24. Paul Caligiuri

The former UCLA Bruins star remains among the more underappreciated players within the history of this player pool. He scored several massive goals — including one that qualified the U.S. for its first World Cup appearance in 40 years. For over six years, Caligiuri cut his teeth playing abroad in Germany. It was here where he sharpened his skill tactically and technically. He became an indispensable member of the national team, functioning at a high level defensively both in the back and as a midfielder. Caligiuri finished his 14-year USMNT run with 110 caps.
