The other Chicago Addick
Sounds like Jonathan Spector did himself no harm in the USA's last World Cup qualifier against Panama earlier this week. He played the full 90 minutes in the 2-0 win at right back showing his versatility, which could be crucial when Bruce Arena considers his final squad.
Arena said of Spector afterwards: "A solid game. His first 15 or 20 minutes weren’t his best, but once he settled in he played pretty well. My focus is on 2006. That is the objective. I would assume a player like John Spector, if he is not a part of 2006, he would be a part of 2010 given the fact that he is 19 years old. It is a little bit of both, but my focus is on 2006.”
So Arena keeping his cards pretty close to his chest. The USA's victory meant they finished top of the CONCACAF group for the first time in their history. ¶ 20:00
