With perhaps three games remaining before Coach Bruce Arena picks his 23 players for the 2002 World Cup, who to choose to try to put the ball in the net will be one question he must answer. The predatory prowess of Landon Donovan and Clint Mathis in 2002, along with the rugged, resolute work of Brian McBride, has given the U.S. front line attacking punch it lacked for most of the World Cup qualifying series the past two years. The U.S. has scored 14 goals in eight games in 2002. in 34 games, including four at the Gold Cup earlier this year. Here are the caps and goals for 12 attackers with the most playing time under Arena ranked by strike rate: Earnie Stewart 24/9 (.375 goals per game) Brian McBride 34/12 (.353) Clint Mathis 16/5 (.313) Joe-Max Moore 23/7 (.304) Ante Razov 20/6 (.300) Josh Wolff 14/4 (.286) Landon Donovan 17 games/4 goals (.235) Cobi Jones 41/6 (.146) Frankie Hejduk 22/3 (.136) Jovan Kirovski 28/3 (.107) Claudio Reyna 23/2 (.087) Eddie Lewis 35/3 (.086)
