Everything Jurgen does from here on out is to prepare for 2018. He's not even going to call up any vets the rest of the year. I think he'll take some of the guys we see in the next few friendlies and stick them with some of the more experienced guys next summer.

And the Gold Cup is a part of that.

i kind of think this as well, but i also dont. if everyone else is bringing a top squad, there is no better way to get your top team experience and time competing against teams that will be in qualifying and that are actually good. plus it is a tournament setting. yeah i think some young guys will be on the roster and get playing time, but they will be guys that are seen as projected to make the 23 in 2018, not the shite that we saw last gold cup.
