Who will make it to South Africa?

Yanks Abroad is out with its latest '23 tickets to South Africa' list, and while I agree with most names, there are a few points to make:

During the USA-Netherlands match, the scrawl said Feilhaber was out "indefintely." Let's hope his returning to traiing with his club is swift. He ought to be on the squad, but his health is unkown.

Stuart Holden is close to a lock, depending on fitness afeter breaking his leg in the Holland game.

Brian Ching would go into the "Work to Do" category. He doesn't score goals when it counts and couldn't rally the younger guys when the team was getting pasted by Mexico.

Replace him with Conor Casey, who has scored in WC qualifiers lately. Never can take too many strikers to a month-long tournament.
Bedoya should have a good chance of making the team.

Nice to see Beasley back, and playing the ball forward. He will be a good sub in South Africa

Not sold on Goodson yet and wondering when Ricardo Clark will be healthy.
