  • MY TEAM showcase tomorrow with the 'A' squad

    U.S. Men's National Team head coach Bob Bradley has named a roster of 20 players that will train in advance of the FIFA World Cup qualifier against Mexico that will take place Aug. 12 in Mexico City.

    The U.S. seeks its first-ever victory on Mexican soil, with kickoff set for 3 p.m. CT at Estadio Azteca, famed for its grueling combination of altitude, smog and more than 100,000 spectators.

    The match will be broadcast live on Telemundo, mun2, and the Futbol de Primera Radio Networks. Fans can follow live online via ussoccer.com’s newly upgraded MatchTracker and twitter.com/ussoccer.

    Nice to see Torres and Holden on the roster! Though neither of them will play I bet. I guess Bradley must have destroyed those pictures Beasley had of him. It is about damn time he was dropped.

    Who do you think will start at striker for the US HL? - T.K.

      Darn T.K. you just exposed that difficult decision the coach Bradley has in selecting his starting strikers.

      Donavan and Ching...1st my first choice

      Donavan and Altidore...2nd choice

      Donavan and Davis....3rd choice

        Interesting stuff but I don't see Donovan playing up top. I think he'll be out left like in the confederations cup.

        My bet is that it will be Altidore and Ching. I am not a fan of Ching at all but I am wise enough to realize that the US does not have a single player in the pool right now that can do what he does. In the game tomorrow they will need someone who can play well with his back to goal and hold the ball up for the team to get forward. Brian Ching is the only player who has those qualities. To top it off he is money in the air. - T.K.
