It used to be that American players were laughed at in Europe.
I'm curious what some of the English fans and English Football followers think of our US national team and the players in the EPL and other European clubs right now. With the US in the same group as England in the World Cup, is it looked as an easy win or do you think that they are tough and England will need to really fight to beat the US squad.
Players like Howard ,Friedel, Keller, McBride, Beasley, Johnson, Dempsey, Edu, Reyna, Bocanegra, Spector. I know that guys like McBride.Howard and Beasley are good enough for EPL.
But all in all do you see a change in the caliber of American talent and do you see Americans being stars in the EPL and one day winning and leading the league in scoring and play.
I may be biased but I think we have gotten to a level where we can play in the EPL or the SPL.
Without just hating the player because they are American, I just want an unbiased opinion of our talent and where, as Americans our talent lies and can an American win a "golden boot award" or Captain a League winning club.
Has the time come where American players can beat the Italians,Germans,French or Spanish.
