Yep. I really can't think of any place I'd rather have a 21 year old CB continue to develop than a mid-table Bundesliga club. Great competition,...
Oh, there's certainly room for argument, but Pulisic has drained 2 pens in huge moments for both club and country in the last couple months. I...
3. Gio. Gio. 4. Gio. Gio. 5. CP. CP.
1. Yes 2. Variance
I'm sure we'll still try to do it a decent amount, but it seems like Berhalter's original vision has been pretty much abandoned. (For the better)
Eh, if guys like Ream and Lletget have that secret stuff that allows them to perform in high stakes international competition, certainly none of...
I would have made a couple different selections, but from a pure construction standpoint the roster makes sense. The biggest strength of this...
I believe statistically Pulisic has been more productive on the left in his club career than on the right. He can certainly play both sides...
I doubt he'll be first choice at any point this year on either side, but I wouldn't be surprised if Gladbach rotates a lot this year and he gets...
You never know how kids that young are going to develop over the years, but Cavan Sullivan is one of the most technically gifted players his age...
Would really like to see Leon Flach get an audition to be Adams’ back up at the 6.
He’s been rock solid today against a great team. Snuffed out multiple chances and been a pest in passing lanes. When he went to Bayern, ever...
You could tell Elgert didn’t when asked about Hoppe after his hat trick.
Schalke just cannot keep possession, and minus McKennie they’re now equally bad at winning it back.
Man, he just completely had his defender beat for a clean break again and his teammate didn’t play him through. He looks excellent off the ball.
I think so too- the supporting evidence being that he seems to have basically leapfrogged Kutucu very quickly after joining the team. Kutucu had...
The chip on the first goal was beautiful, but I think the best one was the third. if you watch his run, he starts fading outside, immediately...
Also, to point out how absurdly out of the blue and ridiculous this performance was, these are the teenagers over the last 5 years to have a hat...
Yeah, as a prospect his situation is interesting to say the least. He basically couldn’t get consistent minutes for the U23’s, but was promoted...
Havertz had 54 goals and assists his last two seasons playing against the same teams Gio is playing against. Acting like that is an insulting...
He’s the second most fouled player in the entire bundesliga right now and seems to be handling it fine.
Does anyone else see quite a few similarities between Gio and Havertz? Both kind of long, rangy AM’s that can also play winger. Plus athletes,...
I didn’t think he’d play much until I read Pirlo’s thesis right before the season. Not because I didn’t think he was a great player, but Juve had...
Gary also said Reyna was overrated and getting hyped because of his father about 6 months before he exploded at Dortmund. He’s an agent, and...
I really wish he’d have buried one of those chances but it was extremely reassuring seeing him get/create as many chances as he did against a team...
