    I'll be there...I'm in Chicago for work. As an FYI; Demebele was an unused sub throughout this WC.

    No, there's the transfer market to watch.

    Although my bet has always been that Puli stays put.

    You realize they are intertwined right? And that's literally why we had a YA forum? This entire forum is meant to track American's club careers abroad, how those players would impact our national team, which is a combination of MLS and European based players.

    It is ridiculous to go out of your way to completely divorce the two. It's one thing to avoid a debate on Pulisic would have been amazing in the WC if not for Bruce Arena and Michael Bradley - it's quite another to look at how Pulisic is used at Dortmund and then wonder how that would translate onto the USMNT.

    You can not remove the "Yank" from "Yank Abroad"

    I agree with you: you can’t divorce the two. Discussion of how his club career impacts the NT is a completely legitimate topic of discussion. In my opinion, that is not how the most recent discussion was shaping up, hence the reminder.

    I could’ve phrased it better, for sure. I’m still new to this moderating gig. :)

    I'm sure we could fill the time discussing how tall he is.
     
  14. In comparison to the Dutch or which people? You know they think we Dutch are that tall because ....
    and the repeat of the pages long discussion about length, genes and nourishment starts again in 9-8-7-...:D

    Yup, this could well cover the gap until the next match:sneaky:

    What about epigenetic factors? Maybe Hersey is a poor environment to capitalize on his genetic potential and healthy diet.
    Opine please

    First we have to establish exactly how tall he is using photos of him with other people of unconfirmed height.

    He gets his video in US Soccer's RISING series:

     
  18. These work in our advantage, with our dairy (= cheese) consumption. We are among the 6 happiest people on earth with the difference between those 6 being negligable. Those other 5 also are taller than most of the earthlings.
    The Happiness Index gives these scores:
    Het allergelukkigste land is volgens de Happiness Index niet meer Noorwegen, maar Finland. Maar eigenlijk is er heel weinig verschil tussen de scores van de bovenste zes landen. Dat zijn, naast Noorwegen en Finland, Denemarken, IJsland, Zwitserland en Nederland. In al die landen gaat het op vrijwel alle gebieden zeer goed. Finland, de koploper, scoort 7632 punten; Nederland 7441.

    google translate:
    The happiest country according to the Happiness Index is no longer Norway, but Finland. But actually there is very little difference between the scores of the top six countries. These are, in addition to Norway and Finland, Denmark, Iceland, Switzerland and the Netherlands. In all these countries it is doing very well in almost all areas. Finland, the leader, scores 7632 points; Netherlands 7441.

    The real question is if Pulisic would have been a sub or started opposing him for Croatia.

    Does that mean he’s still growing? Will make it harder to figure out how tall he is.

    How tall are the cleats? That could through off a height comparison if the other didn’t have any on or one is in grass and the other is in the jogging track.
    Do we have any photos of McKennie and Pulisic in low earth orbit? That would ensure even spinal compression and a more accurate measurement

    He'd have started against Iceland for sure.
