What are the chances of the USMNT landing Balogun?

Seen he just signed a long-term deal with Arsenal.

Small but possible.

One of the reasons Musah chose to commit to us was his close relationship with Balogun, so I like our chances.

Can't wait to see Musah assisting Balogun in a tight game in San Pedro Sula during the Hex.
Will be bizarro world for me as a Honduran-American who fookin loves that shite club Arsenal

Based on what?
No one in this thread has an idea what the chances are.

Did you immigrate or were you born here?
My wife is originally from El Progreso in Yoro.

I would have felt better about our chances if he had left arsenal.

I don't see how you can say the chances are anything besides small. They aren't zero, but I'd definitely put them below 50%.

I would factor in his relationship with Musah and call it 50/50.
While he has been to more England youth camps, he hasn't really played that many more matches wearing the England crest than he has the USMNT one.

quote:He's been in at least 6 camps with England compared to one of ours. He accepted at least 1 more camp with England (U19s) but had to pull out due injury. He played in 4 games with us over one camp. That's still a lot more time involved in the English camp.

I'm trying to find it but I can't remember where it was. I kinda feel like someone here posted it when we were recruiting Musah, but I do know I read it and didn't imagine it.

Musah fricking captained the England U-18's.

This means literally nothing.
If anything, it further proves that youth camps don't mean that much considering Musah was never in the US youth camp and still chose us.
Be better at formulating arguments, because you kind of suck at it.

Aren’t we both rooting for Balogun to join USMNT?
