I'm surprised Ching didn't make it. Bob has always had a soft spot for him. We might miss his physical presence. And I hope Bornstein stays on the bench.

bob's also gotta soft spot for bornstein, i'd of taken heath pearce over him any day...and at least hedjuk and beckerman didn't make it, i'd reject us soccer for ever if that happened! i'm also quite worried about gooch, from a coaching standpoint he's had a little too long of a break.
i'm excited to see how young stuey does, and i got a good feeling about hercules.
i can't imaging rooney NOT ripping our defense apart easily...
good luck to the boys

Edmund -- all great points.

Gooch looked REALLY rusty and Bornstein was dreadful. Again.

I agree that Hercules could be a revelation.

And yes, at least Frankie isn't on the team!

Good luck indeed. They'll need it.

beasley? really? again? *rolls eyes*

if Landonmyhead plays like he did at E'erton, they just might keep up with the goals scored against ... cuz that defense isn't going to help these world class goalies from having to save 20 sogs a game.
