U.S. Men’s National Team head coach Jurgen Klinsmann has named an initial squad of 16 players that will begin reporting today to the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Orlando, Florida. The group is mostly built up with players that are foreign-based players who have completed their seasons. As many as 13 additions will…[continue reading]

On a recent Twitter Q&A, US National Team keeper Tim Howard gave a rather candid response about playing in Major League Soccer again some day.  “Oh, one hundred percent. If all things were to work themselves out I would really, really like to come back and play a few years in MLS. A lot of…[continue reading]

It is a dawn of a new day for the US Men’s National Team. Jurgen Klinsmann’s first game as the US coach is a big one, against arch-rival Mexico. There is no way of getting around it, this one will be anything but friendly. Throw away the result a few weeks ago in the Gold…[continue reading]

We’ll know on Monday who Bob Bradley picks for the US National team for this summer’s Gold Cup and for the upcoming friendly against Spain. I figured today would be as good of a day as ever to throw out my 23-man roster that I think Bradley could select come Monday. As we know this…[continue reading]

The 2010 FIFA World Cup may still be going on but as far as I am concerned its now time to already begin looking towards the 2014 Cup in Brazil. Getting out of the tournament early is never fun but at least it does give you a couple weeks up on the competition to get…[continue reading]

Do we chalk this loss yesterday to Holland as a bad thing. Uh, yes and no. Yes because its a loss and one that showed us exactly where we stand. No because it did help US manager Bob Bradley out in figuring out who exactly he needs to take with him to South Africa. I…[continue reading]

I won’t go too into the match just yet, I have a plan on re-watching some of it later on today but I did want to give my initial player ratings from this afternoon’s 2-1 loss to the Dutch in Amsterdam. WVH USMNT Player Ratings: Tim Howard – 7 Jonathan Spector – 5 Carlos Bocanegra…[continue reading]

Honestly I need to amp up my USMNT cover on here. I’ll admit I don’t get to see every game like I would like and I honestly nearly forgot the El Salvador game last week. In fact I didn’t even get to watch all of it but what I did see what the final 20…[continue reading]
