Bob Bradley names his 30 players for the US Men's National Team camp

Well how did I do?  My picks are bolded:

U.S. TRAINING CAMP ROSTER BY POSITION - Detailed Roster
GOALKEEPERS (3): Brad Guzan (Aston Villa), Tim Howard (Everton), Marcus Hahnemann (Wolverhampton)
DEFENDERS (9): Carlos Bocanegra (Rennes), Jonathan Bornstein (Chivas USA), Steve Cherundolo (Hannover), Jay DeMerit (Watford), Clarence Goodson (IK Start), Chad Marshall (Columbus Crew), Oguchi Onyewu (AC Milan), Heath Pearce (FC Dallas), Jonathan Spector (West Ham United)
MIDFIELDERS (12): DaMarcus Beasley (Rangers), Alejandro Bedoya (Örebro), Michael Bradley (Borussia Mönchengladbach), Ricardo Clark (Houston Dynamo), Clint Dempsey (Fulham), Landon Donovan (Los Angeles Galaxy), Maurice Edu (Rangers), Benny Feilhaber (Aarhus), Stuart Holden (Bolton), Sacha Kljestan (Chivas USA), Robbie Rogers (Columbus Crew), José Torres (Pachuca)
FORWARDS (6): Jozy Altidore (Villarreal), Edson Buddle (Los Angeles Galaxy), Brian Ching (Houston Dynamo), Robbie Findley (Real Salt Lake), Herculez Gomez (Puebla), Eddie Johnson (Aris Thessaloniki)

I find it interesting that Ching makes the list despite not playing since week 3 of the MLS season, and the same for Chad Marshall who only has played twice this year for his club.  I think Robbie Rogers got in based on last years performance as I have not been impressed with his play so far this year.

I did think that if Charlie was left off the list that Robbie would likely get the call, he has spent time learning the US system and that seems to be just as important to Bob Bradley as current form.

I can’t read the list with your alternating bold. Drives me insane. That being said…

How the hell do you take Klejstan in to camp and leave Beckerman out?
How do you take Klejstan and not give Davies a chance?
How do you take Klejstan?

Simple

He is a creative guy who plays outside, and if you have watched the last 3 Chivas matches he is playing very well. His team is a mess but they don’t need another defensive minded midfielder, they wanted a creative guy who can cross the ball.
