    Truth is, he's been our best player in Europe for a while already (except when injured).

    Which makes the whole situation even more annoying.

    Huh?

    When you look at Eintracht's spot in the table, Chandler doesn't need to move anywhere to be playing in the Champions League next year - if they can keep it up.

    It was a joke. That such performances is gonna be a boost for a move to a bigger club.

    I recall that Roma wanted to buy Chandler this summer, now it seems they came knocking again.
    http://www.bild.de/sport/fussball/eintracht-frankfurt/chandlerrom-54659424.bild.html

    but a move was blocked as Frankfurt wants all their players as they fight for a Europe position. Chandler's contract expires in Summer 2020, wonder if they would sell him this Summer. He''ll be 28 soon, which leaves him enough time for one more major move, which could explain why he seems into it. Besides it's rare to see a US player in Italy.

    It's an invite, right? The coach or Federation rep calls you and invites you to camp for a USMNT game. If you are not %100 invested mentally in being part of that, don't bother. Ido think he is our best option on the left, based on his current form. It's that investment that has been questioned. But having some fellow nats in the league whom he must respect, could raise that investment.

    What matters is if you make the team better. Chandler has the skills to do so. So he should get called in to help the team as its most talented LB. If another LB shows that he plays better for the Nats, then play that person.

    But I have not been impressed by any of these LB's we've tried. So give TC a call.

    Timmy is playing so well. I love this advanced role It’s been a perfect fit. Clearly, his play on the attacking end has been a positive but I think his play on the defensive end has seen vast improvements. He’s my YA POY, thus far. Shame we won’t be able to see this form carry over to Russia. Not that Arena would have chosen him anyway.
