I really hope Julian can get back on track

I think we just need to realize he likely isn't going to be the next Ronaldo.

I like Julian a lot, and I think he brings something that only Landon and Clint really brought, and that being he isn't afraid to take on defenders with skill. He's young and raw, so he isn't going to always win or anything, but that's definitely something I've think we've lacked other than a couple of guys.

He's still got time and don't think Jurgen is going to give up on him.

I still get pissed every time I read a comment on ESPN or elsewhere talking shite about him and that his goal in the World Cup was lucky.

I'm excited about Zelalem, I don't think he's a Godsend or anything, but I think he will definitely bring some flair to the team offensively. Is there any chance he'll get through that paperwork before the Gold Cup?
