• Edson Buddle, Los Angeles Galaxy
• Robbie Findley, Real Salt Lake
• Herculez Gomez, Pachuca (Mexico)

Midfielders
• DaMarcus Beasley, Rangers (Scotland)
• Michael Bradley, Moenchengladbach (Germany)
• Ricardo Clark, Frankfurt (Germany)
• Clint Dempsey, Fulham (England)
• Landon Donovan, Los Angeles Galaxy
• Maurice Edu, Rangers (Scotland)

Goaltenders

A notable cut from the team was Houston Dynamo forward Brian Ching. Ching, who was on the 2006 World Cup team but never got in a game, had worked very hard and contributed to USA Soccer's success over the last four years. It's sad to see him not get a chance from coach Bob Bradley to fulfill a lifelong dream of his.
