The United States 23-man team for the World Cup has been determined and the U.S. is expected to make some noise in world cup 2010 probabilities.

How the United States does in World Cup gambling may be based on their starting match vs England.

There are several familiar names on the 23-man roster that United States coach Bob Bradley detailed on Wednesday.

These were defenders Heath Pearce and Chad Marshall; midfielders Alejandro Bedoya, Sacha Kljestan and Robbie Rogers; and forwards Eddie Johnson and Brian Ching.

Eight of the players have been playing in England, three in Germany, 2 in Scotland, and one particular in Italy, France, Norway and Denmark.
