  Kerry Zavagnin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kerry Zavagnin (born July 2, 1974 in Plymouth, Michigan) is an American soccer player, who currently plays defensive midfielder for the Kansas City Wizards of Major League Soccer, and sparingly for the US national team.
Zavagnin quickly established himself with the Wizards, playing 2743 minutes at midfield for a team that would both go on to win the MLS Cup, and was one of the best defensive teams in the league's history.
Zavagnin has remained an important contributor to the Wizards for the last four years, playing a quiet defensive role, and establishing himself as one of the better, though also one of the least recognized, midfielders in the league.

 MattMatros.com - Poker Strategy from Experience
He wasn't great, but he made enough positive things happen that I still think he should be in the mix for this roster, especially since Josh Wolff has been underwhelming, and he left this match early with an injury.
Zavagnin, with his dangerous passes, lack of aggression, and lack of vision, seems to do more harm than good when he's out there.
The defensive midfielder has to be a link between the defense and the offense, and although I admire how much work Kerry has done to improve his game, I don't think he's ready to contribute to a World Cup side at this point in his career.
