A new season is off and running in Europe, with many Americans looking to make their marks and, hopefully, earn a call-up to the United States men’s national team in the next World Cup cycle.

The past week was topped by the debuts of teenagers Emerson Hyndman and Rubio Rubin, and there’s transfer news involving Geoff Cameron, Fabian Johnson, Brek Shea and Jonathan Spector.

Catch up on all the action in this week’s USMNT watch.

 

The Premier League Boys



In the English Premier League, Aston Villa and Brad Guzan beat Stoke City 1-0 to open up their season. Guzan had two saves in the win, but the bigger story was the absence of Geoff Cameron for the Potters.

While Cameron has been a regular starter for Stoke over the past two seasons, he wasn’t in the 18 on Saturday. A story by Pete Smith of Staffordshire's Sentinel (h/t @socceroverthere) implied that Cameron may have been left out due to his participation in this summer’s World Cup, but the snub was also enough to reignite transfer rumors that were floating around earlier this month.

Brek Shea was also not part of the 18 for Stoke and has been told that he can leave the club, either on loan or on a permanent basis.

Both of the other Americans in the EPL played this weekend, with Tim Howard in the net for Everton’s 2-2 draw with Leicester and Jozy Altidore coming off the bench for the final nine minutes of Sunderland’s 2-2 draw with West Bromwich Albion.

 

The Germans

In Germany, Steve Cherundolo was given a testimonial match by Hannover 96 last weekend, the club where he earned 415 appearances before retiring last spring.

This weekend, German teams were in German Cup action, but most of the Americans playing in Germany were spectators.



Fabian Johnson didn’t play for Borussi...
