The situations are not the same. Expecting commitment from the generational face of US Soccer isn't the same as trying to convince a dual citizen that has spent his whole life in Germany and plays in the Bundesliga that also played a position of need for the USMNT at the time, that he should come play for the Yanks.



I just wanted to drop in and say that, even if I don't really have a strong opinion on the matter, you were schooled in this thread.

You never even addressed the mental health aspect. He took all of about nine months away from the game and only missed 3 WC qualifiers of his own volition. Why would you not give the same benefit of the doubt to a player who was rehabbing from an ACL tear? That's a pretty fricked up view of things, if I am being honest.

Im pretty sure I covered this completely. In fact, Jurgen did so as well.

LD has "retired" from soccer only to "come back" how many times?. The USMNT isnt therapy for the those with mental disorders. If he has issues, I wish him godspeed but not on that squad.
