Americans Abroad Weekend Preview: Ream faces Robinson, Sargent takes on Dortmund, and more

Two of the top options for the U.S. Men’s National Team left back position for October’s Nations League square off in England on Friday in a match Gregg Berhalter will want to watch closely.

Tim Ream and Fulham face Antonee Robinson and Wigan in one of the top Americans Abroad matches of the weekend. Ream is coming off having been captain for the USMNT draw with Uruguay earlier in September, while Robinson is still fighting for a return to Berhalter’s setup and he has been playing well enough to merit consideration. Friday will offer him a chance to show how he stacks up next to Ream, who could start at left back for the USMNT in October, unless he winds up being deployed in central defense.

Elsewhere, Josh Sargent and Werder Bremen face a tough test at Borussia Dortmund. Christian Pulisic and Chelsea are favorites heading into this weekend’s meeting with Brighton & Hove Albion. Emmanuel Sabbi, Christian Cappis, and others will try to help Hobro to a league win at home. Sergino Dest and Ajax face FC Groningen at home in Eredivisie action.

  1. Dortmund made a killing selling Pulisic to the highest bidder, but now we are seeing the negative effects of that transfer. It is obvious Pulisic is far down in the pecking order, to the point where if Chelsea didn’t overpay for him that he’d probably go out on loan.

    What is the story with Tyler Adams? Is he still out injured?

  2. Fan collective: MLS players are naturally not as good because they don’t have to work to get on the field. Players should test themselves everyday to reach their potential.
    —————————
    Pulisic makes move to one of the ten biggest clubs in the world, competing everyday with Brazilian, English, Spanish, French, and Belgian Internationals.

    Fan collective: What terrible move why didn’t he go somewhere he’d play every week?

    • Lol yeah right huh? He’s still the same player he was. The fight will be good for him- his game, his mentality. It’s the anti-L.D. path. Her just turned 21…. much better developing there than to be a big fish in a small pond.

  3. Thats a wrap on CP.
    Cup specialist, blue moon sub.

    Hudson came on instead.
    Willian scored.

    Silver lining, maybe he can get out of spotlight and get to work. Get back to being the fearless youngster that took chances.

  4. Hobro lost today 2-1, but Cappis got an assist, Deedson made his debut, and all four Hobro yanks were on the field at the same time for the first time!
