As the USA heads into 2016 with the Copa Centenario and World Cup 2018 qualifying on tap, it faces a new situation: an unsettled situation in goal. Longtime No. 1has been injured and rumored to be headed to MLS from Everton, and No. 2has lost his starting job at last-place EPL club Aston Villa. What about the keepers coming up through the ranks?, the 2015 MLS Goalkeeper of the Year, played his first game for the USA in more than six years in the 3-2 win over Iceland., making his international debut, shut out Canada, 1-0.was the third keeper in camp afterleft camp with a knee injury that will sideline him for up to six months.“We are very pleased with what we saw in this camp from Luis Robles and from David Bingham," said U.S. coach in an interview with USSoccer.com . "Obviously, Bill Hamid and Sean Johnson have always been with us. They came out of the last Olympic team cycle and they are always there, and we believed that we know them pretty well, so we gave a little bit more priority to Luis with the first game against Iceland and he did well, and the second game against Canada with David Bingham and I think he really had a good game."Klinsmann was impressed with what he saw from Bingham, who started played all 34 games for San Jose in 2015 after making five appearances in his first four seasons in MLS."He came off the line," added Klinsmann. "He controlled his box. He tried to play the ball out quickly and tried to find midfielders right away in higher positions. It reflected really the whole four weeks in terms of the spirit of the group because he was feeding off that energy that was created from the entire group."He was confident. He was not nervous. I told him, ‘Just play your game and do it the way you’re used to. If there’s something to modify later on we can talk about, but now don’t overthink that situation.’ And that’s what he did. He seemed calm from the beginning and also alert. Having Luis at our disposal and having David now being a part of the picture as well it widens our goalkeeper pool."Obviously we have the two big shots with Brad Guzan and Tim Howard, and thenwho’s always been with us. It’s just a good feeling for us coaches now to see there are two or three other goalkeepers that are ready when we need them as well.”
