That's a good question, but again part of that was Jurgen deciding not to call up Chandler until he showed more devotion and resolve.

No shite. European truck drivers would feel like cold hearted arse wipes in comparison. I´ve never seen such concern about the NT selection.

My problem with the decision is only a handful of players have ever been to 4 World Cups. Having Donovan as one of the 23, not an 11 starter really could have been beneficial to some of the first timers. We don't know the future, we all just have to wait and see.

I really don't actively look to keep bringing this topic up but I just saw this tweet from ESPNFC

Even if he was playing 10x worse I still would have had him on there for the experience he brings.

Does he not realize how stupid that quote makes him look, especially if we get bounced in the group?
