Bro, we all know Landon was technically designated as a forward. His best position at the highest level is left or right mid, but he was LISTED as a forward. Once that happens, it's not like Jurgen could have called him up as a midfielder in place of Zusi or Davis. That'd just be chaos.

 

 

 

Anyway, reports from the usual writers that Lee Nyugen is coming to Europe with the MNT and Clint Dempsey is not. Jurgen doing Sigi a solid.

 

If this is Lee Nyugen finally putting everything together like he was supposed to at PSV back in the day and not just a flash in the pan, he is going to be a very intriguing player for the national team. He is absolutely tearing it up.

In which Jurgen attempts to legitimize 2 dumb call ups by repeating them :

MIDFIELDERS (6): Kyle Beckerman (Real Salt Lake), Alejandro Bedoya (Nantes), Mix Diskerud (Rosenborg), Julian Green (Hamburg), Alfredo Morales (Ingolstadt), Lee Nguyen (New England Revolution)

FORWARDS (6): Jozy Altidore (Sunderland), Miguel Ibarra (Minnesota United FC), Jordan Morris (Stanford), Rubio Rubin (Utrecht), Bobby Wood (1860 Munich), Chris Wondolowski (San Jose Earthquakes)

FIFA made a serious mistake whitewashing their report to the point where it only ripped England and Australia and cleared Qatar and Russia.

 

What's worse is that they did it in the manner of accusing the FA of serious crimes, which is going to result in government inquiries. Those tend to have subpoena power. And real consequences. Ditto the FBI investigation, which is now being kicked into a higher gear.

 

Every reporter for every one of their gutter papers is going to be trying to get the full Garcia Report now. Its going to come out and it's going to be glorious.

That makes too much sense to be real, so I'm assuming Altidore and Bedoya are the centerback pairing and Guzan is playing underneath the striker.

Morris and Ibarra didn't make the 18 which reinforces my belief he called them up only to legitimize his previous selection.

I agree completely; Ibarra in particular makes zero sense.

If that goal isn't offsides then they probably need to re-write the offsides rule.
