Normally we like to showcase some of the best things going on with United States men's national team players each week. But Brad Guzan's performance on Saturday at the Etihad Stadium made us rethink that strategy.

In the heat of a relegation battle with Aston Villa, Guzan turned in one of the most forgettable outings of his career on the way to a 3-2 defeat.

Elsewhere across Europe, a few USMNT-eligible players were active in the scoring column, including one of the most consistent players in the red, white and blue over the last 12 months. 

A strange Saturday in Major League Soccer also put some USMNT players into the spotlight a few months before the 2015 CONCACAF Gold Cup.

Keep reading below for a comprehensive look at how most of the players on the USMNT depth chart fared this weekend. 

 

Guzan and Villa Stumble in Survival Fight 

Aston Villa failed to keep up the momentum created by their 1-0 win over Liverpool in the FA Cup semifinal last Sunday. 

Guzan committed a brutal howler in the third minute, which allowed Sergio Aguero to calmly walk the ball into the net. 

The current USMNT No. 1 goalkeeper also positioned his wall wrong on Aleksandar Kolarov's free-kick goal, and he saw the ball go through his legs for Fernandinho's 89th-minute winner. 



Villa still have a small bit of breathing room above the bottom three, but one more bad match like this could drop them closer to the Championship. 

Tim Howard made four saves against his former side, as Everton downed Manchester United 3-0 on Sunday. Geoff Cameron featured for 87 minutes of Stoke City's 1-1 home draw with Sunderland.

Jonathan Spector and Danny Williams went the distance for their respective sides in the Championship, while Eric Lichaj played 62 minutes for Nottingham Forest.
