Maybe Altidore, who will be in his early 30s.


So who plays in Bradley and Altidore spots?

Probably Adams and Sargent. Maybe Trapp. But I’m not counting Altidore out for 2022. Bradley is more of a question mark due to his age.

You still put stock into what Sarachan thinks?


He had no problem playing other young players.

And surely Gregg has taken a look at him since he's started. I'd find it hard to believe that he hasn't.

Not really.

I'm not a Zardes fan, but give me Zardes all day over him.

The more and more I read all these comments and look at the list it seems like we're screwed.

Basically all of their good players have backed out of this tournament.

I defer to your impeccable judgment on all things gold cup.

Teams are calling up their strongest teams possible. Mexico has had some injuries and also some players decline for personal reasons, like Vela.

Jesus Corona. He made our defense look silly af the last time we played him.

Just looked at Mexico's roster, and it's damn strong. Minus a few absentees that's their A team.

Lozano and Tecatito won't be there either.

I mean, other than Brooks and Yedlin, we're bringing our A-squad.

Miles Robinson has definitely deserved a call up.

Steffen will probably start every game just to help get his work permit.

And also because he's our best GK.

If we win the first two games, I think we would often switch keepers for the 3rd group stage game.

I saw the work permit thing mentioned somewhere else. Can you (or anyone) explain what exactly that means?
