Bradley Names 23 Man Roster for Gold Cup

[Prime Time]

http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=433347&cc=5901

Goalkeepers: Tim Howard (Everton), Brad Guzan (Chivas USA), Kasey Keller (Borussia Moenchengladbach).

Defenders: Frankie Hejduk (Columbus Crew), Carlos Bocanegra (Fulham), Jay DeMerit (Watford), Jonathan Bornstein (Chivas USA), Michael Parkhurst (New England Revolution), Frank Simek (Sheffield Wednesday), Jonathan Spector (West Ham United), Oguchi Onyewu (Standard Liege).

Midfielders: DaMarcus Beasley (PSV Eindhoven), Michael Bradley (SC Heerenveen), Ricardo Clark (Houston Dynamo), Clint Dempsey (Fulham), Benny Feilhaber (Hamburg SV), Justin Mapp (Chicago Fire), Pablo Mastroeni (Colorado Rapids), Steve Ralston (New England Revolution).

Forwards: Brian Ching (Houston Dynamo), Landon Donovan (Los Angeles Galaxy), Eddie Johnson (Kansas City Wizards), Taylor Twellman (New England Revolution)

Surprises for me are...

Hejduk and Ralston being called back up again. Maybe it is because of experience and because of injuries to Cherundolo, Albright and Convey.

No Convey, Conrad, Cherundolo due to injuries.

Also no Cory Gibbs or Heath Pierce. Read the other article Soccernet has about the roster. The other one analyzes it. Interesting story about Pierce and Coach Bradley.

I don't like the "Weaker side will hit the Copa America" remark though.
