Here's the USA lineup for the qualifier tonight against Honduras:
Howard
Spector, Onyewu, Bocanegra (c), Bornstein
Dempsey, Clark, Mastroeni, Donovan
Altidore, Casey
I'm not a big fan of that midfield pairing, and there's been talk that neither Adu nor Torres are dressing tonight. I haven't seen the subs yet, but if true, that is extremely disheartening.
It's nice to see Casey get the start, though I think some people will be surprised to see him paired with Altidore, who is clearly not match fit.
This is a big match people, and Bob is reverting to form. Let's hope it works.
Here's your bench, and it's been confirmed. No Adu or Torres:
Guzan, Feilhaber, Wynne, Kljestan, Beasley, DeMerit, Davies
Blech. Neither Kljestan nor Feilhaber are equipped to provide offensive flair like Torres, and I simply don't get it. Beasley is predictably on the bench.
*UPDATE*
While the lineup is a concern, now those of us watching from home have something else to worry about. The match will start on ESPN Classic until college baseball coverage comes to an end. Blech.
