Shea, I think he is the most frustrating player to watch that has had serious minutes with the USMNT in the post Bornstein era.

FYI I just read an article on Ives in which Klinsmann singled Chandler out for praise.

So are we to believe that Chandler is in possession of some nudes of Jurgen?

Can't figure out what his deal is. He had a very good club season last year, but it just doesn't seem to translate to the US. Maybe he's just not American enough for this team.
