If only the US had played some more competetive friendlies in the past few years...

I agree and hopefully we'll see some positive results from the scheduled friendlies leading up to WC 2006. While Canada shouldn't be a tough game, matches against Norway and Japan should provide good test, both from the level of play as well as the differeing styles of play.

Leading up to WC '02, the US matched up against (at)South Korea, (at)Germany, Holland, Ireland, and Uraguay. Maybe (hopefully) the USSF will add some additional friendlies to the slate in preparation for this tough Group.
