PBP: International Friendly: USA vs Mexico; September 6th

Soft penalty but Morris did, sort of, get fouled. OF course Sargent screws it up.

 

Yeah, he had ideas/abilities beyond trying to beat four players on the dribble or just fouling someone. That's mostly what our heavy hitters have brought tonight.

 

Yea too bad we just had to have a coach who speaks english

 

Brutal on Target cause I like the kid but that was a poor Penalty

 

Damn Morales been our best player.

 

So, am I to assume that Berhalter thinks Brooks isn't better than Long or Zimmerman? Is he too good at passing the ball to be useful for a team who is clearly trying to play out of the back? What a clown.

 

Sargent doing an excellent job of getting Gregg Berhalter fired ASAP!

 

I've been watching the MNT since 2001. I've seen us beat Mex, seen them beat us, seen some ties. And the only times we got beat this bad were the two gold cup finals in 09 and 11. The first was because we were playing all second-stringers since the A team had gone to the Confeds Cup. The second was a fiasco that got the coach fired.

So this isn't our worst performance against Mexico since 2000, but it's not far off. And worse, it's coming after we lost the GC final at home against them. That should have (1) given us a chip on our shoulder to come out and kick some ass and (2) some notion of how to adjust to do better than we did in that earlier game.

I don't know what to say, man. It's hard to see a result like this and keep the faith. There just seems to be a lack of skill and heart. I hope I'm wrong.

 

The funny thing is who gives a <expletive>! He’s a shot stopper, he’s not a distributor, let him do what he does best and play safe in the god damn back. How many horror show moments has he had in the back since June alone? How many best XI’s did he make in Germany in the first 3 weeks. He’s superb if we use him right and a dung heap w/legs when we don’t. So what does Beerholder do? Insist on playing him in dungheap mode of course. Just an epic grand mal moron of a coach.

 

Nah...it will be the players that will make the coaching change.

If this shit show continues, the players will give up on the coach.

 

Shut up, Stu. Please, shut up before our soccer media composed of parrots picks up on your nonsense and repeats it non-stop, "BRAAWWWK - PULISIC AFRAID TO TAKE PENALTIES - BRAWWWWK - DOESN'T HAVE THE PASSION - BRAAAWK"

 

I think he is done with USMNT.

 

So I take it that Trasholder will get a contract extension before the start of the World Cup which we won’t even be a part of im assuming?

 

Would have been nice to see him on the same field with a healthy John O’Brien, as well.

 

Pulisic is tired.

 

He's injured.

 

I feel bad for Morales, dude actually cares, and in his role could play a good part. Looks like a muscle injury, hope its not a torn quad. He is better than Trapp and Bradley and him playing shown that tonight. Hopefully he isn't hurt.

 

Mexico has better players. And the better coach. Nothing has changed in a few months lol.

Would like a.new coach though. Gregg is out of his depth. A lot of apologists in the media on my Twitter feed.

 

If I was Pulisic, I'd seriously reconsider playing under GB.

 

I wonder if Pulisic will ever get to play in a world cup

 

He won't, but the players will.

All it takes is for Pulisic, Weston, and Adams to refuse callups.

 

If we fire Berhalter who can we get? I see Maradona is no longer available, sadly.

 

That wasn't "soft". The ref knew exactly what the cb was doing. Straight pen.

 

I’d pay good money to have a live feed of Lalas during matches.

 

Which all goes back to the coach.

Ernie can’t be that blind.

 

Pulisic is kicking his ass right now that he didnt play for Croatia

 

and that sums up the night with a Reggie Cannon miscommunication.

 

and thaaaaat, is PERFECT closure to this game LOL
