Cobi Jones And Eddie Pope Complete All Star Roster

The first XI was decided last week, and now the All Star roster is complete.

MLS All Star coach Steve Nicol added 5 players of his choosing, and then Don Garber added his two commissioner’s picks. Nicol choose Brian Ching, Landon Donovan, Ronnie O’Brien, Kevin Hartman and Pable Mastroeni. Don Garber choose Jones and Pope, both long time MLS stars who are retiring after this season.

Maybe they aren’t quite all stars this season, but Cobi Jones and Eddie Pope have served Major League Soccer for a long time and deserve a spot on this team.

The MLS All Stars will be facing Celtic at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park on July 19th.  The game will be televised on ESPN2 at 8:00 PM CST.
