Here’s a bullet-point rundown of USA players whose clubs were in action this weekend (Saturday and Sunday). Players are divided by position groups (which helps my depth-chart-oriented brain to process this information most usefully). Stats are from FotMob.

Strikers

Patrick Agyemang remains out with his Achilles tendon injury and was not with Derby for their 2-2 draw with Cardiff on Saturday. He is expected to return in early September.
Damion Downs was not in Southampton’s squad for their 3-1 win over Stoke City on Saturday.
Charlie Kelman was not in Charlton’s squad for their 2-1 win over West Ham on Saturday.
Josh Sargent (26) played 77 minutes, scored the opening goal, completed 1/1 dribble, and won 7/10 duels in Toronto FC’s 2-1 win over Inter Miami in MLS on Saturday. He was rated Man of the Match by FotMob.
