Thanks for the memories in this thread. Given the list provided, I chose the Frings handball. Getting to a semi-final would have been huge for the...
I've been here a third of my life. I'm 60. :thumbsup:
Not sure I completely agree that recent US lineups are "smaller" than in the past (not that I want to dig up an infamous Big Soccer debate from...
I thought the TV crew said that Reyna was likely a pre-planned halftime sub. If true, then I understand. But the more standard switch would have...
Sports. Entertainment. Fun. :) And, Jedi!
Man, folks do like to complain about stuff... :) Without the percussion section, there would be zero atmosphere at this match.
True. And they have a really nice 4-player rotation of proven CBs who can all play the 3-CB system. Heck, they have the luxury of often having...
Thanks for the highlights link. So much of that game has already faded in my memories. But not Jones' cracker of a goal. Darned shame Jozy got...

4600+ posts. A lot of history in this thread...
Hopefully prime Musah is still coming! Agreed. Prime McKennie is here or close, since he is now age 25. Actually, McKennie and Bradley have...
Prime Bradley would compete with McKennie and Musa for minutes as a #8. He can't do the #6 as well as Adams or the #10 as well as Reyna. But he's...
My German-born father took me (age 10) and my brother on a family visit to Germany in the summer of 1974. We didn't see any WC games in person,...
Few teams will match up well to the Germans (or the Dutch) in size. But in general, we are fine there.
Probably. It's Nagelsmann's first roster and match, and there was some criticism in Germany about taking the team to the US. So I have no doubt...
Don't get the excessive complaining. This is a fairly entertaining friendly. We have a pretty talented XI out there, all of whom have experience...
How is there not at least 1 minute added there? Two goals and celebrations plus one sub in the last 15. There is almost always at least 1 minute...
US 6-0.
Is Berhalter adaptable/flexible enough to adjust to seemingly obvious things like Reyna is an effective #8? I am not thrilled with re-hiring him,...
Pending his future citizenship, does Luciano Acosta fit in here as a possible 5th (or 6th) depth guy. Surely more of a #10 (clearly not a #8 or a...
I totally get the sentiment. But I can't help but think of Steve Sampson back in the day... Not sure about keeping Callahan. Not pleased about...
Not sure where to put this news, but Klinsi is sort of an American......
Player passes for US Club, too. I can't update my roster with the new player or print his pass. League season starts in 10 days... Really gummed...
Cowell, Vazquez, and Zendejas definitely earned more looks. Obviously, Slonina is young, gifted, and worth seeing more of. Jones had a couple of...
What about 3.5 years? ;)
