US Squad for Costa Rica on Wednesday
Remember that ESPN is showing this live from Saprissa Stadium at 10pm Eastern. Here's the list of Bradley's usual suspects plus a return for Benny Feilhaber who apparently escaped Derby's frying pan straight into the firey oblivion of Danish football. Also, a point for discussion: the US Soccer website lists Guzan's goal total as 1. WTF?

Looks like a good squad to me. I'm glad to see Jay Demerit back in the fold and hope he gets a game ahead of Gooch.
Is it possible that Brad scored either a header from a corner against a no-hoper side in a rout? Or maybe a penalty in a shoot-out that they somehow counted? Just a thought.
I too don't fancy the idea of Gooch in Saprissa with some nippy little flopper posting up against him. God knows that we'll end up with a sh-t CONCACAF ref so I'd prefer someone a little less clumsy back there.
I really am intrigued about Guzan's goal. Maybe one of those Pat Jennings clearances?
