DALLAS -- By now you know that U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann has selected a veteran-heavy squad for next month's Copa America Centenario and that there was no place on it for blue-chip prospects such as Kellyn Acosta, Matt Miazga and Jordan Morris. But it would be wrong to think this is an old roster; this group of 23 players is slightly younger than the one Klinsmann took to the World Cup in Brazil two years ago.
"I think it's a good mix of young guys, old guys, guys with experience, guys who may be lacking a little bit of experience but will bring some youthful exuberance and some fresh blood into the group," captain Michael Bradley told reporters here before Wednesday's friendly in nearby Frisco, Texas (8 p.m. ET, ESPN2/WatchESPN).
