Jurgen Klinsmann pleads urgency to USMNT players ahead of qualifiers

Reaching the final round of World Cup qualifying is the most important thing on the U.S. national team's agenda for September, but being able to introduce some youngsters to the mix would certainly be a bonus.

US national team head coach Jurgen Klinsmann unveiled on Sunday a 26-man roster that will be used for the upcoming pair of World Cup qualifiers against St Vincent & the Grenadines and Trinidad & Tobago. The squad included familiar faces like Jozy Altidore, Michael Bradley and Jermaine Jones, but also lesser-known commodities like Rubio Rubin, Paul Arriola and Caleb Stanko.
