This is the roster as of right now...

Goalkeepers (4) - Jon Busch (Columbus Crew), Joe Cannon (Colorado Rapids), Kevin Hartman (Los Angeles Galaxy), Nick Rimando (D.C. United)

Defenders (8) - Chris Albright (Los Angeles Galaxy), Jimmy Conrad (Kansas City Wizards), Nick Garcia (Kansas City Wizards), Frankie Hejduk (Columbus Crew), Ritchie Kotschau (Colorado Rapids), Chad Marshall (Columbus Crew), Eddie Pope (MetroStars), Tony Sanneh (Chicago Fire)

Midfielders (9) - Clint Dempsey (New England Revolution), Diego Gutierrez (Kansas City Wizards), Justin Mapp (Chicago Fire), Pablo Mastroeni (Colorado Rapids), Clint Mathis (Real Salt Lake), Brian Mullan (San Jose Earthquakes), Ben Olsen (D.C. United), Steve Ralston (New England Revolution), Clyde Simms (Richmond Kickers)

Forwards (7) - Brian Ching (San Jose Earthquakes), Alecko Eskandarian (D.C. United), Ed Johnson (Dallas Burn), Mike Magee (MetroStars), Pat Noonan (New England Revolution), Taylor Twellman (New England Revolution), Josh Wolff (Kansas City Wizards) .

Sanneh is a little injured but he has been forever. I know we aren't playing a super-strong team but are we taking our opponents from granted because we don't have too many A-Team Players.
 
Arena tries so hard to have good relationships with European coaches. He can call up players since it's a qualifier but since he doesn't think we need them he doesn't bother. Anyway, I would have liked if he called up a few guys from Europe but I think we can win with this squad. It's going to be weird to have these all-MLS sides without Donovan. I'm not really looking forward to that. Hopefully Johnson can knock a few in.
 
Oh is he upset? How is he feeling on that?

From what I know, he's fine with it. For a while he sounded like he wanted to stay but from what I heard he's looking forward to the challenge. If he was really upset, he probably would have asked for a transfer or something.
 
Every American Player who gets offered a contract to Europe should go. The Americans skills would develop greatly and would only mean better to our team. Yes, MLS may receive some backlash because of it, but US Soccer as a whole will gain a lot more.
 
The game is tomorrow at 2:30. I'm going to get "sick" and leave school early so I can watch.
 
:eek: Totally forgot. I am in school right now and just remembered by reading your post. Thanks. :up: Damn, I am probably going to miss the 1st half...:(

Is it on ESPN2?
 
The US won 2-1. It was a good kickoff to the finals of WCQs. I think we played better the whole game, it would have been a shutout but they pulled one back late.
 
Eddie Johnson scored another goal. The man is a beats and based on his last 3 games alone I think he will make the WC team barring injury. Next game isn't until March 30th :(
