I was just wondering what squad can us Yanks expect to see when the exhibition
training sessions start at the Nike Campus here in Portland. I know reserves will most likely
get all the playing time, but what internationals (not participating in the WC) could be tagging
along? What's your best guess on the complete list of players?

I'd say off the top of my head:

Goalkeepers

* Gunnar Nielsen

Defenders

* Dedryck Boyata
* Greg Cunningham
* Javan Vidal
* Joleon Lescott (If Fit)
* Sylvinho (If he's still at the club)
* Wayne Bridge
* Javier Garrido (If he's still at the club)
* Shaleum Logan (If he's still at the club)
* Nedum Onuoha
* Micah Richards
* Pablo Zabaleta


Midfielders

* Patrick Vieira (If he's still at the club)
* Kelvin Etuhu (If he's still at the club)
* Stephen Ireland
* Michael Johnson


Strikers

* Emmanuel Adebayor
* Craig Bellamy (If he's still at the club)
* Valeri Bojinov (If he's still at the club)
* Felipe Caicedo (If he's still at the club)
* Jô (If he's still at the club)
* Benjani Mwaruwari (If he's still at the club)
* Alex Tchuimeni-Nimely

Thanks a lot. Won't be surprised if a lot of players have been released by then!!

Its unfortunate for those that are going to these games, that they follow directly after the WC, otherwise the squad will have been alot stronger.
