It was a sickening feeling watching the USA's overlapping play leading to their game tying score in the Office earlier this year. You could see the play developing and our defense looked powerless to stop it.
Correct me if I am wrong but why is Robin Fraser not a Reggaebwoy? Has he been asked? Did he turn it down. As a central defender for the Columbus Crew and 5 time Defensive Selection in the MLS his experience against the United States National Team members would have been invaluable, considering he played against many of them during his tenure with the MLS?
I have no knowledge of the facts, but I am hard pressed to see if this was another oversight by the "Boys Management" not to blindly allow a hard nosed experienced defender to esape an invitation.
Your opinions please?

MLS Defender of the Year
Robin Fraser (Columbus Crew)
The nine-year veteran enjoyed one of his best seasons in MLS after an offseason trade from the Colorado Rapids to the Columbus Crew, winning Defender of the Year honors for the second time after he won in 1999 when his leadership took the Los Angeles Galaxy to MLS Cup. Aided by 10 shutouts, the Crew set an MLS record by finishing out the regular season with a record 18-game unbeaten streak. A key to the campaign was when the Crew changed to a three-defender scheme, with Fraser in the middle of a young group that also included a 19-year old rookie - and the team allowed the fewest goals in the Eastern Conference (32) on its way to its first Supporters' Shield in club history. |
