  • Jurgen Klinsmann is talking about things Jurgen Klinsmann likes to talk about: “It's difficult for me now to get them out of vacation. Some of them played their last game in October. In October!” he said. “I want to help them get back into shape, get back into rhythm, but, oh, by the way, we're going to play [two friendlies]. So some learned over time and prepared themselves really well, and some don't have that knowledge yet.”

  • The Los Angeles Galaxy visited the White House and Robbie Rogers got a shout-out from President Obama: “My guess is that, as an athlete, Robbie wants to win first and foremost — that’s what competition is all about. But, Robbie, you’ve also inspired a whole lot of folks here and around the world, and we are very proud of you.”

  • Not bad:
  • Bobby Wood is making the move to 2. Bundesliga club FC Erzgebirge Aue
