Another good day at the office for Geoff Cameron and Stoke City came at the expense of a fellow American.
Stoke picked up its second victory in three days by pushing four goals past Tim Howard in a narrow victory on Monday. Cameron and the rest of the Potters triumphed, 4-3, on the road in an entertaining and back-and-forth affair that saw Stoke overturn a one-goal deficit in the final 10 minutes. Cameron contributed to his side’s cause with a 78-minute shift while Howard made one save for the Toffees.
Only a couple of other Americans saw time on Monday, including Brad Guzan. Aston Villa suffered its latest loss after getting blanked, 2-0, by Norwich City, and Guzan came up with a pair of stops in the game. Guzan and the Villans remain in last place in the English Premier League table.
Here are how the Americans Abroad did on Monday:

What do you think of these performances? Impressed with Cameron and Stoke’s pair of wins these last few days? Are Guzan and the Villans doomed for relegation?
Share your thoughts below.
any hope for Guzan and Villa? when they get relegated is he going to stay or move to another EPL club?
Rumors are Villa is looking for a January replacement anyway. I think a couple years ago he was rated pretty highly but not as much anymore. He’s a good keeper, perhaps just not a great one. Maybe there’s a manager out there, that will want someone with EPL experience. That or his time as a EPL starter might just dwindling.
Sadly, I can see both Guzan and Howard potentially on a bench in a not too distant future.
