Bob releases Slovakia roster, hospital releases Charlie Davies
Marcus Hahnemann is back in the US MNT roster with his new ride (hint: it’s his bike — don’t get you hopes up for a pimped out 1970s army tank or something), but first, the best news of the week from The AP:
U.S. forward Charlie Davies was released from a Washington hospital on Tuesday nearly a month after a car accident killed a fellow passenger. [...]
In a statement, Dr. James DeBritz of Washington Hospital Center said Davies will rehabilitate with the national team staff.
DeBritz said it will take extensive physical therapy for Davies to recover from several broken bones, including two in his right leg, and a lacerated bladder.
Davies is expected to need six to 12 months to recover, essentially ruling him out of the World Cup, which begins in South Africa in June.
So Charlie is thankfully now on the long road to recovery and while he won’t be with the team for the World Cup, I’m sure the boys will use him as inspiration in South Africa and hopefully we’ll see Charlie back in uniform sooner.
And now for the full 22-man roster for the Slovakia friendly:
GOALKEEPERS (3): Brad Guzan (Aston Villa), Marcus Hahnemann (Wolverhampton), Troy Perkins (Valerenga)
DEFENDERS (9): Carlos Bocanegra (Rennes), Jonathan Bornstein (Chivas USA), Steve Cherundolo (Hannover), Jimmy Conrad (Kansas City Wizards), Clarence Goodson (IK Start), Frankie Hejduk (Columbus Crew), Chad Marshall (Columbus Crew), Heath Pearce (FC Dallas), Jonathan Spector (West Ham)
MIDFIELDERS (6): Michael Bradley (Borussia Mönchengladbach), Clint Dempsey (Fulham), Benny Feilhaber (AGF Aarhus), Sacha Kljestan (Chivas USA), Dax McCarty (FC Dallas), Robbie Rogers (Columbus Crew)
FORWARDS (4): Jozy Altidore (Hull City), Conor Casey (Colorado Rapids), Jeff Cunningham (FC Dallas), Eddie Johnson (Fulham)
Most notably absent from that group are Tim Howard and Landon Donovan, but since this match doesn’t really count for anything other than a practice test, that makes sense.
Dax McCarty and MLS leading goalscorer Jeff Cunningham (he finished the regular season with 17 goals — one more than Conor Casey and five more than Landon) are a couple of interesting additions, with the latter perhaps auditioning for a last-chance move to Europe.
Also, hey look! The Grown Ass Man is back! Amazing what scoring a brace for the Fulham reserves can do for your career.
