With many teams in the Gold Cup calling up "B-Teams" I think that it would be a great time for Arena to give a good look at some players who deserve another shot or should be given a shot, or even just give a line up youd think youd never see, so heres 22 players, two different line ups I'd like to see:
A TEAM: B TEAM:
Gk: Howard GK: Brown
LB: Gbandi LB: Dunivant
RB: Gibbs RB: Klein
CB: Bocanegra CB: Victorine
CB: Mastroeni CB: N. Garcia
DM: Clark DM: Mulrooney
LM: Beasley LM: Davis
CM: Martino CM: Lisi
CRM: Donovan RM: Albright
FW: Convey FW: Buddle
FW: Mathis FW: Cunningham

I know Albright seems lame as well as Victorine and Klein in the back, but Albright has been playing real well in LA and Victorine and Kleins confidence and size will be great for 2 defenders. Lisi has been playing well so why not? and Cunningham is good but just need to stop trying so hard. If Jolley was healthy it would be nice to see him and if some others get hurt then Twellman, Mapp, Gray and Kingsley would be nice to see play
Thanks and be nice

I disagree. Giving young players a shot is what the Con Cup and the endless string of friendlys are/were for.

This is the friggin Continental Championship, the 2nd most important tourney on the schedule. If the rest of the entrants chose to send a B or U23 side, their loss. They can eat a few McBride headers (He's not on your team!?!?!?).
