With Bruce Arena back in charge of the United States men's national team, there are sure to be a few new faces introduced to the first-team setup in the coming months.
The first chance for some players to prove their worth to the former L.A. Galaxy manager came in the last few days during the Major League Soccer playoffs and European club action.
Only a couple of players stood out abroad this weekend since a handful of normal starters in Europe didn't feature for their respective sides.
One who did was the much-maligned Timothy Chandler. In addition to some good news on the pitch, transfer speculation began to swirl around one of the MLS-based players in the talent pool.
