No more Kljestan, Bornstein and Findley. They simply aren't good enough. Buddle and Gomez deserve another chance.

Call up Adu and keep him with the team. Jones and Castillo should be with the side as well. Start calling up good youngsters who are performing like Brek Shea and that Ibrahim kid from Toronto, giving them a decent run and preparing them for the future. In another couple of years call up Luis Gil so we don't lose him to Mexico.

Spector - Gonzalez - Goodson - Castillo

Holden - Jones - Torres - Shea

    Also, Naja from DC United refused a Hondoran call up last week. He also has US citizenship.

    There wasn't anything good about that match. If it wasn't for the post, we would have ended up losing 5-0 like we did to Mexico in the Gold Cup.

    These sort of matches is what Bob Bradley will be remembered for.

    Quite clearly, we are light years away from matching a Brazil, which if it wasn't obvious before it should be now.

    We definitely need a new manager. It's basically back to square one for us.

    I like Bradley, but he should be coaching a mid level club somewhere, not a top 20 international side.

    The US will make it's big step forward when it hires a tactician from the core western European countries like a Guus Hiddink.

    Hiddink is wrapped up with the Turks, I asked him to come coach us when he was in New York but he didn't seem too interested.

    We need a European manager, certainly.

    The guys over at Big Soccer are just as pissed as I am.

    Yea, I know Hiddink is with the Turks and he will take them deep into the Euros, but if the situation is right with the US and Hiddink, maybe we can get him to come here and lead us to Brazil.

    Danny Szetela doesn't seem to be doing too good. Reading his FB statuses, it seems like the boy is depressed. Could have to do with his footballing.

    That's not good.

    WTF, I still can't understand why a player like Adu, someone who has shown so much at the younger level, doesn't get a chance with a club.


    I mean what the FUCK? He has the talent. He was showing it at age 12 against us minions. Why can't he get some time somewhere?

    So frustrating, so sad.
