And have 11 months of pride jerseys with just 1 month of regular numbers!

I don't think it's a fire take at all. He's 31. He's not going to play in the next World Cup, He's not the type of player who would play a bit role in the transition. Bring in the next generation and let guys step up their leadership now rather than a year or two before the next World Cup. Better to build the team around those will be playing in the future.

Dempsey has announced his retirement. Finishes level with Donovan on USMNT goals with 57 (less PKs)

Bradley is as overrated as DV7 thinks Reyna is

Shit, I can't figure out how to embed. Twitter thread from @TheOffsideRules on Deuce.

Dempsey probably my fav US player of all time, along with the oft-injured John O'Brien. He had skill and passion and an edge to him that made him a great example of what we could use more of in US players.

Bradley haters are lame

Bradley haters are lame

He was good for a while. He’s been straight garbage for a long time now

 

[Screamindemon3]

Okay cool?

Deuce is the GOAT

LOVE THAT MAN

Adios my dude

Fun trip down memory lane with some of Clint's best goals. He scored so many big ones for the US (I don't agree the first goal against Ghana was bigger than the second, but...) that you forget some of the big ones he scored in the EPL.

That goal against Juve.

They're saying it's a "muscle injury."

 

[Screamindemon3]

Meh, whatever.

24 man roster for the upcoming friendlies:

GOALKEEPERS (3): Alex Bono (Toronto FC/CAN; 1/0), Ethan Horvath (Club Brugge/BEL; 2/0), Zack Steffen (Columbus Crew SC; 3/0)

DEFENDERS (9): John Brooks (Wolfsburg/GER; 33/3), Cameron Carter-Vickers (Swansea City/WAL; 4/0), Eric Lichaj (Hull City/ENG; 15/1), Aaron Long (New York Red Bulls), Matt Miazga (Nantes/FRA; 7/1), Shaq Moore (Reus Deportiu/ESP; 2/0), Tim Parker (New York Red Bulls; 2/0), Antonee Robinson (Wigan Athletic/ENG; 2/0), DeAndre Yedlin (Newcastle United/ENG; 52/0)

MIDFIELDERS (10): Kellyn Acosta (Colorado Rapids; 17/1), Tyler Adams (New York Red Bulls; 5/0), Paul Arriola (D.C. United; 16/2), Marky Delgado (Toronto FC/CAN; 1/0)^, Julian Green (Greuther Fürth/GER; 10/4), Sebastian Lletget (LA Galaxy; 3/1), Weston McKennie (Schalke/GER; 4/1), Cristian Roldan (Seattle Sounders FC; 3/0), Wil Trapp (Columbus Crew SC; 6/0), Tim Weah (Paris Saint-Germain; 3/1)

FORWARDS (3): Andrija Novakovich (Fortuna Sittard/NED; 2/0), Bobby Wood (Hannover 96/GER; 39/12), Gyasi Zardes (37/6; Columbus Crew SC)

Id like to see something like:

Steffen
Yedlin, Brooks, Miazga, Robinson/Lichaj
McKennie, Adams
Arriola?, Lletget, Weah
Wood

Not necessarily that formation

 

[Screamindemon3]

Pulisic isn't committed to the USMNT moving forward wow wow wowwww!!!!!

 

[BillBrasky]

Brazil’s first, right? I imagine we’ll see something similar to the 5-3-2 that we used to STIFFLE the French back in June.

 

[BillBrasky]

*stifle

Hopefully we’ll play a more attack lineup against Mehico
