Need to get Weah the ball, but Bello is poor behind him and the midfield isn't doing the job. Don't think I've seen a decent pass to him at all so far.
My biggest question: why do the linesmen wait to raise their flag until after the play is complete if there’s no VAR?
Can someone explain to me why Moore went back to the keeper from near the midfield line, putting Turner under pressure?
And that's the problem with Turner. He only had to make that save because he misplayed the ball at his feet.
Turner is pretty bad with the ball at his feet. Being a great shot stopper makes up for it, but you have to avoid playing to him in pressure.
I’ll stand up as a Berhalter supporter. Am I stoked with what I see right now? Hell no. Is the game over? Not yet. Are we currently on top of the qualifying table. Yes.
This is the first game where Turner's bad technical ability has really created problems for our d. Thankfully he turned around to make key saves. He admittedly is not ideal as a keeper. Why I was tryin to make Horvath happen. But his stupid club decisions screwed that up. This is similar to the 1st half vs. Honduras. Maybe too much was made about individual performances & the formation. However, only 2 in cm was an issue. But a 352 I think would have worked fine, relative to this.
Neither center back is confident enough with the ball. Overall a very technically weak team trotted out by Gregg
USA consistent in their inconsistency. Side note, pretty cool of Panama to name their national stadium after Gen. Erwin Rommel.
