Yarbrough?

I don't get it. Does Klinsmann watch him play with his club team?

 

I know I don't but he's not gonna get any burn in these games as I fully expect Guzan to be playing heavy minutes to be prepared for the gold cup.

 

I see them getting hammered. The question is whether that matters to you or not.

 

He plays in mexico. He has to compete everyday for his job. He can't go to the grocery store without the fans bugging him. Blah blah blah.

 

i dont have a strong opinion on either, but you just said youd take sean johnson....

 

Disagree, if the South American bring under-strength teams.

 

When is the roster supposed to be out?. It's less than 5 days now wtf

 

does jk love trolling usmnt fans by never releasing his rosters.....?? or.....?

 

He like your avatar likes to troll us

 

Goff tweeted that he expects the 22-man roster out today at some point...

I honestly think the roster promulgation shenanigans are done for post 9/11 security reasons.

 

Random question, but is Darlington Nagbe available for a call up? Did he get citizenship with his marriage?

 

Klnsmann releases rosters after last game is played prior to the freindly because that way if somebody is injured and has to be replaced he doesn't have to take the phone calls and read the discussion. Other managers don't care because they were born with 2........um.....never mind...

 

Don't believe Nagbe can be called up till later this year.

 

I'm really not expecting any surprises on the roster lol

 

Would love to see JK call in the big 6'5" forward playing in Bulgaria.

Much rather would have him on the roster (and it's much more justifiable) than Ibarra.

 

Ibarra is also confirmed on the roster... :/

 

Ibarra is mostly about his supposed beef with the MLS. What will be interesting to see is if Ibarra is dropped once his squad officially becomes an MLS side. That will be the nail in the coffin.

 

I totally agree its just to stick it to MLS, but it's a waste of a spot.

 

It is a waste of a spot but I'm interested in seeing if it's purely on beef with the MLS or if it's just a lack of being able to judge talent. I personally think it's the latter.

 

In your opinion, which players should JK be looking at that he hasn't really given a chance?

 

Garbage squad. Surprise level: 0/10

 

USA's 22-player Roster:

Goalkeepers: Brad Guzan (Aston Villa), Nick Rimando (Real Salt Lake) and William Yarbrough (Club Leon).

Defenders: Ventura Alvarado (Club America), John Brooks (Hertha Berlin), Timmy Chandler (Eintracht Frankfurt), Brad Evans (Seattle Sounders FC), Michael Orozco (Puebla), Brek Shea (Orlando City SC) and DeAndre Yedlin (Tottenham Hotspur).

Midfielders: Kyle Beckerman (Real Salt Lake), Michael Bradley (Toronto FC), Mix Diskerud (New York City FC), Miguel Ibarra (Minnesota United), Fabian Johnson (Borussia Mönchengladbach), Jermaine Jones (New England Revolution), Alfredo Morales (Ingolstadt) and Danny Williams (Reading).

Forwards: Juan Agudelo (New England Revolution), Aron Johannsson (AZ Alkmaar), Bobby Wood (1860 Munich) and Gyasi Zardes (LA Galaxy).

 

I shouldn't be surprised, but I am. This is far worse than I thought possible.
