Re: USA vs Ecuador 10-11-11

I guess not. Hamid left though.

 

Re: USA vs Ecuador 10-11-11

Very cool! Thanks for the post - it was worth reading for the look at his position chart alone.

Re: USA vs Ecuador 10-11-11

It's time to win a game by more than 1 goal. We've only done it once all year.

That strawman will never be the same after what you did to him....

lineup v. Ecuador: Howard; Cherundolo, Onyewu, Bocanegra (c), Chandler; Beckerman; Williams, Edu, Shea; Dempsey, Altidore

 

Re: USA vs Ecuador 10-11-11

Rueda (Ecuador coach) announced the players of Liga Deportiva Universitaria de Quito (LDUQ) won't take part in the friendly versus USA, due to the Copa Sudamericana game the LDUQ plays against Independiente de Avellaneda in the Round of 16, tomorrow.

So Ecuador won't have keeper Alexander Domínguez, nor the defenders Geovanny Caicedo and Diego Calderón. Also, defensive mid Alex Bolaños won't be part of the game, due to visa problems.

 

Re: USA vs Ecuador 10-11-11

same lineup as last time, with Gooch in for Orozco

Let's go boys.

 

Re: USA vs Ecuador 10-11-11

Thought Bradley would get the start over Edu, but yeah, this is pretty much the expected.

 

Re: USA vs Ecuador 10-11-11

Then you will be disappointed because we are not playing El Salvador

 

Re: USA vs Ecuador 10-11-11

Tonight's #USMNT subs: Rimando, Spector, Ream, Bradley, Beasley, Buddle, Agudelo

 

Re: USA vs Ecuador 10-11-11

I'm kind of unhappy that Klinsi didn't change up the lineup more. I gues he's really serous about his "core players."

Also, Beckerman?
