There is no doubt that at least one United States national team player that will be on the Gold Cup roster is playing in tonight's match between the Los Angeles Galaxy and Chivas USA, but is there another? U.S. head coach Bob Bradley is at the Home Depot Center to check out the game, which could mean he is keeping an eye on another player who might be on the roster that Bradley will announce on Monday.

Landon Donovan is the one sure bet to be on Monday's roster, but how about Omar Gonzalez or Justin Braun? Braun is a much bigger longshot, really only playing well last week and never establishing himself with the national team before. Gonzalez might have a better shot of making the team than some are giving him though. Big and strong in the air, Gonzalez could make the team if Bradley chooses to leave Oguchi Onyewu, who hasn't played well since injuring his knee in October 2009, off the roster.
Could Gonzalez make the Gold Cup roster with a strong match tonight? It’s possible. It is not as if the U.S. is strong at the back. It could be nothing though. Bradley is completely obsessed with soccer and considering he lives in Southern California, he could just be at the HDC to watch the match.
