20 for nashville...olympic qualifying roster thread

Hey, rules are rules.

I took a chance with Gatt knowing full well there was a potential club issue.

It's a bad beat, but still a beat nonetheless.

I thank our kind overseer, Real Corona, for deciding not to impose the sanction.

 

I think it would've been whoever picked Lletget.

 

No, because Sebastian Lletget is better than f**** Michael Stephens and Porter is an idiot.

 

Hahahahahaha, I wonder who picked Lletget!

 

Coaches have named Freddy captain of the U23s for qualifying, per Brian Sciaretta.

 

I'm assuming no one has any updates from the scrimmage with the Silverbacks? Or is that today?

 

Our good friend bshredder writes on Twitter that it's Sheanon Williams, based on a report from a Union blog:

Won 3-0, brace from Shea, and a goal from Michael Stephens off a nice assist from Jared Jeffrey.

 

There is a link to highlights somewhere around here.

 

At least that shores up the defense. Williams has looked good toward the end of last year and so far this year in what little I've seen of him. He may have been good earlier last year too, I just didn't have him on my radar. Any Philly fans able to confirm?

 

He was excellent last year, and very consistent. I've thought for awhile he'd be the qualifying RB, but Porter obviously rates Sarkodie higher.

He had a rough night in Portland but I thought rebounded well against Colorado.

 

Nowak must be over the moon.

 

He's not really my favorite person in the world right now anyway.

 

I thought Williams was the most logical choice to replace Gatt.

 

Philadelphia's not really my favorite place in the world either.
