Vlatko should never have been hired in the first place, and probably should have been let go before the cycle.

The USWNT is a shell of it's former self. They won their money in the court of...

Carli called it out. The team used to be about winning and dominating soccer. Now the team is just about social justice, branding, and wokeism. The leftist celebrities were tiktok dancing before the...

EXACTLY...

This team has individual talent...Pulisic, Reyna, and Balo (could go down as the best striker in USMNT history), but they need to be allowed to play. Berhalter ball is a rigid,...

Our federation is a joke.

rehiring Berhalter was a lame decision made by incompetent leadership.

So our WC 2022 Roster is shaping up.

Starters that are locked in:

Wingers: Pulisic (23), Weah (21)
Midfield: McKennie (23), Adams (22), Reyna (19)
Fullbacks: Dest (21), Robinson (24)...

GGG gets credit because he played the best lineup this time.

He doesn't get credit because he still calls up Lleget and Arriola like they are serious options for their positions. His favorite...

The MMA midfield is solid, but it could be better.

I think it has to be MRA (with Reyna in place of Musah)

Aaronson and Pulisic and Weah are our wingers.

Pepi has to grow in 9 spot.
...

Weah with that assist to Pulisic was a thing of beauty. He drew TWO Mexican defenders on him and crossed the ball with ease.

Nobody step into the cross until Pulisic banged that header in.
...

The midfield drop from Weston, Adams, and Musah is staggering.

Lleget, Acosta are awful. Lleget never tried a single ball forward. He shouldn't see a usmnt uniform again which means he will be...

Berhalter still sucks.

pathetic performance.

plays a bunch of mls scrubs, and they look like mls scrubs. Pathetic.

Great win in a must win game.

Some thoughts:
1. Pepi is our 9. For now he is getting it done, and he’s only 18! Saw somewhere that the first goal was ALL players U20! That is incredible. Talk...

Next day thoughts:

When Pulisic came off it was a spark for us. I think too often Berhalter is trying to run the offense through him. It doesn’t work. Then he gets 2v1 and he can’t handle it. When...

The Good:
Tyler Adams is a good central midfielder. He played all the games and ran for 270 minutes with limited rest. Probably the most impressive player at this point. Definitely the real captain...

there is raw talent there. Weston has raw talent. Not a single brain cell, but there is talent. Adams has been impressive and has a feel for the game. Matt Turner is becoming a legit replacement for...

71% possession last night with only 1/3 being on the opponents side.

Telling. No plan. No leadership.

Aimless passing and wandering.

Read an article this morning that was telling.

There is individual raw talent there, but this talent just hasn’t been developed. These players have no sense of identity or grit or determination....

Berhalter = Skip Holtz.

He’s clearly clueless about soccer as a coach.

Two matches in and he doesn’t have a clue what’s wrong. Horrible formations. No plan. Subs way too late.

I hope you are...

Reyna I get. Yeah he was decent. Robison and Ream were mostly solid on defense tracking.

McKennie? Seriously? The guy was lost. Really bad missed passes. Our midfield was awful at holding. Dest...

That was about the ugliest uninspired play I’ve ever seen. Seen better high school play. Just pathetic, lack luster.

They let El Salvador have their way with them like yet were scared. Concacaf...

USMNT - showed great depth with some young raw talented players. Now develop them some more!

That should have been a red on Herrera (high kick, cleats out, automatic red). These concaf joke of...

I watched that match. In the overtime our players were slow made sloppy passes. The USWNT midfield holding was non existent. We lost the ball multiple times. The experience paid off in penalties, but...

The sub of the match was Hoppe for Gioacchini.

Hoppe was struggling. He came off and yelled at Berhalter and Berhalter grew a pair and told him to sit his self down and shut the f up.
...

The rest of the world caught up. Our development should have been better.

but Lloyd, Rapinoe, and Morgan are getting older. Probably too old to compete at this level anymore.

as I said. The...

Netherlands will trounce them.

USNWT is now done.

Needs a reboot. Too many old guard. Very few new development. They are the oldest team at the olympics. Other WNT are younger, stronger,...

No Zimmerman the rest of the tournament is concerning.

We were already playing B/C players, now we are stretching into D levels. :icon_mad:
