Probably premature, and I'm not sure if you're being serious or not, but I would prefer Mullins over Wondo. Maybe that's my Louisiana homerism at play though.

I wouldn't mind that at all regardless of whatever young striker we brought in. We know Wondo. What are you hoping to find out about him here. Give someone else a shot.

Maybe we'll have another Sacha Kljestan-case on our hands, where this player comes in due to an injury in camp and just balls out.

Sounds like we aren't bringing in anyone else.

I don't think it's weird. At this point, I just don't see any reason to call up Wondo. Mullins might flop for USMNT, but maybe he wouldn't. We know what we're going to get with Wondo. Time to try new options, guys with a bright future.

Looking forward to seeing how these young goalies perform. Don't understand the point of calling up some older players for Friendlies when we know what they bring(for the most part), and they will be 2 years older for WC. How can it help us in non-friendly games, besides chemistry?(Wondo 33, Kljestan 31, bradley 29, Bedoya 29) Although I like a lot of them how much do they bring to next World Cup. Will they still be factors in two years?

Average age of this lineup 25

Average age of WC squads

Is chemistry a bad thing? You bring in a few vets to show the young guys the ropes, help teach them, help the practices go smoothly, provide some leadership during the games, etc. You don't want a team that has 10 total caps to their name.

I know chemistry is a good thing, that is why i said "besides" chemistry. I was trying to get some insight on other positives, I know there must be some. Just tired of thinking with school going on right now. Experience of young guys and seeing what unproven and unknown talent can do are upsides to bringing in other players besides 4 I mentioned. Just would like to hear thoughts from both sides on pros and cons.
