    And since Chivas' fans are mostly Mexican or some type of latin American, this doesn't make sense to me. He won't draw any crowds and Chivas really isn't a good team this year.

    Is it just me or is this game feeling like it's going to be anti-climactic like what we first thought back in July?

    The positives are that we are Findley trying something different.

    I realize it will take some time for our style to change but all we are doing defensively is trying to stay behind the ball. We are giving them all the space they need. Not pressuring them in their own end. Yet they are all over us in our defensive third. It sucks really.

    Harkes is an idiot... as soon as the goal is scored he starts making excuses about who's not in the team. Klinsmann has only two MLS players in his starting lineup (Donovan and Beckerman), everyone else is based either in Europe or Mexico. This is a strong US squad.

    Glad to see Beckerman on the team... classy classy player.

    True. Harkes is brutal. So many generic comments, no real analysis. I'm so sick of hearing him take up for the US players like a butthurt mom. Also, if he says someone is doing "well" one more time, I'm going to hurl. Too bad this douche is one of the voices of US soccer.

    Bradley needs to stay further up the pitch.
    I'm impressed with the crisper play, but attack.

    Have to change the formation at half. This is pretty hard to watch.

    Rome wasn't built in a day, I want them to stick with it. Maybe player change, but the formation should stay.

    Bradley gets the ball and looks for a pass without moving up.

    Been very impressed with Beckerman. He's done quite well.

    me too was surprised so many people wrote off players that didn't really work out well in BB system. A lot of those players were never given full range to show what they had.

    beckerman has looked real solid

    Formation is not doing anything at all. Torres is not handling his position well at all, and Castillo is not bringing ANYTHING moving forward. Donovan isn't able to do much of anything, and Bradley ain't pulling any strings. Look at those friggin' stats. Jesus.
