Bit of a rough patch...

Keep believing Jon, you have plenty of fans here on TGB!

Im sure the national is the next natural progression in your comeback Buschy!

Also its difficult to feel fully satisfied when your playing well personally but the team has lost the game.

Keep up the good work matey.......

Hi Jon, I'm new to the forums and was just wondering what kind of knee injury you had? I've had experience with knee problems as well.

T-Simp,

I had torn my ACL in back to back seasons, same knee.

I tore my acl and some cartilage 8 months ago, so I know to a certain extent what its like. I was able to rehab extensively enough in 4 months to get back for my senior year of soccer.

But to have two acl injuries and recover is truly amazing. I can only imagine.

Congratulations on your success so far and recovery from such devastating injuries.

Great to hear that you are playing extremely well Buschy

Hang in there Jon, as you say, all teams go through a patch. Your performance has been outstanding this season, keep up the great work. I for one would love to see you back in the National team camp.

I know what you mean about Given, as you know from training, the number of Given jerseys I have. I am not a Gunners fan, but I would have to at least adopt them as a secondary team due to Shay. I have respected his decision to stay with Newcastle all these years without winning any silverware. I also would respect his decision to to join Arsenal in an attempt at earning the rewards his performances deserve.  

I hope Arsenal sells keeper shirts.....

Best of luck with the rest of the season!

Hopefully things will pick up,from youtube I've not seen any of this down turn to be your fault.

So all the best for the next few games.

Shay Given,I dont think he been great the last 2 seasons.

But I could say that for EVERY Irish international.

And I loved to be proved wrong :P

Great stuff buschy. I've seen two of the last three games and you are in sparkling form. The team aren't far off either, just shows what a  fine line there is between winning and losing.

Well played Bushy lad! seen all the highlights and being honest you have to be in the International frame soon.

As for the All Star voting, Buschy and Sutton have been by far the best keepers in the MLS and i hope they both get to play in the All Star Game. I never used to rate Sutton put he has proved me wrong this year and has been great. I hope they get the rewards they deserve and keepers dont get in on name alone Eg Hartmann, Reis, Guzan

keep up the good work & stay healthy.  you're an inspiration to all us shorties out there

Just saw the Chivas highlights on TV here in the UK, nothing you could do about the goals mate and you pulled off some good saves.

I am a bit torn re: your next Open Cup match with Clevelands USL2 City Stars, Buschy. My son is interning with them this summer and is traveling with the team. I guess, my hope is that you don't play and the Fire lose, but don't take it personally, lol. They have two very nice keepers...Hunter Gilstrap, who starts tomorrow, appears to be the real deal, but it will be a stertch for them--beating the Fire is not like beating a USL1 team on the road as they did last week to advance.

Based on what I have seen this year, you deserve a shot with the USMNT.

Haha, no worries.  Nick is playing tomorrow.  I am sure it will be a good game.

thanks

buschy

Jon, I understand you got to meet my son (he ended up doing play-by-play of the webcast) and sigfned a couple GOAL cards for him (and me). Too bad our little USL2 team couldn;t do better. Thanks!

That was your son, I wish he would have told me.  I was walking out and he just asked for me to sign to cards.  Next time have him tell me his is your son.

thanks
