    Cooper will never get another call. BB is in charge and KC will know that very soon and far into the future.

    In the Hunt article it says:

    “I think these next two games are going to be huge for us,” Hyndman continued. “This game against Tigres is another opportunity for our players. We lost Andre (Rocha) for Real. So, this is a great opportunity for somebody to show that they believe they belong on the field.”

    What happened to Rocha? I can’t find anything about why he’s out…

    Cooper will get another call because he is a class above Eddie Johnson and is soon to be playing for an English team. He has shown his class yet again by declining this invite so that he can help FCD make the playoffs.

    I really hope that FCD realize Cooper needs to be our DP.

    Christian,

    It remains to be seen if Cooper will go on Bradley’s black list or not. Previous US Nat coaches have been known to black list players that chose to honor a club commitment over a national team callup.

    Some may argue that Cooper already was on Bradley’s black list.
