US vs. Mexico: General Postgame Thread (R)

Jurgen news conference. How many US supporters Jurgen? it was broken down about the same as your percentage of possession. Asshole.

 

I felt like I was watching the team in the 90s again. What happened to proactive attacking soccer? And technical director building success in youth teams? Two HUGE failures today.

 

Klinsmann. "It was a good experience."

LOL . .

 

I think it's built on the fact that we keep doing better than you in qualifying. Head to head we've "won" the last 4 rounds. I may be wrong on this, but I think we've punched our ticket before you 4 times in a row, too.

 

I won't go great, but I'll stand by believing, with our player pool, he'd be better used in midfield.

 

Like usual, whenever there's a negative result, no sense of responsibility.

 

He sure is no Gregg Popovich.

 

"I think it was an open game until the very end" -- Klinsmann

"the game was very even" -- Klinsmann



Was he actually at this game? Can anyone confirm?

 

Fair enough. He was one of the better RB's in the WC, according to a few analysts.

 

He's an idiot. He's a complete idiot.

He's Lyle Lampley come to life.

 

Landon Donovan was the whole counter attack against Mexico. No more.

 

Meh, how many quality chances did Mexico have?

 

FJ asked off.

 

Speed kills, something that JK doesn't seem to appreciate from the get-go.

 

These reporters are asking only the easy questions.

 

I could not believe he didn't pull Jones and slide Johnson up to left mid. The only conceivable reason would be holding onto Jones for penalties.

 

Feilhaber set up a goal in that Spain match.

 

If only... that's a joke as cruel as this match was....

 

With pulled a black trifecta.

 

Fixed that for you.

 

Well, I assume he brought his bubble level and confirmed the playing surface was not off center.

No other explanation makes sense.

 

With a very clever touch, I might add.

The game is probably decided on a PK at the end of regulation if the referee had seen Besler's handball in the area.
