Bobby Wood played today for 1860 Munichs full team. If his injury problems are behind him look for him to really make a difference for 1860 the rest of the season.

Very good forward that can play all of the forward positions in a 4-3-3. Wouldn't be surprised to see him called up for the Gold cup team if he continues to get serious minutes for 1860.

Potential Gold Cup team FWDS: Agudelo, Wood, Bruin, Sapong, Cooper, Wondo.

I'm just happy he has a career

Before his injuries in 2010, I thought he was ridiculously talented - beyond Agudelo, Gatt, or Gyau. He was awesome

His career threatening injuries came from pushing himself to play hurt (against doctor's advice) to play for the US U20 team. I don't know how good he can be anymore after the injuries but I hope for the best

US fans should love Bobby Wood. He should be everyone's favorite. He gave it all for the team

Cool! That's great to hear. Last I heard, he was on the U21 side to rehab. I reckon his progress impressed more than a few people to give him first team playing time. Nice.

Very cool news to see him back playing and I have to echo Bshredder in saying everyone should be rooting for him, he really was a great player who put it all on the line.

Lets hope he can keep making the bench. Good to see he is back from injuries.

Bobby Wood started today for 1860 and looked solid.

The great comeback continues.

Good to hear he made a good impression. What knee injuries did he have? ACL?

Good to hear. I really hope he can get back to his best. It would be such a huge boon for the USMNT going forward.

Scored a nice goal today - blasted one over the keeper who was slightly off his line. Looks as if he's coming back into form, little by little.

Toffee Fan....for the moment

What a good story! Never have watched this kid play, but I remember Brian was always very high on him. If you had to describe his style of play who would you compare him too?

Goal for Boby Wood today. I am telling you this kid is special, and now that he is fully healthy fully expect him to conitnue to light things up for 1860. USMNT call-up won't be to far away either.

Wood is very quick, athletic, and has exceptional skill on the ball. Who does he remind me of? Hmm, he is a Donovan type of player but more athletic and stronger.

I know the 2013 Gold Cup counts for little, but is anyone else excited to see some really young and new fresh faces at the tourny such as a Bobby Wood.

Great looking burst of pace and blast from outside the box, very cool for him to get a goal and get back to first team minutes.

I'd love to see a U-23 type Gold cup roster... see what these kids can do.

Random question for Bshredder: Do you think their is a chance that Bobby gets called in to the USMNT for the Gold Cup if he continues to get playing time?

I think BW will make the Gold Cup roster if he continues to play, stays healthy and produce with 1860.
