Squad for Mexico

Jurgen Klinsmann has made his selections known for his first game in charge of the USMNT. It will be about a tough a first game as any US manager has ever faced, with the US having recently been knocked off by El Tri in Bob Bradley's last game in charge.

Some surprise inclusions include D.C United netminder Bill Hamid, Michael Orozoco Fiscal who is remembered for his stint with the Philly Union of MLS, Jose Torres whos creativity and ability on the ball was overlooked by Bob Bradley on more than one occasion. Puebla winger and former NT constant Damarcus Beasley, who will be looking to revamp both his club and national team career in the next year. 

There were also some pretty big absences from Klinsmann's first roster, most due to conflicts with European clubs. These players are Jozy Altidore, Clint Dempsey, Brad Guzan, and Johnathan Spector.

I like the squad overall, it shows that he is going to give a bigger variety of players a chance to impress and isn't willing to shake it up from time to time.

A possible starting XI for the game against Mexico.

---------Agudelo

------Shea-Adu-Donovan

--------Bradley-Jones

Boca-Ream-Goodson-Cherundolo

---------Howard

With the friendly being against such a big rival you have to put out your best team to start at the very least. Hoping that the likes of Castillo, Torres, Chandler, and Edson Buddle get to prove their worth though.
