RutgersJetFan Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Well is this a "lack of available talent in this country" issue or a "Jurgen didn't make the right decisions on the final 23" issue? I don't know if it's a lack as it is choices. Evans and Donovan were available. Klinnsman wanted youth and athleticism because of the group and he wanted to get the younger guys experience since he didn't think we could legitimately get very far. It is what it is.

Im actually a huge Brad Evans fan but maybe Klinnsman picked the best players. After all, they did make it out of the GoD. It's perfectly reasonable to say Donovan is done and Evans was going to get outclassed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's perfectly reasonable to say Donovan is done and Evans was going to get outclassed. I just find it confusing that he made it a competition between him and Yedlin. In hindsight it looks like there was plenty of wiggle room to have both of them. Yedlin is very good though. I'm excited about him going forward. He was great against Ghana.

Matt39 Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 I lit Marquis Daniels up in High School. Lit him up. When I work out now I relive my high school career in my head with a sweet Goo Goo Dolls playlist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's perfectly reasonable to say Donovan is done and Evans was going to get outclassed. This was a case of picking the RIGHT players rather than the best ones. We're never going to outclass another team on talent. We're going to beat them by making the right lineup/sub decisions, being better conditioned, more cohesive, and at times, outcoaching the opponent. So far so good.
