Kitchen might not get any more European action this season. After drawing 0-0 in Malta, Hearts inexplicably 2-0 down at home against Birkirkara with 20 minutes left chasing 3 goals.

Hendo, you think Julian gets first team minutes this year like that tweet suggests? Kid needs to play regularly and not with the youth team

There was a goalkeeper from Atlanta that played with the U-20s last year, but he didn't stick around.

Outside of Kitchen, there is Scott Pittman, a dual international who played in the Championship for Livingston. Another who plays in the 3rd division.

Not sure why more Americans didn't play in Scotland. Last one I remember was Beasley years ago. That's all I got.

Irrelevant. We have more people in Scandinavian leagues, Egypt, and Iceland than Scotland. Those leagues aren't any better.

I'm guessing Steffen will have a shot at being the #1 Keeper.

And those people also won't be significant contributors to the us national team.

I understand your point, but we have notable players at Molde (Ethan Horvath and Joshua Gatt). No reason players can't have success in these leagues before hopefully moving to a bigger league in Europe.

I agree. But those guys are playing for some of the better teams in those leagues and playing in the champions league or Europa league. Seeing Kitchen miss out on that is disappointing. He's now playing in a league that across the board isn't as strong as MLS. But as you said it's Europe so hopefully he gets the exposure he needs to make the jump to a better league.

I wonder what is happening with Clark? He has been their #1 keeper for some time, is a vet, and seems to have the club's confidence. Perhaps his contract is up. I suppose that he could be McMathed but I would think one would only be McMathed for someone like Howard (a well known star American player).
