United States men's national team midfielders Jermaine Jones and Maurice Edu are both in their respective starting lineups as they continue their quests for UEFA Champions League glory on Wednesday.
Jones' Schalke sits in second place in Group B, trailing unbeaten leader Lyon by three points. Jones & Co. will look for the victory at home against Israeli side Hapoel Tel Aviv to keep pace in the group.

I’m only a realist.
What big euro competitions does BM get into? Hardly any recently..
Rangers on the other hand..
I know Rangers only tied Man u at Old Trafford and are tied 1-1 against Valencia.
Nice comment, you’re clearly not biased against Michael Bradley
If his comment is outrageous, where was all of the interest for MB after the World Cup? There was none.
I also wouldn’t call Rangers a top tier team
Absolutely outrageous comment here. Move along people, nothing to see here.
Great comment if it is meant to be sarcastic about the sometimes uneducated overreactions fans often have(and this isn’t meant to be any attack on certain MNT supporters, fans are like this in every sport for every team).
you also don’t see MB play in the champions league.. oops?
maybe because he’s not talented enough to be on a top tier team….
I’ve seen him give own goals before
You do not get much more unlucky than that.
No facts here! Only kneejerk opinions.
*390 minutes
England-Did not play
Slovenia-Subbed on at half
Algeria-64 minutes
Ghana-89 minutes (counting E.T.)
198 minutes out of 370-50.7%. That’s pretty significant.
You don’t see MB do that.
Don’t you think we should fire Bill Bradley?? Yeah, me too bro
OH SUCK own goal from Edu
Poor phrasing from the op aside, edu’s club performances have surely earned him a look in the spot next to jones.
Pointing to bradley’s past success in the cm isn’t good enough anymore now that jones is available, and edu and holden are both having solid seasons for clubs that are probably better than mogadanblech.
Don’t think of me as bÃtching about bradley either. I think it’s great that we have this much talent in our pool. And if holden/edu don’t perform in cm for the nats, we could do a lot worse than MB.
Oh you mean when he was subbed on for second halves?
Like that sort of playing time?
Coutinho (along with everyone else on Inter their mothers) DOMINATED Tottenham this half
so that must’ve been another edu that played 3 games in the world cup and in the last 3 friendlies post-wc. i know, facts.
Which is why I used the word “couldn’t”. Which suggests a past event.
But you are confirming that he was on the field?
Two friendlies, and so far out of position that it’s laughable.
Can we play Edu at striker?
That’s funny because I remember him starting both of our recent games (albeit one at CB). I’m willing to bet if he had played like this he would have stayed on the field against Colombia.
I love Micheal Bradley more than most but it is really hard to start him when Edu and Jones are getting such important minutes in the highest echelon of soccer and both are playing so well lately.
United v Bursapor or the Barca game.
Yeah… this is the guy that couldn’t get on the field for the USMNT.
Best shot in a year from any USMNT player
sorry misses an open net
EDU with ana amazing shot volley off the post and miller opens an open net
Did our friend Coulibaly show up to steal the show again?
What a header! Didnt know Mo could jump that high
Inter score ANOTHER.
4-0 after 35 minutes.
Got a feed to what? There are quite a few games on.
Dude is just crushin it.
It was a GREAT goal
does anyone else get annoyed when people consistently ask for feeds?

Header taken from corner over the keepers reach 1-0 RANGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
anyone got a feed?
Goodbye Spurs.
Well Barcelona couldn’t put in the close ones so Messi just hits the corner from 20 yards instead
Congrats if you have any Inter players on your fantasy team…conversely, I hope you don’t have any from Spurs.
wow tottenham is done with 75 min to go. Down 3-0 and have looked just awful
Eto places it upper corner 2-0 inter
Tottenham down 1-0 and have now lost the goalie to red card. PK upcoming
NANI from the top of the box with a beautiful goal
O/T but if any of you guys participate in the Q&A later, be sure to ask Ives of his thoughts on top5 American strikers in MLS right now and any chance they get a call up for the NT in time for the Gold Cup?
ALSO ask why doesn’t the GOLD CUP get bigger press or promotion in the USA or Canada or Mexico?
Are they though?
I’m watching the Barca game but I feel for the Danes. If Barca wins it won’t be by much. Danish teams are always suprising the bigger times in the CL.
