To be fair, most of those people pictured are 12-16 years old. They were all brainwashed and controlled by a system that psychologically mulched...
1-1. Why didn't Acosta eat the yellow card in transition? That would have been a good time to foul.
The USA could have frozen Mexico out of a WC bid had they played like Mexico did tonight. I don't like seeing talented teams take that much off...
2-0 Canada, and El Salvador have 10 men. Come on Mexico, give Canada a shot at a WC.... ....please?
Canada have 45' to hit two more goals. They needed to be 2-0 up at HT. A red card could save them, actually.
Miazga is going to be one of many young players that will wrongly get the shaft at Chelsea. There have been about a dozen kids that are just as...
As far as the US youth is concerned, things will likely take a drastic turn for about half of our youth pool. If Klinsmann takes the England job...
If Goff is right - that Klinsmann had agents plant a story to get him the England job - then I'm done with him. His coaching can be debated, but...
Please compare the weapons that the USA has with what Germany has. In fact, it's kinda embarrassing in a few positions. Klinsmann has flaws,...
The thing that I've learned about the USA is that the guys we don't hype are the ones that actually make it into the side. Pulisic is the...
Everything in theory is a one-off event. We just try to control as many variables as possible in order to find trends. Scientific experiments do...
Elo ratings that I've seen set the USA in the mid 20s right now. Of course they're not a predictor of future results, though. It's a power...
The thing is, the USA - at #31 - just scored wins over #23, #13 (!), and #44 (and yes, Paraguay are badly underrated). #1 Argentina SHOULD trash...
I like JK, but if he's courting England then just let him walk. He's meeting expectations considering players available, but not much more. If...
He needs a pile of starts so that he toughens up a LOT and can be integrated into the USA XI. We're in need of a good CM.
We have players that half-arsed this whole tournament. It would be disturbing if Colombia lost this game on the balance of what Pekerman has...
I actually didn't mind this game. The tactics were acceptable, they just were better technicians and manufactured the result. 0-1 was fair....
Orozco is dumb. The smart player gets a light headbutt and flops on the ground and wins an 11v10 situation. He's not a smart player, so he does...
First time I've ever heard that chant on goal kicks. I hope we never play there again. Clearly the people in that stadium lack manners. Our...
OK, let's play devil's advocate here: 1. WHO are you paying off? 2. How can you afford to do it? These players are all very very rich -...
USA has an Elo of 22, and a FIFA ranking in the 20s. That's around the middle of this field. http://eloratings.net/copa_america.html Mexico,...
The only way we will know is if we combine the confederations. We'd be bringing 3.5 (!) bids with us. Would SA be able to steal one bid a...
In this copa, the USA eliminated two decent SA sides and got smashed by two top ones. That tells me we'd be right on the WC cutline in SA.
It's nor rigged. Argentina is better than everyone else and we played a bunch of has beens. It's not shocking to see the run end here.
I hope Klinsmann takes a chainsaw to this current pool. Only about of third of these players will amount to enough. I'm OK with us bloodying...
