Goldfingers: Bradley picks roster for Gold Cup


Bradley Names 2007 CONCACAF Gold Cup Roster

On Thursday, Bob Bradley named his first, non-interim tag U.S. roster for the team’s defense of the Gold Cup, which begins June 7 against Guatemala at the Home Depot Center. And his first official roster hitched his wagon firmly to the youth movement in U.S. soccer. Revs defender Michael Parkhurst, who was named to TYH’s MLS Best 11 Week 6 will receive his first cap with the national team, while fellow youngsters Benny Feilhaber, Frank Simek, Jonathan Spector and of course Michael “it’s-not-nepotism-if-I’m-good” Bradley were also added. One stretch might be the inclusion of 23-year-old Brad Guzan as the third-slot keeper, but with Marcus Hahnemann injured the number three spot is up for grabs.

Here is my projected starting line-up for the Guatemala match:


GOALKEEPER

Howard


DEFENDERS

Spector, Bocanegra, Onyewu, Bornstein


MIDFIELDERS

Dempsey, Donovan, Feilhaber, Beasley


FORWARDS

Twellman, Johnson
