He has already stated that he doesn't want to play for Ireland.

I just looked down at the badge on my USA jersey before opening this thread, and I thought, someone Irish in a USA jersey, and then I thought that Bruce should cap Ronnie O'Brien. He would add another dimension to an already a very talented midfield. For next years World Cup, imagine the possibilities: Ronnie, Clint Dempsey, Chris Armas, Claudio Reyna, Damarcus Beasley, Kerry Zavagnin, Steve Ralston, Brad Davis, John O'Brien and Clint Mathis. I think Ronnie playing for the US should be considered a serious possibility.

He's cap-tied to Ireland. He played in a FIFA-sanctioned youth event. This subject comes up every couple of weeks/months. Someone else will soon provide a link with the details, I'm sure.

Ricketts= BigSoccer captie legend.

His father lives in New York, and so a few years back he made public statements about wanting to play for the U.S. in what many saw as a ploy to gain attention for the England team.

It didn't work.

He has no claim for U.S. citizen status.


But it's funny--BigSoccer BS.

I think he was eligible for Jamaica. But I am almost sure that when he was on fire for Bolton that he got capped for England, but if I'm right he only got one cap.
