Here's a bonus unrelated GIF that I found when looking for the Kljestan GIFs:

I'd argue that Zusi is just as good as Feilhaber and Kljestan. Davis is better at corners than all 3. :-P

Brek Shea should've been in over Chandler's garbage arse

But different situations. RB you can say it's firmly Yedlin and Cameron. LB is still a mystery

No. Altidore is way better than Zardes

Whoever downvoted this is obviously ignoring the fact that at Zardes' age Jozy was playing in his second World Cup. Jozy is also our third leading scorer all time behind Clint and Landon. They are very different players and the only true similarity I see between the two is that they are both black.

I don't get the push behind Kljestan. He doesn't have the performances that Feilhaber had last year to deserve all this anger at his exclusion.

It's not so much anger at his exclusion as it is annoyance that he is ignored while Mix, who has been worse over the past two years, continues to get called up. Kljestan is clearly the better option at this point. Also, the last time Jurgen called up Kljestan he played him out wide on the left

Yep. Zardes averages 1 goal every 7.666 games for the USMNT. Altidore averages 1 goal every 2.71 games. Also, Jozy is only 2 YEARS older than Zardes. Jozy is SO much better than Zardes. Completely different leagues.

2 of Zardes's 3 goals have come against Cuba and St. Vincent.

I'm actually having a hard time thinking of anything Zardes does better than Altidore. Gyasi's faster, but Jozy has a better touch, better passing, better shot, better finishing, better in the air, stronger, etc.

Zardes is awful. His best plays are accidents. He's a more useless less talented version of Raheem Sterling.

Even comparing to Raheem is wrong.

He's like a Chelsea version of Fernando Torres.

I know he has played for us in the past. I dont remember much either way. Seems like so long ago with all the pairings at CB for the USMNT.


But the dude plays in Germany.. I dont know much about Hertha other than they having a good season LOL

Chandler doesn't play for Hertha.

Have you confused Chandler with Brooks?

Brooks is a good CB. Chandler is a shitty RB.

He rides the pine for Frankfurt who are on the brink of getting relegated.

Who was the poster who got all butt hurt about people shitting on Chandler before the WC. His melt was hilarious.
