Just when Preki signed on as coach of Chivas USA, I'd asked him about John O'Brien and his chances of returning to the squad. Preki seemed pretty optimistic, mentioning that O'Brien looked ready to participate in preseason training to prove his fitness.
I'd also sighted Johnny O myself around the HDC complex, though I didn't get to talk to him. He was working, I understood, with the Athlete's Performance gurus who helped bring him back to fitness before, the year John participated in the Gold Cup.
On top of that, there was news out of New York that Bruce Arena was interested in his services - I started to think we'd actually see John play a full game in MLS this year. Doesn't look like it though, as now Preki says O'Brien's not fit to practice.
