i wasnt like wow this dude is good.

the only player i watched and had that reaction too today was legitimately landon donovan. it's pretty clear he is better than the rest of the team.

I'm glad he's playing and playing well, but it's going to be interesting to see how he fits back into the full national side. He's the class of this team, but he's going to have to figure out how to be somewhat of a role player by next summer.

I first watched this game on DVR after reading through this thread, and the only thing that was as bad as it seemed was Shea's play. Everybody else was at least decent. Not a glorious day, but nothing to be worried about.

I want to see Orozco against some decent attacking competition. I like that he gets forward and looks to score goals.

Castillo was impressive in 2nd half and in winning the penalty.

i agree but disagree. i think he is slated to be a top 4 player next summer like he should be. landon, bradley, dempsey, and jozy are our best players to me and i think that will remain the same a year from now.

basically, im just disagreeing on landon being a role player/your definition of role player. i have him firmly in our first tier and i have for 12 years. i love him unconditionally though, so there's that.
