Klinsmann Named Head Coach of U.S. Men's National Team

Pirlo's always a helluvan asset. AC milan definitely blew it when they sold him to Juventus. Giovinco is reaching his peak, after a few blurry years struggling in top teams, he's finally reached his ideal setting at Parma's. I still think he's physically too small of a player but he's got quality.
That being said, I still don't see a good Italy. For starters, I never liked Prandelli. He's way overestimated.

SL, you are certainly in touch with the pulse of that team.

This was the first and only time I have seen Giovinco and he caused us fits.

That low center of gravity / exceptionally quick footed player has proven dangerous in many forms i.e., obviously Messi, Tevis and others.

Pirlo's game has a level of class that no American player can equal at this moment.

Great come from behind win against Bosnia-Hezegovina today. Jozy was in great form with his hat trick - I've watched the replay of his free kick at least a dozen times already.

Looks like we're developing a deep and successful squad. This can only help increase the talent pool for the beautiful game in America.

I tried to get tickets to the Sep 9th game against mexico. There are only a couple hundred left and the cheapest I could find was about $350. If ticket prices are an indication of how well the team is doing, well.......

Klinsmann has yet to lose to Mexico as a player or coach. Great game last night, Mexico had that who farted look for most of the game.

Definitely makes up from the debacle with Costa Rica.
