USA Players - World Cup Castrol Index Rankings

These are the Castrol Index ratings of all the US players who made an appearance at the 2010 World Cup. The US have 4 top 20 players at their respective positions overall (as of 6/28); Michael Bradley (5th best MF), Landon Donovan (7th best MF), Tim Howard (12th best GK), and Jozy Altidore (18th best FW).

I'll probably revisit these stats after the tournament ends to see where the USA players end up overall in the index. (somebody might need to remind me though, I'm pretty forgetful)
