"We've seen it all the time and everybody here knows it," Valentin continued. "We're maybe a little bit biased, especially me, knowing him for so long. "I think he should be starting for the national team."... ...Timbers coach Caleb Porter, who coached Nagbe — along with Valentin — at University of Akron, talked about the significance of the event. "It's a once-in-a-lifetime tournament for many of these players," Porter said. He also coached USMNT players DeAndre Yedlin and Perry Kitchen, so the Zips are well-represented on the national team. Porter was asked who he likes to win the tournament. He went with Nagbe and the U.S. "Gotta go with the U.S.," he said.

http://americansoccernow.com/articles/nagbe-and-pulisic-stand-out-as-yanks-beat-ecuador Darlington Nagbe: Even before his game-winning goal, Nagbe was the best player on the field. His crisp passing and possession-style game completely changed the dynamics of the midfield. He completed all 33 of his passes and scored a goal. Fitting in with this team, his chemistry with Christian Pulisic and Bradley was outstanding. This was his coming out party and the lesson is that Nagbe should start for this team. Rating: 9 Of course, I'm a Darlington fan and agree, but I also agree with their assessment of Christian Pulisic... 17 years old... looking good for USMNT for years to come.

Forever a Zip...

USMNT v Ecuador friendly tonight on ESPN2 at 8 pm EDT http://www.mlssoccer.com/post/2016/05/24/usa-vs-ecuador-international-friendly-match-preview?utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=News&utm_campaign=Unpaid Where will DeAndre Yedlin play? Often used by Klinsmann as a winger, DeAndre Yedlin has played his last two USMNT matches at his more familiar right back spot. He thrived there while on loan to Sunderland last English Premier League season, and, while he said on Monday that he’s not sure where he’ll play this summer, Klinsmann was a bit more definitive in a Facebook fan Q+A on Sunday. “DeAndre is, for us, also always an option maybe to bring in as a winger,” Klinsmann said. “But right now we hope that he is going into the Copa America as a right back with a lot of confidence.”

More on Perry Kitchen's move to Heart of Midlothian earlier this year http://sbisoccer.com/2016/05/perry-kitchens-patience-rewarded-with-right-fit-at-hearts ...Hearts liked him, too. The club could have waited until next season to test him out and see what he is capable of, but threw him into the fire and relied on him heavily down the stretch. Kitchen finished the season playing 90 minutes in each and every game he appeared in aside from his debut, which consisted of a 17-minute cameo off the bench. The pairing between club and player was as perfect a fit as could have been imagined. ... ...U.S. head coach Jurgen Klinsmann started Kitchen in that friendly, and the Indianapolis, Indiana native showed his bite and tenacity playing on the right side of the American midfield. Kitchen also hit a nice range of passes to link the defense with the attack, demonstrating even more qualities that could make him the future starting No. 6 for the U.S. ...

Unfortunately St Louis FC U23 lost 4-2 to OKC Energy, but that's OK because this is what I want to see to keep in shape for Fall...

"The really cool thing with Darlington -- and I've seen it happen here with the Timbers and I've seen it happen at Akron -- is when he gets around teammates that he really likes on and off the field, he tends to invest more, and even play better and give more. He wants to share wins and share success and share memories with his teammates. As kind of fluffy as it sounds, that's the kind of kid he is."
