1 less medal we'll get

Do me a favor and check back here after the final medal tally and we'll see which one of us feels superior

This not even about the Olympics.Its about your youth not being able qualify in the CONCAF ffs

When we didn't qualify in 08 it was, because of overconfidence and I was pissed.

Kind of sad you feel better than people based on their countries medals in the Olympics.

Aye, and you feeling better about yourself for USA's failure to qualify is admirable

Also that last stat is pretty crazy... although the US's uprising didn't begin until the 90's

I meant 90's my bad. But the history is interesting to look at.

And yes I think overconfidence played a significant part in not qualifying but there were a lot of other things as well.

One more reason why Marquez should be on your roster in London; experience.

Just think about all the sports the US is good at and get past it. People hate us because were great in just about every sport. Winning medals in soccer is just going to rub people's faces in it even more how bad they suck at other sports.

lol I don't hate the US I live here. You guys thought I was trollin you(which I was ), and now your excuse is we are better at other sports, so we don't care

am i going to be called a dirty illegal now

If you believe Wikipedia Mexico got 4th in 1968 and the US got 4th in 2000.
But it is a 16 team tournament so 4 isn't much to chear about.

The Woman arnt restricted to U23 in the Olympics and the US won gold in 96', 04', and 08' and silver in 00'. You should be proud of them reppin Concacaf hard.

It's a good excuse though.

Great reading comprehension skills

Not aimed at you, bruh

well, this is awkward

Who cares?

Football is on the rise in America and that is all that I care about.

Sure we won't get yet another medal but meh

Full roster for the upcoming WC Qualifiers against Antigua as well as friendlies against Scotland, Brazil and Canada. Klinnsmann will probably cut 4 players from this squad to trim to his preferred 23 which he says would be the most likely group had the WC been this year instead of '14.

FULL U.S. ROSTER BY POSITION:

GOALKEEPERS (3): Brad Guzan (Aston Villa), Tim Howard (Everton), Nick Rimando (Real Salt Lake)

DEFENDERS (8 ): Carlos Bocanegra (Rangers), Geoff Cameron (Houston Dynamo), Edgar Castillo (Club Tijuana), Steve Cherundolo (Hannover 96), Clarence Goodson (Brondby), Alfredo Morales (Hertha Berlin), Oguchi Onyewu (Sporting Lisbon), Michael Parkhurst (Nordsjaelland)

MIDFIELDERS (9): Kyle Beckerman (Real Salt Lake), Michael Bradley (Chievo Verona), Joe Corona (Club Tijuana), Maurice Edu (Rangers), Fabian Johnson (Hoffenheim), Jermaine Jones (Schalke 04), Jose Torres (Pachuca), Danny Williams (Hoffenheim), Graham Zusi (Sporting Kansas City)

FORWARDS (7): Juan Agudelo (Chivas USA), Jozy Altidore (AZ Alkmaar), Terrence Boyd (Borussia Dortmund), Clint Dempsey (Fulham), Landon Donovan (LA Galaxy), Herculez Gomez (Santos), Chris Wondolowski (San Jose Earthquakes)

-----------------

I expect this XI to turn out:

Agudelo left NYRB? :vagi:

thats a pretty good lineup,we are playing with our olympic team + Thiago Silva and David Luiz,i think you guys can pull something out

Albiceleste wrote:Agudelo left NYRB? :vagi:

Yeah they traded him away because he requested it. He wanted more playing time and with Henry and Cooper on form, he just wasn't getting it.

Mclewis you know cherundolo is a RB and Castillo plays LB. your formations has them switched.
I expect F. Johnson to start at left back and Jose F. Torres or J.Jones because Bradley and him play like shit together.
I think Gomez will get played on the LW

Yeah i know their positions, I'm not very consistent with where I put my full-backs in my formations

I dunno about Johnson starting at LB. Castillo has done well in the Primera this season. It would very much depend on how well Johnson as done at LB for Hoffenheim

Report is out that Graham Zusi, Danny Williams, Alfredo Morales and Juan Agudelo were the 4 players cut from the team.

Americans actually using my troll thread :vagi:

I don't think klinnsman had those players fly across the atlantic to cut them 5 days later. I think all the Germans are staying and getting capped.

Why no Timmy Chandler
