And so it begins...

Less than 48 hours after the announcement of the preliminary 30-man roster, Charlie Davies has spoken out in the media against Souchax president Alexandre Lacombe, claiming that he was unaware that his club was not going to give him medical clearance to play in the World Cup, and that he feels "very hurt, very sad" that his club went behind is back in that manner.

Davies' unshakable belief in himself is to be admired, and it is part of what makes him such a great goal-scorer. But in the end, he is the only person on that planet that has been consistently positive about his fitness level and his chances to be match-ready in time for the World Cup. Hopefully he will use this experience to become a better player, rather than letting a critical juncture in his career be defined by fighting and bad feelings between himself and his club.
