jermaine jones to skc rumors jfc

http://www.espnfc.com/united-states/story/2060791/nasl-minnesota-united-winger-miguel-ibarra-to-get-usmnt-call-upsources-say

interesting imo, both because I sorta follow MN and the guy's a pretty good player, and I like the willingness to call up ppl from all over

Hamid; F. Johnson, Cameron, Besler, Chandler; Beckerman; Bedoya, Diskerud, Morales; Wondolowski, Altidore.

How Wondo gets any time is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

not showing this on regular irish tv, will have to watch highlights later. ipswich's david mcgoldrick and derby county's cyrus christie making their debuts tonight.

US has been terrible except for the last 10 minutes of the first half.

usa! usa!

Very embarrassing against a 2nd-choice Ireland team, but their guys went for it and ours stood still.

January camp roster for games against Chile and Panama

GOALKEEPERS (4): Alex Bono (unattached), Sean Johnson (Chicago Fire), Jon Kempin (Sporting Kansas City), Nick Rimando (Real Salt Lake)

DEFENDERS (8): Matt Besler (Sporting Kansas City), Steve Birnbaum (D.C. United), Christian Dean (Vancouver Whitecaps FC), Brad Evans (Seattle Sounders FC), Jermaine Jones (New England Revolution), Perry Kitchen (D.C. United), Shane O’Neill (Colorado Rapids), Oscar Sorto (LA Galaxy)

MIDFIELDERS (10): Michael Bradley (Toronto FC), Mix Diskerud (out of contract), Dennis Flores (Club Leon), Luis Gil (Real Salt Lake), Miguel Ibarra (Minnesota United FC), Lee Nguyen (New England Revolution), Marc Pelosi (Liverpool FC), Dillon Serna (Colorado Rapids), Brek Shea (Orlando City SC), Wil Trapp (Columbus Crew SC)

FORWARDS (6): Tesho Akindele (FC Dallas), Clint Dempsey (Seattle Sounders FC), Julio Morales (Tepic), Chris Wondolowski (San Jose Earthquakes), Bobby Wood (1860 Munich), Gyasi Zardes (LA Galaxy)

Never heard of a handful of these dudes, but it sounds like they're working on getting the Olympic qualifying squad worked in.

That Herrera/Wynalda interview had so much potential.

!

ikr

!!

ikr?!

Michael Bradley is a master dribbler now apparently.

can't believe we are #1 in the world now

Now that we have mastered soccer should we do cricket or rugby next?

Goodass game

Whole lot of that shit out there

But still that dummy/goal combo was so great

granted its just a friendly but Klinsmann really needs to show something tonight. esp w/ no Bradley or Dempsey (an exercise that'll probably be good for em).

ya not sure why but this feels like a higher pressure friendly

MLS talking heads have certainly been pressuring him, which is so totally lol

better on attack than they've been so far, Jozy still with the touch of an elephant.

still some lapses in their own third tho.

nope, same ole USMNT

rocket from Jermaine Jones reminiscent of his goal against Portugal in 2014 WC (only this one was saved).

John Brooks takes a sitter that needs to be jsut tapped in and skies it into the fifth row.

*throws up hands*

they're starting to wake up

1-1.

US looking better on attack, pressing high, much better than I've seen in months.

defense still mediocre as hell tho. still rely way too much on bailouts

Guzan amazing save. Diskerud is useless

GOALTidore!!!!

christ all Diskerud does is retreat from defenders and backpass

is this ref just continuing play until Peru scores again

jesus fuck

Yeah that was sad, feel bad for the players being put out in that mess. I'm generally pretty pro-Klinsmann but it made no sense, especially the continued use of Orozco who has never amounted to shit for the national team imo, not to mention Bedoya starting as a holding mid.

lmao

that's brilliant

The inclusion of Cuauhtemoc in Chicago is a nice touch, those were the days.

Donovan saying today that Klinsmann should be fired if US loses to Mexico this weekend.

I dunno if I agree with that exactly, but there are a lot of people who do.

mou might be available?

fuckin christ these idiots

ugh

looking like Bob Bradley will be taking over at Le Havre, good for him

lol idk why I'm even watching this

New crest is...pretty good. Better than the old one bit I still want the rattlesnake around soccerball one Nike dummied up a while ago.

The centennial one from last year was my favorite, but the new one's not bad.

ditto

lol
