US Soccer announces training camp roster for Oct 17 friendly with Switzerland

Here it is:

GOALKEEPERS- Marcus Hahnemann (Reading FC), Tally Hall (Esbjerg), Chris Seitz (Real Salt Lake)
DEFENDERS- Carlos Bocanegra (Fulham FC), Steve Cherundolo (Hannover 96), Dan Califf (Aalborg BK), Jay Demerit (Watford FC), Oguchi Onyewu (Standard de Liege), Heath Pearce (Hansa Rostock), Steve Purdy (1860 Munich)
MIDFIELDERS- Freddy Adu (SL Benfica), DaMarcus Beasley (Glasgow Rangers), Michael Bradley (SC Heerenveen), Maurice Edu (Toronto FC), Benny Feilhaber (Derby County), Eddie Lewis (Derby County), Danny Szetela (Racing Santander)
FORWARDS- Clint Dempsey (Fulham FC), Robbie Findley (Real Salt Lake), Preston Zimmerman (Hamburger SV), Sal Zizzo (Hannover 96)

My impressions:

GK: not surprised Tim Howard isn’t here after he injured his finger playing in the US-Brazil friendly. Everton can’t be too happy about releasing him.

Defenders: Nice to see Califf get a call up, it’s been a while. I must say I’m not familiar with Steve Purdy.

Mids: Freddy, there you are! He might not start, but should get some minutes in this one. Looking forward to seeing more of Szetela and Zizzo.

Forwards: Who’s Robbie Findley? I’ve just heard about him in passing. I would have liked to see Bolton’s Johann Smith here, but oh well.

What I think we’ll see formation-wise:

——————————Hahnemann——————-

Cherundolo——Onyewu—-Bocanegra——Pearce

Beasley———-Feilhaber——Bradley———Lewis

——————————-Adu——————————

—————————-Dempsey————————

Any thoughts?
