Klinsmann "surprised" by Guzan snub

USA head coach Jurgen Klinsmann has admitted that he was "surprised" by Aston Villa manager Tim Sherwood's decision to drop goalkeeper Brad Guzan for Saturday's FA Cup final against Arsenal at Wembley.

Sherwood played second-choice keeper Shay Given throughout the tournament and opted to stick with the Irishman for the final, which Villa <a href="/football/arsenal/fa-cup/result/result-arsenal-thrash-villa-to-win-record-12th-fa-cup_225615.html">lost 4-0</a> to the Gunners.

Despite the snub, Klinsmann has insisted that he will start Guzan for the USA in next month's CONCACAF . . .
