USA National Team Thread

as soon as I saw which team was wearing red, my concerns disappeared ...

 

[MaestroZidane]

I love this result, it was not pretty, but a win is a win and I'll take it.

You forgot John Anthony Brooks

when USA play Ghana at the World Cup: Team in Red 2, Team in White 1 ...

 

[jimorrison]

probably why they chose that red yugoslavian kit for the world cup, lol.

maybe Mexico can do it tomorrow vs brazil in their red charlie brown kit.

USA cannot dominate possession against the better sides. Everyone calling for us to attempt it are asking for us to lose.

Possession is overrated

 

[MaestroZidane]

Just ask Bayern and Barca

we don't need barca type possession but enough to keep us from always being
on the defensive.

if all we're going to do is play on the counter we better get faster.

i'd like to see this formation and starting 11 from our side.

Dempsey

Zusi Bradley Bedoya

Jones Beckerman

Yedlin Besler Gonzalez Johnson

Howard​

Possession is overrated

possession keeps the ball out of your own goal.

 

[Mus]

Having possession also makes it harder to score

What was up with Bradley? He was terrible.

 

[Bobby]

Felt like Ghana zoned in on him. Would explain why Jones had the space he did.

 

[Xifio]

Pepe out, Coentrão out, Rui Patrício out (though this doesn't seem to be a bad thing? someone fill me in pls), and Cristiano not looking 100% ...

Klinsmann better be smelling blood ...

I don't think Ghana marked him out of the game ... he was disconcertingly mishitting straightforward passes even when not under immediate pressure ...

 

[MaSsiVe]

Rui Patrício out (though this doesn't seem to be a bad thing? someone fill me in pls)

I've said it before, Beto is the best keeper we have and should've been our starter.
Patrício is becoming an expert at assisting the opponents, especially with his clumsy feet.

 

[Filipower]

Eduardo will start though. But yeah the problem's not in goal anyway with Patrício out.

 

[MaestroZidane]

Ronaldo should just rest himself, Other wise if he's not 100%, he's risking further injury and we need a 100% healthy Ronaldo at Madrid.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Draw tomorrow and biscotto vs. Germany. Get it done Klinsman

[MaestroZidane]

I'll settle for the draw as well. Although a win will be better against Ronaldo

Hoping for a US thrashing, but if it doesn't happen...


Concacaf represent!
