A surprise visitor to training


The answer, dcole, is his mood is great!
A smiling and upbeat Benny Feilhaber wandered out to the Mooch Myernick Field this morning and gave us the progress report on his rehabilitation following surgery to repair a torn meniscus suffered in the USA's first match of the Toulon International last month:

"The surgery went really well. I will start jogging tomorrow, and we're hoping that I will be ready to begin training by the end of the month. I'm pushing hard to get back on the field as quickly as possible."
U.S. fans - and one Under-23 MNT head coach - will be watching closely to see if Feilhaber can make it back in time for the all-important matches this summer.
(and yes, he got major stick from the guys for the 'do ...)
