Watching Howard the last month in MLS - that's exactly how awkward and slow he has looked reacting to anything which requires foot speed and agility beyond diving.
This is funny GOAL COSTA RICA!! MARCO URENA! And Los Ticos have a 1-0 lead at Red Bull Arena, 30' https://t.co/t7SSJ5dov1— SI Soccer (@si_soccer) September 1, 2017
That's as much on Cameron as Ream. Such terrible positioning, and it was neither the first nor fifth time tonight they were split like that.
Ream sucks. I told everyone walking in that he was a liability for this game. And I am directly in line with the angle of the goalscorer ... Howard had an AWFUL angle on that shot. He was clearly out of position.
He has looked so old since the injury in the match against Mexico. At some point, either he has to realize it or someone close to him has to tell him "it's time".
Oh dear......look at the CB positioning before the goal. #USAvCRC pic.twitter.com/FDi6QEwY7y— Cristian Nyari (@Cnyari) September 1, 2017
Let me say here what I cannot say on the IS boards ... Pulisic, outside a couple of nice dribbles, has been poor. Bad final passes, bad touches and poor shooting.
