US Coach Gave Team a 'Talking To,' Howard Says “I played with three of their top players and I played against a lot of them in the English Premier League so they’re a tough team,” said Howard, a New Jersey native who played for Manchester United from 2003 to 2007.
“We’re a tough matchup for everybody and we feel like the way we’re playing right now, we’re going to give them a good game,” he said.

USA's Tim Howard ready to face 'top team' BelgiumAfter the Germany game, Klinsmann – who earlier in the week said the injured striker Jozy Altidore could be fit for the second round – said: “We still can do better.

Tim Howard: 'Mindblowing' support for U.S."The fact that it has really swept the nation is incredible for us as American players to see that," he told CNN.
"The interest has been mind-blowing and we've enjoyed watching every second of YouTube clips and Instagram and Twitter,"
"We've come so far in a short period of time. You know, the sport in our country really isn't that old," he added.
“Fekete”

Howard is certainly familiar with Fellaini, Lukuku and Mirallas.
