World Cup 2006 Group E Preview: United States Of America - Players To Watch
After two failed attempts at breaking into club football in the Bundesliga, Landon Donovan has a lot to prove to German football crowds in this World Cup. Playing and scoring regularly for Los Angeles Galaxy since returning to MLS, Donovan has the speed, skill and eye for goal that should have made him a big hit in European club football. The fervent fans of Sam’s Army won’t worry about his club record in Germany at all if he lives up to expectations in their national colours.
PSV Eindhoven’s DaMarcus Beasley is one of American football’s best recent exports and was the first American to play in a Champion’s League semi-final, for PSV in 2005. His completely unorthodox wing play and style can completely unsettle defenders and his goals and assists records are good indicators of his effectiveness. Bruce Arena will expect him to be on top form if his side are to progress beyond the group stages again.
