PBP: U.S. vs. Trinidad and Tobago (8 EST)

Wow, just catching up. Least critical BS game day thread ever. Until page 5.

 

Why the blue hell is Bradley taking corners with Sacha on the field?

 

Or Pulisic for that matter.

He's taken them for BVB.

 

The schedule for them is better if they finish second, actually. They shouldn't really care about winning this one.

 

Olympico hope?

 

Bradley already looks like he doesn't belong on the field. He is aways in rhe wrong place and chasing the play

 

If they win, they get the confidence of beating a better team on the road in qualifying. If they lose they get a favorable Hex schedule. Win/win

 

St. Vincent and the Grenadines just took the lead in case anyone was worried

 

Zardes' enjoying game

 

Stuart Holden is a terrible commentator.

 

Winning is fun though.

 

Because he tries to score himself at least half the chances he takes.

 

Why are we defending at home versus a Trinidad that doesn't need anything from this game?

Ah well. Let's not be critical. Even if with 30% possession, we manage the W usually.

 

His wife handed him one of the kids and the kid bounced 4 feet away. #firsttouch

 

I hate that I laughed.

 

He was always like that, in my opinion. The difference is that now he doesnt seem to catch up.

 

We look pretty flat so far to be honest. Trinidad is passing it around us much better than I would have thought possible.

 

Central midfield is our weakness right now. Can't gain control.

 

Since there's absolutely 0 at stake, Trinidad and Tobago can take a few more risks than they can in a usual away match against the US.

 

Bradley:Wayne Rooney.

Discuss.

 

Yeah. Let's go with that one.

 

And they tied it up.

 

Did Klinsmann just yell at the ref about the Jamaica game?

 

Why is it such a struggle to get a final pass to one of, you know, our guys in the final third?

 

I think he did. Something like "does this go back to the Jamaica game?"
