With the announcement of the United States men’s national team roster by Gregg Berhalter yesterday for friendlies this month against Ecuador and Chile, fans began to see how the new coach is rating many of the players in the American pool. With this being the only international window before this summer’s Gold Cup, Berhalter has an opportunity to evaluate some of the European-based players alongside some of the MLS-based players he has seen during January Camp.
However, this window means there’s not enough time for a full evaluation in advance of the Gold Cup’s June start.
