MLS All-Star Game 2011: Kasey Keller Will Be There, Osvaldo Alonso Won’t

Kasey Keller: He may be aging, but he is the face of US Soccer for a generation and so there is little surprise that he was elected to the First XI. While he may not get the reflex saves that he once did he still has the leadership and experience to be a top 5 keeper in the League. Keller also managed to strong-arm the league back onto the active roster and will fly into the game from the match in Panama the day before the All-Star Game. Keller has a 0.95 Goals Against Average with a 72.8 Save Percentage.

Osvaldo Alonso: He wants the ball back, and he don't care who has it. Affectionately nicknamed the Honey Badger out in Seattle he is one of the best ball winners MLS has seen over the past three seasons. The Cuban political refugee also adds the threat of a long range shot to the Sounders arsenal and is becoming a much better passer. He is one of the Inactive All-Stars. Alonso has 3 Goals and 2 Assists in 21 Appearances, all starts.
