Cobb Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) Since no one posts in the gameday threads, it will be easier to just have on thread for all discussion. http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv347/PapiChuloCobb/a12.jpg Should be an interesting game. I think it is right in the middle of the MLS Playoffs so Jürgen Klinsmann might bring in some more international guys.

Cobb Posted November 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 Well, the 2011 campaign officially ended last week with a 3-2 win over Slovenia. It has really been a year of transition for the team, mainly with the introduction of Jurgen Klinsmann as head coach. I can't wait to see what 2012 brings along!

Cobb Posted January 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Did Clark even play in the World Cup? Yes. His turnover in the Ghana match led to them going up 1-0 just five minutes into the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sħãlïq™ Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 Yanks Abroad: Alex Smith’s Up-and-Down Season Down UnderUS midfielder Alex Smith, right, plays for the Wellington Phoenix, New Zealand’s only entry in the A-League, the game’s top level in Australia http://graphics8.nytimes.com/images/2012/02/07/sports/soccer/phoenix/phoenix-thumbStandard.jpg As Australia’s A-League season enters the final stretch, the Wellington Phoenix’s American midfielder Alex Smith is enjoying a remarkable comeback while aiming to lead the New Zealand-based club to its first championship. Smith, 26, has had a season that has its seen peaks and valleys. Last year, Smith was signed by the A-League club Gold Coast United after strong seasons with lower-league teams in Australia. During the preseason with Gold Coast, Smith sustained a minor injury and the club bought out his contract to make way for the Dutch striker Maceo Rigters. Under A-League rules, clubs are limited to five foreign players and Gold Coast’s only way to make room for Rigters was to delete Smith. http://goal.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/02/07/yanks-abroad-alex-smiths-up-and-down-season-down-under/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sħãlïq™ Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Klinsmann's USA set up Scotland contest(AFP) Wednesday 15 February 2012 USA has booked a 26 May friendly against Scotland as a warm-up match ahead of a 2014 FIFA World Cup™ qualifying opener against Antigua and Barbuda, the US Soccer Federation announced on Wednesday. The Americans will play Scotland in Jacksonville, Florida, and four days later face Brazil in suburban Washington. Four days after that match, they face Canada in Toronto. Those matches will set the stage for the first CONCACAF semi-final group stage match for the Americans against the Caribbean dual-island nation on 8 June in Tampa, Florida. Antigua and Barbuda have never faced the Americans. Jamaica and Guatemala are also in the group and only two teams will advance to next year's final round of qualifying for the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. "Our focus since last summer has been to prepare this team for World Cup qualifying," US coach Jurgen Klinsmann said. "It's critical that we start qualifying off on the right foot."FIFA.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobb Posted February 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Yep, and then we face Brazil four days later. Really looking forward to that one despite us being 1-15 against them all-time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobb Posted February 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 I missed the game like I always do since they start so early in the afternoon but I was relieved to hear we won. Glad to see us finally get a win against Italy and who better to score than Clint Dempsey. Dude has been playing some amazing soccer lately. The U.S. Women also played today and beat the Denmark Women 5-0 in their opening match of the Algarve Cup. The U.S. Under-23 Men play tonight against Mexico. Hopefully I'll be able to watch some of it. I'm really excited to see how Freddy Adu and Juan Agudelo play against a very solid Mexico side.
