    When you don’t follow those late runs you will lose. Adams with the first one and Dest with the second.

    Gio Reyna is about to go off.

    and make Gregg look like an idiot.

    I’ll say it: if Reyna isn’t a half time sub it’s because Gregg doesn’t want to expose himself to the above.

    Defense picked the worst time to be absolute garbage. Just pass it to the dot every time nobody is there apparently

    Thought they played well other than no one can cross and they had no answer up front. 2-0 and time to get on with my day. At least it won't be 120 mins. No way this US team has two goals against the Dutch in them. At least Berhalter won't be around for the next cycle.

    That's probably all she wrote.
    We probably went out when we were supposed to. I think Greg rode his best horses a little to hard in the group and the guys are tired. We can't win second balls, we've been sloppy and the Dutch have been tactically and technically superior.

    26 is looking bright we just need more depth everywhere, a our best CBs and a real S.

    We're done. We have no creativity in or around the box. No legs, no finishers.

    Yep, US has a scoring problem so no way we’re gonna score two in one half.

    I’ll take the 4-0 loss instead of some 2-1 moral victory loss if it means getting rid of Berhalter. This is as far as he can take us.

    I remember watching Blind's dad-deh doing work like that at the old De Meer ground. I'm so damn old....like Greggg's lineup decisions.

    Ok. That’s over. Carbon copy of the first goal.


    US just brushed aside here.

    not changing any perceptions here.

    boy, this was what the Berhalter critics were predicting.


    Berhalter’s strength was supposed to be defense. The Dutch are tight and organized. The US is not.

    Same pass, same spot, same goal.

    They knew exactly how amd where to attack.

    Reyna and Aaronson need to be on at the half, not the 80th min.

    I knew I should be concern when Van Gaal gave praises to 3G and taking him up during his presser.

    The good news is that there is only 45 minutes left in the Berhalter era.

    The era of soccer terrorism that he has given us is over, and that's the only positive of today

    Is Berhalter going to wait for the third to put Reyna in?

    Dutch with more quality, the US tired and bereft of ideas.
    JF a poor choice it turns out. I thought so, but was hoping for more.
    Yes, that second goal was a killer.

    Yep. Knowing Greg, Acosta, Shaq Moore, and another 7 minute appearance of Gio Reyna should save the day....

    We may end up losing by 5, but we gotta clear the bench and go for it. Reyna at half. I'm not even sure who to take off. I guess Mckennie?
