I don't see what people see in Horvath.

Besides that fact that he starts and wins with a Europa league team at his age?

Dude plays in Norway. Let's not pretend he's a young Tim Howard playing for Man U. I could end up being wrong and him turning into a great goalkeeper, but I don't see anything special about him right now. He's a tall, fairly mobile guy with good positioning for a young goalkeeper. That's what I see.

The USMNT goalkeeping bar is high. From Tony Meola playing lights out at USA 94, to Friedel/Keller/Howard all putting the team on their back in huge games for us. That's how I judge American keepers.

Thanks for the clear up.

And, I hate Bein Sports.

We all do. When they used their wide camera angle, the only guys I could pick out were Jozy and Brooks (because he's enormous).

If we want to know how serious the USSF is about our team, we only need to look at the television coverage. Bein Sports? WTH?

I had to watch the game on Spanish NBC with the television muted.

The TV thing was covered already in this thread. The contract is controlled by the home team - Costa Rica, in this case. BeIn buys up some of these away games, and there's nothing US Soccer can do about it.

It's the same with non-conference college football games.

Bein Sports is essentially the Al Jazeera ESPN. And you get C-USA football!!! Woohooo!!!!!

I honestly felt like we were making better progress as a "soccer country" under Arena and Bradley than we have ever made under JK.

Well, he did bring birth age to youth soccer. So there's that to be thankful for. Im sure the benefits of that chaos will be seen very soon. Just wait.

Jurgen, he's happy, I'm happy, is that why you are doing this? You don't want us to be happy?

Jurgen: No!

Well then get your **** together, get it all together and put it in a back pack, all your ****, so it's together.

And if you gotta take it somewhere, take it somewhere, you know, take it to the **** store and sell it, or put it in the **** museum. I don't care what you do, you just gotta get it together.

Get your **** together.

Its not a normal free add in. DTV gives away too many shopping channels and things like the LHN to be giving away BeIN

In October 2015 Horvath joined Brad Friedel, Kasey Keller, Tim Howard, and Brad Guzan as the only American goalkeepers ever to play in the UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup group stage.

On October 2, 2015, Horvath was named to the Europa League Team of the Week, a day after being named Man of the Match for a 11 draw against Ajax in which he notched 10 saves, most notably on a point-blank header from Viktor Fischer and on a corner serve from Davy Klaassen in stoppage time.

Horvath led Molde to a first-place finish in Europa League Group A with successful two-legged fixtures against Ajax, Celtic, and Fenerbahe, the latter of which featured two saves on Robin van Persie and three saves on Nani. Combining his play in the Tippeligaen and in the Europa League, he had not allowed multiple goals in a match for over two months. Horvath faced eventual Europa League champions Sevilla in the knockout phase and was unable to prevent a 13 aggregate defeat of Molde, although he kept a clean sheet in the second leg.


You're right, he's the ripe old age of 21 and is an embarrassment to the USMNT goalkeeper legacy. May he hang his head in shame.

Ha, I laughed,and starred.

By comparison, T. Howard was moving on to Man U by age 22 or 23.

I hate people bring up Howard at United. He had about half a decent season there before being dropped and spending most of the next 2 years on the bench as the Cup keeper.

Yarbrough is the answer! Just watch a Leon match, he keeps his team from being crap.
