26th minute, Bedoya took his typical crap shot from far away instead of passing the ball out wide for the wing to make a cross or otherwise keep possession in the final third. I think Zusi is a better decision maker / passer / scorer. The argument for Bedoya is a defensive argument.
Bedoya did have that nice break where he made space with a header to himself then eventually found AJ in space near the goal. I'm not against Zusi starting, I just think we'll need Bedoya's hustle to help out defense against Portugal. Because Jozy is hurt there's likely another spot available in the attack which I could see Zusior Mix sliding in to.
Not to take anything from Suzi, Bedoya was a gem tonight specially with Bradley playing like he did when his dad was in charge. If Bradley does not pull it together for the next game I doubt we get out of the group. If there is anybody in this team that can not be replaced is Bradley.
You can make all the arguments you want (with statistics) but Bedoya did little to warrant his replacement. So unless we change the alignment to where Zusi would be an ideal fit, he will remind a "super sub."
I'm a big fan of Zusi in CONCACAF, but against the big guys, he just seems much much more limited. Good all around player though; not bad. His play reminds me of my brother's too.
