With this friendly being played on a non fifa date and with the gold cup in the summer, does anyone think that the club will block Altidore and Bradley from playing? Word is this friendly will almost exclusively feature MLS players.
With most of the yanks generally referring to this friendly as the annual cash grab I wonder what the club will do, why allow 2 of our DPs to risk potential injury on a non fifa date?
I suspect the club will likely release both players (as to keep them happy) but yikes god forbid if one or both of then suffer an injury against a bitter rival, these USA vs Mexico games tend not to be overly friendly at the best of times.
I for one hope that both Jozy and Mike decline, or that the club decides that this is not in our best interests, especially since we already lose them both for a month for gold cup. While we have a buy the week before the friendly, we play Dallas away 3 days later. I would rather not see our players needlessly fatigued in this fashion, especially Bradley who plays the work horse role for both club and country.
Thoughts? Opinions?
