Mexico is ramping up pursuit of starlet Luis Gil. To be clear, El Tri has expressed interest in the Real Salt Lake midfielder who represented the United States at the youth levels before but this sounds a bit more serious. There's no reason to think he'll jump, but perhaps a call up to the American camp is in order?
When you talk about players on the outside who might push their way into the World Cup roster, you have to think about Danny Williams. Here's an argument that he'll be back sooner rather than later. Yeah, I'm not so sure about that, but it's worth watching.
Brek Shea, who is once again returning from injury, hopes he'll get into Stoke City's Capitol One Cup match next week. There's a chance he could play on the weekend, but the winger sounds less than hopeful: "It's more likely to have a chance next mid-week at Tranmere than at Arsenal on Sudnay because we've been playing well and why change a winning team."
Former United States national team star goalkeeper Brianna Scurry is struggling to recover from a concussion she suffered in 2010. "She sits alone in her dark apartment for hours on end. She can't get through a day without napping. When she drives to the grocery store, she writes down exactly where she parked her car. When she gets inside the store, she often can't remember why she's there," the USA Today's Christine Brennan writes in the powerful piece.
We laugh, because we can't cry.
All Tim Ream does is deliver assists. (Assist to Soccer Over There.)
The best.
Get your shirts now. Seriously.
