    The USA facebook page is in full meltdown mode: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...1823940&type=1

    Announced probably 15-30 minutes ago on that page. Can anyone verify this?

    No secret that Landon and Juergen pretty much hated one another...so not sure why it comes as a surprise

    exactly him and klinsmann didnt get along, he definitely isnt going to be around in 2018 for sure, klinsmann knows he will be in russia as usa boss in 2018 so let the young guys experience it.

    You carry 3 goalies because when you get one suspended with red card or get hurt the next game you can have a backup.

    While you probably aren't technically wrong. There has to be gaining value in the USA side here, as "we suck" is the prevailing public perception and gaining.

    Hopefully no one here bet on Donovan to win the Golden Boot. All those bets are Action with no refunds.

    its no secret that klinsmann hates mls. he has i think 10 guys on this roster, only because he doesnt have much choice. if nothing changes in 4 years, then expect fewer in 2018.

    Who gives a shit?

    Fairy sport that Americans proudly suck at for a reason.
    Because there are a shitload of other MEN'S sports to play here.
    SOCCER is for women and everyone not in the USA.

    End of Thread.

    With Donovan's omission, only two players to make the final cut have scored goals at a World Cup (Clint Dempsey 2, Michael Bradley 1).

    guy has been overrated his whole career. Average player who couldn't succeed in Europe. Nothing but hype.
