Weston to start a game though I may have given Gio a start over Weah in one of the group games even though it is tough to fault Berhalter there as Gio has had a healthy amount of muscular/hamstring issues leading to the WC.

The one player I was excited to see for the US was Ricardo Pepi. I really thought this kid played well in qualifiers and even though his start at Augsburg was horrid he had picked up the pace in his first few games in the Dutch league on loan getting a goal or assist in each game. Players with Ricardo's nose for goal are tough to find. Luckily, he is still young enough to make a huge impact for the national team if he continues his progress.
