Ugh. Just not true. Even though I love you. From seeing him up close, he was worse than I imagined. Sometimes, you don't appreciate how good someone is until you seem them live. JJJ is a great example. Zusi is an example of how you don't see how poor someone is until it's live.
Who played better last night? I am the most ardent foe of Zusi at RB or anywhere near this team for that matter. From my living room perspective, he played with a level of calm and professionalism no one else showed.
I just can't ever give him credit. He had some stupid beatings suffered right in front of me. And his positioning is so ignorant. It's like a 12 year old who forgot his Ritalin is controlling him. Btw: only because it's you that said it am I open to reconsidering. Only for that one night. He still shouldn't be in the squad.
He almost single handedly neuters Pulisic since he doesn't have the athleticism to bomb up the flanks and overlap. His touch is poor, he can't ever beat anymore 1v1, and for all the talk about his great delivery, how many crosses does he ever get off? He's a damn anchor whenever he plays
Don't reconsider. I discovered a good Polish beer at Whole Foods for only $6 for four pints so I've basically been shitfaced since the game. Praising Zusi was a form of self-flagelation.
Yeah, this thread looks like it's going pear-shaped. If it does, I hope it ends up looking like this Polish Pear
By no means the best beer I've ever had but more than OK for the price. I have an affinity for the standard European "bionda" that you can get in any bar such as the Peronis, Cruz Campos, Budvar, etc. Here in the US the closest I have been able to get are from the pint cans. That is why I was thrilled to find this O.K. Beer. 5.5% alc. and only 5 something for a 4 pack.
Polish beer is seriously undervalued, especially for the quality. I've spent most of the last 30 years in Eastern Europe and I've had many, many Polish pints. I've never, ever, had a bad one.
This reminds me of what a college buddy said about sex: "There's only 2 kinds of sex, good and better. The worst I ever had was wonderful."
