If you've read any of my posts you know I'm anti beckerman, wondo, Williams I also never called you a journalist just saying the guy who posted that I can't take seriously if he can't even follow his own criteria. I love mix and corona but to say they are top 10-12 us players at this point is ridiculous.
Ok heres a question. From what you've seen from the USMNT of late, how can you say they are not? Are you one of the excuse rich fans who want to blame heat, grass, two play in germany? We have not looked good at ALL under JK. You what you wanna look at the Scotland game? Yea we looked good but 1. its scotland, and 2. it was a friendly. Ok we won vs italy and mex....again we looked HORRIBLE, and we played horrible v russia until when friiend? Mix came in juan came in, you dont know if they are 10-12 better then I do. So again how do you know they are not that good? Your a fan of the Name of a player only. How are you different from Bob Bradley and JK? YOu will take a player simply by his name, who your comfortable with.

Alcharod, I think you need to respect other peoples opinions. Sounds like you're having a bad day... :'(

Again take a look at my previous posts. Ive been calling for Brooks over Gozalez/Boca/Besler, Corona or Mixx to start in the middle, and Shawn Parker to start on the wing (or Boyd). Id love to see those guys but if your making a list of the top 30 players today you cant include them. Mixx got no real offers outside Norway and maybe low level russia. Portland didnt even rate him enough to give him a DP spot. No Dutch team came calling for him. Same with Boyd and Agudelo. Where were the teams lining up to sign those guys? Again I think they should get a shot with us, but I don't think you can say your making a list based on club level/performance, and national team performance and then chose guys who have struggled at the club level, and havent played for the national team ahead of those thriving at their club and getting minutes with USMNT. If the author wanted to make a list of the 30 players he thinks could help national team the most that should be what he said in the beginning

Again how do you know? You solely looking at club time thats it. What makes you want to see Brooks over those three? It aint his club, its his SKILLS AT THE CLUB. You are no different than JK, club time means exactly what for the USMNT? Since JK has come into leadership, JK has made a strong point that Club time overseas will mean just about eveything. So what does that say? We have gone backwards since he has taken over. The much hated BOB BRADLEY is now wanted back by many. He's said it himself to dempsey..."you play for spurs...so f'n what"

Why are trying to hash on my words first off lol? Where do you see me saying anything is correct in my last statement? I start off with A QUESTION then talk about things that ACTUALLY HAVE HAPPENED. Bro i'm done with ya clearly your to stupid to carry a convo, at least with Msan we can go back and forth with facts but different opinions. You will fade away you can keep writing if you like.

my 2 cents
1) C Dempsey- starting 2 turn it on
2) T Howard- nice reaction to that bicycle kick
3) M Bradley- Roma looks like the right place
4) L Donovan- need him for those hex home games
5) F Johnson- stays at lb
6) G Cameron- stays at cb but need 2 see more
7) J Altidore- AZ good,USA below avg,not all his fault
8) J Jones- what a pass on dempsey's goal
9) S Cherundolo- didn't think we would miss him so much
10) B Friedel- still very good
11) T Chandler- expect him 2 bounce back big time
12) B Guzan- is he the keeper of the future?
13) B Shea- Stoke confirms this ranking
14) H Gomez- could lose his spot on the us team
15) S Kljestan- don't play him on the lw again
16) O Gonzalez- still starts over Boca
17) D Williams- shaky
18) C Bocanegra- almost done
19) T Boyd- needs more consistence
20) C Wondolowski- could he be an option on the wing?
21) G Zusi- don't think he's peaked yet
22) E Johnson- favorite FIFA player ever
23) J Agudelo- fearless prediction: signs with Palermo
24) J Corona- big part of the next cycle
25) M Edu- player most likely to move up
26) M Parkhurst- back in the picture
27) C Pontius- big year ahead if healthy
28) S Holden- come back player of the year?
29) J Castillo- better than Bornstein
30) J Gatt- is very fast
