Can't see USA getting out their group.

I'm getting that glorious glittered eagle tattooed on my back with "ROCK FLAG AND EEEAAAAGLEEE" surrounding it in a scroll.

Where's our hype man @Garrick at? You're like the Flavor Flav for the USMNT...preach to us brother!

Only if they arrive on a huge cheeseburger shaped carnival float.

I have literally no idea who is playing for USA these days apart from Howard, Jozy and Landon.

But in the sticker book there's a lad called Mix Diskerud.

LOL

And how often does he get rotated into the side?

Mix is pretty good. Not sure how much he'll feature, but he should be in the squad for a few years.

We are going to win the WC because have Jozy Altidore and the rest of the world does not have Jozy Altidore.

Al-ti-dore
Al-ti-dore
We love Jozy Altidore
His first touch
Not so great
US(MNT) is the team that plays reasonable football

these lazy spellers and their never retiring goalkeepers are getting volleyed right out of this tournament by some natural footy nations

Good luck with that.

Howard - Good
Landon - Still good
Dempsey - playing well and healthy
Altidore - LEGEND
Bradley - our best player not named Altidore

The rest are a bunch of interchangable faces and names. None of the German contingent really impresses me so far (and I hate Jermaine Jones game). We haven't really developed a back line and wingers. We are kind of strong in the center of the pitch and on corners. While Klinsmann wants to play attacking footie we are probably best suited to playing physical and jamming it right down the middle and getting free kicks.

This team would have been fun as hell to watch if only Davies and Holden didn't break into pieces. They were going to be the future.

Yeah. Good attacking side, but a bit narrow. The back line is also a bit worrying.

There will be a lot of surprises on this team for non-North Americans I reckon. MLS has grown to the point where the good-but-not-world-class players can stay here and still get a good payday, so there's more talent than you would think.

This is the first World Cup cycle where that is finally the case. Hence my bullish-ness.
