YOU SAW THE ROSTER, RIGHT?

A bit earlier than you expected, yes?

Fine by us. It gives us more time to obsess over the upcoming Hexagonal matches and it gives you more time to finesse and tweak your Starting XI. If you've created one before, you know the drill. If you haven't, it's time you got in on the fun.

Here's the link you need to create your U.S. vs. Costa Rica roster.

And here's the entire roster. Yes, Aron Johannsson and John Brooks both made the cut. Very cool.

GOALKEEPERS: Brad Guzan (Aston Villa), Tim Howard (Everton), Nick Rimando (Real Salt Lake)

DEFENDERS: DaMarcus Beasley (Puebla), Matt Besler (Sporting Kansas City) John Brooks (Hertha Berlin), Geoff Cameron (Stoke City), Edgar Castillo (Club Tijuana), Brad Evans (Seattle Sounders FC), Omar Gonzalez (LA Galaxy), Michael Orozco (Puebla)
