Sad but we've seen the last of Bocanegra and Onyewu in USMNT jerseys. And rightfully so.

Guys I think I am in love with Diskerud. Is he the playmaker we need but don't deserve right now? I remember watching a cheeky chip of his into the box for an assist in the gold cup and being really happy about it. Plus he is a qt :3

Agudelo officially signed with Stoke today. Will have to be immediately loaned out because of those work permit issues. Will be a six month loan.

EDIT: Twellman is reporting his loan will be either to Spain, Holland, or Belgium.

He's headed to FC Utrecht in Holland until the end of the Eredivisie season.

Quote from: Jurgen Klinsmann

I'm pretty sure we are going to make it through to the [knockout] round. Nothing will be laid out perfectly. Nothing [in Brazil] will be kind of the German way of 2006 where everything was on time and ironed out. There will be delays and logistical challenges with the hotels, fields, stadiums or whatever.

What a boss.

From what I've heard, the members of the Jan camp have had two scrimmages against Sao Paulo FC. They lost the first sometime last week 2-1 and won the second last night 2-1.

“@SoccerInsider: #usmnt update: Chris Klute, Shane O'Neill, Chance Myers, Seth Sinovic, Tally Hall return to clubs. Michael Parkhurst joins squad.”

:( looks like Chance and Seth didn't make the impression I was hoping for.

sunny_cat · « **Reply #2043 on:** January 24, 2014, 03:51:20 PM »

Now we wait to see if Chance gets re-signed.

“@AndyEdMLS: Gedion Zelalem, the 16-year-old American-German-Ethiopian midfield wonderkid, has just come on to make his first-team debut for Arsenal.”

What youth team(s) did he play for.

sunny_cat · « **Reply #2045 on:** January 24, 2014, 04:56:28 PM »

Idk that he's played for any.

I figure it's like Januzaj and no one really has an advantage.
