Retired US Soccer / World Cup Thread (RIP)

Time to get Ream'ed!

Rough news for the #USMNT as Wolfsburg director Olaf Rebbe told the media today John Brooks is out 3 months with pulled thigh tendon
 
Basically Pulisic on the back line

@BrianSciaretta: With Brooks out 3 months, this could be a huge opportunity for Tim Ream who is in great form right now for Fulham. #USMNT
 
PuliSICK assist! PEA with the finish. Dortmund up 3-0 now at Wolfsburg. Impressive.

@SportsCenter: Wayne Rooney, England's all-time top scorer, has announced his immediate retirement from international football.
 
WAZZA retiring from international football after being called back in by Southgate. He wants to concentrate all his energies on winning Everton trophies.

I love him more everyday. Gonna pull the trigger on his 17/18 jersey, even though it has dumb Sport Pesa on it
 
Andre Blake is back playing for Philadelphia. Finger is still not healed so he needs to wear a special glove but good to know he is back playing.
 
Only scenario where we clinch this week:

- 2 wins vs. CR and HON
- Mexico win vs PAN
- T&T draw vs HON
- T&T win at PAN

Good roster, no surprises. If all we have to bitch about are the 3rd GK and 5th FWD then Bruce did his job there
