Good news for Dempsey fans and the USMNT

During the Blackburn Rovers fixture on Sunday 17 January, Clint Dempsey sustained moderate damage to a ligament in his right knee. Following the results of a scan, early indications are positive in that no operation is required. At this stage it is thought that the injury will not prevent him from featuring for Fulham, prior to the end of the season.

Whilst obviously disappointed, Clint is focused on his rehabilitation and will work hard, in line with medical advice, to return at the soonest opportunity.

Here is hoping that recovery will be quick and Deuce will be back sooner, rather than later.

I still question

I think the injury had a lot of people (myself included) panicked due to the lack of depth the USMNT has when it comes to attacking midfield players. While it looks like Deuce will be back fit before the end of the EPL season, one has to worry long term about where the next offensive playmakers for the USMNT will come?
