NEW YORK (Reuters) - Former United States players Stu Holden and Alexi Lalas said they favoured Matt Turner in the lingering debate over who will start as goalkeeper in next month's World Cup in Qatar.
Who will be given the number one jersey has emerged as one of the Americans' biggest question marks ahead of the tournament, with the U.S. squad to be announced on Nov. 9.
Knee issues limited Steffen's recent playing time for English second tier side Boro and Turner started in goal for the Americans' final two warmup matches. "I hope we don't get to a situation where Gregg Berhalter has not made that decision leading into the World Cup." "You want to give your team some clarity in that position. I think Matt has consistently played well for the U.S.," said Holden."He's been healthy, training at a high level, playing at the high level... That's a position that you need consistency ."
