USA Final Squad

Fifa Ranking: 14 (957 Points)
First appearance: 1930
No. of appearances (inc 2010): 9
Best result: Semi-Finals (1930)
Coach: Bob BRADLEY (USA)

USA coach Bob Bradley has confirmed his final 23-man squad for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. The USA World Cup squad largely comprises familiar faces, with veterans such as Steve Cherundolo and of course Landon Donovan rubbing shoulders with youngsters like Jozy Altidore.

However, there is one notable omission in the form of Brian Ching, who has been unable to win back the coach's favour.

The Americans travel to Africa hoping to improve upon their dismal showing in Germany in 2006, when they managed just a solitary point, ironically against eventual winners Italy.

Goalkeepers: Brad Guzan (Aston Villa), Marcus Hahnemann (Wolverhampton Wanderers), Tim Howard (Everton)

Defenders: Carlos Bocanegra (Rennes), Jonathan Bornstein (Chivas USA), Steve Cherundolo (Hannover), Jay DeMerit (Watford), Clarence Goodson (IK Start), Oguchi Onyewu (AC Milan), Jonathan Spector (West Ham)

Midfielders: DaMarcus Beasley (Rangers), Michael Bradley (Borussia Moenchengladbach), Ricardo Clark (Eintracht Frankfurt), Clint Dempsey (Fulham), Landon Donovan (Los Angeles Galaxy), Maurice Edu (Rangers), Benny Feilhaber (AGF Aarhus), Stuart Holden (Bolton), Jose Torres (Pachuca)

Forwards: Jozy Altidore (Hull City), Edson Buddle (Los Angeles Galaxy), Robbie Findley (Real Salt Lake), Hercules Gomez (Pachuca)
