How do we think we will stack up with this team. Much better competition and they have Dzeko on the attack. I have high hopes for this game.

it will be an interesting match-up. we should be calling in our A squad, but without a 2 or 3 guys.

Don't think we'll call in MLS guys. So no Donovan or Dempsey

Demps and Landy, maybe Gonzalez as well.

MLS season, and the game is a friendly in Europe.

No Dempsey and no Donovan potentially well my hopes just went down astronomically.

we have been fine w/o Donovan, and Dempsey disappeared in the last few USMNT games he played in. Your hopes should go back up to see Aron Johannsson, 22 year old ST/LW who just switched to USMNT from Iceland, and John Anthony Brooks, 20 old CB who could be our starter for us next summer. The thing with Brooks is he can play for either Germany or USA hopefully he plays next week and we cap tie him in September.

Why?

We got run into the ground in that game. The only two positives were the outside of the 18 wonder volleys from Bradley and Mixx.

Didn't we get outpossessed like 70/30 in that game?

I'm anxious to see the squad. We know Bobby Wood will be called in but I'm not sure if he's gonna make anyone's dick hard.

I read the story on him but don't know much about him. Is he a rising star?

This guy I know about and can't wait to see him in action.

We tied Russia 2-2 on their home field. 3 years ago that would have been a 4-1 drubbing.

When was the last time these two were on the pitch together for the US?

I kinda hope we call in at least those two and Zusi so the three of them can play together once before the upcoming qualifiers (assuming those three are our starting AMs).

But if they won't start and play most of the game then there's no reason to call em in.

We got a nice result, but def got outplayed like it was a 4-1 drubbing. Some sick saves and plenty of sloppy ruskie finishing.
