Neither Twellman, Noonan, nor Dempsey were named to 17 man roster against Guatamala. It looks like Arena is playing only the guys that are on the very fringe of making the team. Could this be a good sign for these three, or am I reading too much into this? Twellman and Dempsey have looked great in the last 3 games they have played for Arena, and Noonan has been pretty solid. Though I think Noonan might be a long stretch to make the team, Dempsey and Twellman look to have impressed Arena. I'm wondering if he isn't playing them because he knows what he is going to get from them, and is already considering them for the roster. I could be reading too much into this, but to me it seems interesting that they have played so well and at the ending of camp they aren't even named to the roster.
