  1. Guzan doesn’t even start for bottom of the table (19 games from relegation) Aston Villa.

    Congrats to absentee American owner Randy Lerner for being almost as bad as Hicks and Gillette at Liverpool.

  2. Really like this kid thought he played well in U-17s this fall, but just didn’t have anyone in defense to help him. Nice to see Timmy Chandler was slow to get back on defense for his club team as well, consistency is all one can ask for.

  3. Pulisic had an assist in a friendly today against Eintracht Frankfurt. He made a more impressive pass though on a play that was ultimately called back for offside.
