It was interesting to learn that Clint Dempsey had retained his place in the USA squad for the forthcoming internationals.
Especially when you consider he has had very little first team football. Indeed, first team football is, apparently, the route to international glory in most cases.
Therefore, when Eddie Johnson was despatched to Cardiff City, on loan, to further his English football education, he`d have been hoping that he`d get sufficient match-time to boost his international reputation.
Apparently not!
Since going to Cardiff, Johnson hasn`t reached the levels we`d hoped he`d attain and, as a result, hasn`t been selected alongside Dempsey in the USA squad.
A loan spell that hasn`t worked or a player out of his depth?
I`d appreciate your comments.
