God they are so perfect. Someone with better knowledge of citizen law inform me: what does Dom need to do to become a citizen now that he married Syd? Could he be capped during the Gold Cup?

Well Nagbe got married 3 years ago and is still waiting on citizenship.

hmm so i'm reading up on the Nagbe story, and I am so surprised he didn't get citizenship and eligibility by now. Maybe my hopes for Dom should be placed in his kids rather than him.

just found this from last July...maybe there is a shot? idk if 2017 is still when he would become eligible or if him marrying Syd speeds that up or not.

Reading comments on mlssoccer leads me to believe we are looking at 2015 for Nagbe and 2017 for Dwyer.

Mike also says 2017.

And from Nagbe's wiki (and goes along with everything I have seen on twitter the past few months):

Quote from: wikipedia

Nagbe is a Liberian citizen and received his U.S. green card in 2012, thus making him a domestic player for MLS roster purposes. He expects to receive his U.S. citizenship in 2015
