Represent: DC United to Send More Players than Any Other MLS Team to USMNT Camp

National team coach Bob Bradley issued his first call-ins to US National Team camp. This list is a domestic one, with only one Yank Abroad on the list. The DCenters is somewhat pleased to see that DC United is sending more players than any other MLS Team: Six of 'em. Keeper Troy Perkins, Defenders Boswell and Namoff, Midfielders B. Carroll and Gros, and Forward Alecko Eskandarian are all getting the look over. The only other MLS teams to be sending more than three are the LA Galaxy (4) and the New England Revolution (5).

Now, just because they're in camp doesn't mean they'll get capped in the upcoming friendlies. If I were to put an order of liklihood on these players seeing game time, it would be Boswell, Carroll, Eskandarian, Gros, Perkins, and Namoff in that order. Still, congratulations are in order. Have fun in California kids.

I like that six of our players will be getting some more serious practice during the off-season. I hope this will help us in the CCC

I'll be curious to hear where Bradley gives Gros the most minutes in practice - see if he thinks Gros is best used in a more defensive oriented midfield position or even in back....
