USMNT Prelim Roster Announced

Ching, Findley, and EJ all over a gamble on Davies, huh?
yeah this roster is f+cked. it blows my mind how this roster is made up of so many inconsistant USMNT pool players...yeah some may get the call alot, but rarely/not recently have they played well, esp. in big matches. Klejstan, Beasley, Rogers, Ching? Johnson? i know everyone swings on Johnson but that fool is lazy and dumb. If he gets in look for him to just run around and make pointless runs and not finish.
Bummed Jimmy didnt beat our Pearce or Marshall or even goodson.
Davies must really be unfit, cause I dont see how an american coach can pass him up and choose players like sacha, beas, rogers, and some mls forwards with out at least letting him train in the 30 man roster.
whatever. If we get blown away and are sent back after 3, i wont be hugely upset i suppose. If we do well, Bob will look like a God.
either way...can't wait for Bob to go.
No Davies = No Success
So Bryan, who do you select instead of Klejstan, Beasley, Rogers, Ching, Johnson?
And don't say Adu cause he's done less than Johnson at Aris.
Look it- I love Davies as much as anyone. But I don't get the dejected comments that we are already screwed because he isn't on the team. Relax. It's 11 not 1.
