"One of the things about the US performance in the WC, it’s definitely going to make me pay much more attention to the U-17 and the U-21 teams and track how they are doing"

This 2014 team could have really used the 2010 version of Landon Donovan - would have made a huge difference in terms of keeping possession.

Just wishful thinking, I know, but my point is that I really don't see a "next Donovan" in any of the young players out there right now. Hopefully one emerges in the next couple years.

I think Green has potential. And don’t write off Altidore just yet.

Agreed, this Cup needs to be looked at objectively. Though I don’t agree with the perspective totally, I heard one fan say if USA wins, it’s thanks to Klinsmann’s genius, if USA loses, it’s because USA lacks talent.
