Your MLS All-Stars

The MLS All-Star squad is now full as coach Peter Nowak and MLS Commissioner Don Garber have made their additional picks for the team.

They were suppose to only add 7 players to the roster, but since three players from the All Star First XI will not be able to play*, Nowak added three others.

Here are the ten new All Stars:

Goalkeeper
Joe Cannon (Colorado Rapids)

Defender
Bobby Boswell (DCU)

Midfielders
Freddy Adu (DCU) and Josh Gros (DCU)**, Richard Mulrooney (FC Dallas), Ronnie O'Brien (FC Dallas) and Pablo Mastroeni (Colorado Rapids)**

Forwards
Alecko Eskandarian (DCU), Nate Jaqua (Chicago), Brain Ching (Houston)**

Here is the First XI list that fills out the squad.

Goalkeeper
Troy Perkins (D.C. United)

Defender
Jimmy Conrad (Kansas City Wizards), Chris Albright (Los Angeles Galaxy), Eddie Pope (Real Salt Lake)

Midfielders
Dwayne De Rosario (Houston Dynamo), Landon Donovan (Los Angeles Galaxy), Christian Gomez (D.C. United)

Forwards
Jaime Moreno (D.C. United)

It is a shame that players voted to be on the team will not be due to scheduling problems. Still, it will be a good team on the pitch for the MLS.

* Forward Ante Razov (Chivas USA) and Midfielders Clint Dempsey (New England) and Shalrie Joseph (New England) cannot play because of a MLS game the next day.

** Selected as a replacement for one of the above three players
