    Again compared to whom? You'd rather Laurentowicz??? Really?

    Did you watch last night? How pathetically we couldn't hold onto the ball vs Panama???

    So I guess the answer is no, you haven't watched, coached much soccer.

    Ah, got it, Failhaber may deserve his spot among the C team midfielders or B teamers on a good day. Makes a little more sense than the unintentional comedy implying Failhaber fits anywhere close to the top 4-5 US midfielders.

    Well if we didn't continue to play the empty bucket (like we did Wed) and actually used a creative midfielder, then he would be near the top. What other creative CM's do we have?? Holden kinda, but he's more box-to-box. Kljestan? I'd Feilhaber before him.

    I thought about him, but he's more of a holding MF, from what I've seen/read. And I'd take Feilhaber over him too.

    Gyau then. About to start getting pt in Germany. Playing in the bundesligga is a higher level than benny has ever played.

    Also, I think Holden is more than a box to box. Doesn't matter though, Benny is not close to starting for the A team so it doesn't matter.

    Possibly Gyau, haven't really seen much of him. And yea with the formation and personell Klinsmann seems to use, unfortunately I don't see Feilhaber getting much time.

    If he continues with the 4-2-3-1 or 4-5-1 or whatever he wants to call it, I suspect Dempsey will be in the AM or withdrawn FW position, which is fine with me.
