Is there any chance he'll start for USA tonight? Appears he didn't start due to the game being on turf. Why our NT is playing a GC game on turf, don't ask me. But Stu Holden also didn't start due to the turf and since Shea's toe injury originally happened on turf in Vancouver, it makes sense.

An MLS player was once asked if he preferred grass to Astroturf and he replied "I've never smoked Astroturf"

Arsenal didn't try to sign him, he was only there to train with them, there's more than one interview with Wenger that points to this.

It also predates the MLS - so it would have been about a Grid Iron footballer when I first heard it.

He's having a shocker, misplacing simple passes, an awful cross and is really struggling to take his man on. Edit: Didn't see person above, sorry.

'Mare of a game. Completely different player from the 30 mins he played against Belize...
EDIT: 1 dangerous ball into the box.

Be glad you have it on a crap internet stream over yonder. I'm watching it in HD and with the rain, Shea's stupid fauxhawk thing makes him look slightly like a hybrid hobo/hedgehog being of some sort.
And the best player on my club, Jack McInerney, whom they miss desperately, is sitting on the bench doing nothing.

To be honest gifton Noel-Williams moved quicker than Shea has so far. Very worrying.
