Donovan loaned to Bayern Munich

3
Bayern Munich have secured the services of Landon Donovan...at least temporarily.  Similar to teammate David Beckham's loan deal with A.C. Milan, Landon's spell with the club will begin January 1st and end in March in time for the new MLS season.  But unlike the Beckham deal, it seems like there's a possibility that the loan will [.

Germany denied Subotic bid

6
It looks like standout defender Neven Subotic is one step closer to being a US player after FIFA ruled against Germany's bid to make him one of theirs.  FIFA cited a rule that states a player can't switch to a country of which he wasn't a citizen before he took part in his first FIFA [...] Click to continue reading...

R.I.P Frankie Hejduk?

3
Back on June 13th, we released our Imposter! Frankie Hejduk article in the leadup to our first qualifier in Guatemala City.  And on August 14th, we re-released the same article (with a new forward) in reaction to his inclusion in the Havana roster.  Although I never really understood what people saw in Frankie, his presence [.

A brief reaction to USA-T&T

2
After a young team lost tonight to Trinidad & Tobago on the road, I thought our positions on youth and away qualifiers need a little clarification. Some will use this result to draw two conclusions: 1. Using young/inexperienced palyers in qualifiers is risky and is usually a bad idea; 2. This (along with Mexico's loss in [.

Roster Changes: Rolfe and Carroll in

1
US Soccer announced this morning that Bob Bradley has called in Chris Rolfe and Brian Carroll to replace two players who suffered injuries in their Sunday matches, Robbie Rogers (sore back) and Pablo Mastoeni (knee).  It's a shame I was looking forward to seeing Rogers play.  And I was about as excited to see Mastroeni play [.

Missing Persons Report: Kenny Cooper (Oct. 08)

I know Cooper's absence may have something to do with FC Dallas' match on the same night as the qualifier, but I'm gonna keep on posting this until Bradley gets it through his Ivy League head that Super Cooper deserves a call up. Click to continue reading...

USA vs. Cuba, 23-man roster announced (10/11/08)

18
The USA announced their roster for the Cuba match, to be played at RFK Stadium on 10/11/08.  With advancement to the next round close to a sure thing, Bradley has taken a few more risks (well...I'd be happy to debate anyone on how "risky" they actually are) and called in some younger players.  I, for [.
