All the player assessment is legit, and this was only a friendly, but still: The u23s came storming back to tie an absolutely stacked France team...
He wasn't fouled, he was assaulted. The play resulted in not just in Claudio's exit from the game, but pretty much a career-ending injury (he...
Yep I was there for all three games. The only WC we played in where we failed to qualify for the knockout rounds since 1998 and that was the one I...
Agreed on Richards. He was OK, a little better than vs Jamaica. Miles was poor against Jamaica. Ream was immense, but he's long in the tooth. All...

You'd think so, right? Guy I was talking to who knows Forest better than me said the problem is that Gio's a backup for their best player and that...
We didn't play that well but we still beat Mexico comfortably. Not sure I've ever said that before. It's a testament to both how much our talent...
Same. We've not played well for a solid year, and most recently were shite-minus against a Jamaica team missing five of its better players....
How was my post complimentary of Berhalter? I said that the MNT's success in those few games came despite not because of him. My take is only that...
In terms of forward, I think it's worth giving the Gio/Balo connection another shot at the start. If it doesn't work, or even if it does, we have...
Agoos was a really good defender for the MNT until he somehow managed to have one of the worst world cups in living history in 2002. That has...
This game was like going on a long-awaited supposedly fun vacation, then getting food poisoning and having it rain til the last day, then all of a...
All true, plus that either Jedi or Richards could have better defended the throw/cross. Not sure about the observation that Turner should have...
This is a big, big part of what's wrong with this team. Set pieces used to be a central part of our offensive plan. Now they seem an afterthought....
If they play like they did against Jamaica, they'll lose. That's obvious. But unlike Jamaica, Mexico is (almost certainly) not going to sit in a...
