After a somewhat listless 0-0 draw against Serbia on Sunday, the US men’s national team will look to really shake the rust off on Friday, when they host CONCACAF foe Jamaica in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

Bruce Arena noted after the United States men's national team’s scoreless draw with Serbia that it wouldn't have mattered if his time won, 5-0, or lost by the same score.

I don’t have a big problem with the coaching change, but still worry where oh where will the goals come from??

Pulisic is the only consistently dangerous player we seem to have and he is way too young to be the “main man”.

Who will play “Brian McBride” to Pulisic’s “young Landon Donovan” - that is the question I think.

Good to have an American coach in charge of an American team. Welcome back Bruce!
