http://www.soccerbyives.net/soccer_by_ives/2008/02/twellman-injure.html Gonna miss the Mexico game with a "groin strain". Shame EDIT: Note...Ives' site currently says a hammy injury, but he links you to the MNT blog which says it is a groin injury. I think the bloggers at camp know better so that's why I put groin injury as the title
Re: Twellman Out With Hammy Injury Notice this means no TT, EJ, or Chingy vs. Mexico. I think a bunch of people's dreams came true...
Re: Twellman Out With Hammy Injury I am never happy that someone is injured but I am happy that "other" forwards will play against Mexico.
Re: Twellman Out With Hammy Injury That's all fine and dandy, but who's going to pair with him up top? He's not a lone forward. It'll be interesting to see if Bradley snags anyone else off the U-23 squad, or if he even takes Jozi. I'm not convinced Jozi will play. This could easily be a 4-6-0 formation with Bradley being as stubborn as he is. He's nothing more than Arena with a different set of pet players. We all see how Arena has been gobbled up as a coach how he was perceived in the soccer world. Bradley is simply Bruce in a different guise. Both are utter and total shite.
Re: Twellman Out With Hammy Injury Eventually, maybe a few more of you will realize that sentence describes every coach. (I'm assuming you're just talking about player selection, because it's a ridiculous statement to make tactically.)
Re: Twellman Out With Hammy Injury Yep, a blessing in disguise if ever there was one. Not that you needed to convince most of us of that. That said, I just can't bring myself to wish injury on Twellman, but... I can't say that I'm all that disappointed, either. Now Altidore... I'm still mixed on the wisdom of placing too much on a young forward just yet, I'd rather he come along at an even pace. But if we have to, and if it pans out...
Re: Twellman Out With Hammy Injury Donovan....Bradley...Clark....???? ..................Adu............... ................Altidore............ I Wish
Re: Twellman Out With Hammy Injury or they are about to find out why TT, EJ, & Chingy have been tops of our striker pool. just sayin'.....
There is a god! Jozy as the striker with Adu as a withdrawn forward would be interesting, but won't happen I feel.
It's going to be Altidore and Donovan up top I can feel it. Too bad for Twellman, but I think this was probably the best thing that could happen for him. I don't see him having a good game against a team like Mexico. The guy that really got the shaft this camp was Cooper. What a wasted opportunity.
