Eryk Williamson has a sofascore of 7.10 so far for the gold cup...same as shaq moore fwiw. Acosta - 6.8 arriola 6.5 dike 7.13
do you think the offense under gb is good? they had 1 shot on goal vs Canada....Im not making it up. its facts. 1 shot on goal and he made no adjustments.
i couldnt watcht that game cuz it was 4am in the morning euro time.i did watch the highlghts. idk....an 87th minute goal to barely win...and some easy chances jamaica shouldve scored..... not sure I agree that the us played better. I dont think the players ggg has setttled on as his starters are actually the best group available from this poorly constructed roster...especially in midfield.
It's pretty obvious that Zardes + Roldan > Dike + Arriola And that's who we are going to see in the second half.
Well that sucked. Williamson for Lleget Zardes or Pefok for Dike Bello for Vines Halftime IV for Acosta
Dike just doesn’t have it in this tournament. It’s disappointing after what he did in the Championship. I was sure he was going to boss some center backs around. His touch isn’t good, and he hasn’t really been that aggressive. Honestly, I’d rather see Hoppe get some reps at the 9 with the A team. He could provide the best combo.
williamson and bello gotta be better too vines is a traffic cone that cannot dribble or move the ball forward AT ALL
“The System” is apparently pumping crosses into the box every chance you get. So we are a mid-90s bottom of the table Premier League team.
Qatar moves into and passes into space in a more sophisticated manner then the US. It's a systems issue.
Just got home from the game. Reactions. 1. First half play was so bad it killed attempts by the crowd to get going. The shaky passing and giveaways killed more than one cheer as it got going. 2. Sands seems way to shaky and tentative to rely on at CB. Second game in a row, but worse this time. Robinsons seems solid, and perhaps the contrast makes Sands look worse. 3. Ditto Moore and Vines, to a lesser extent. Moore looked dynamic and Vines seemed uncertain dealing with counter attacks. Hello war,Ed up but never came in. 4. Dike must have had 1/10 the touches of Hoppe, and his touches seemed heavy. I thought he should have given way at the half to Zardes or Pefok. He just seems not good. Hoppe tried stuff, showed for the ball, and was his usual wild and woolly self. I like that. 5. In the stadium it felt like a lot changed, momentum wise, after the missed PK. But perhaps the subs that came on after that had a lot to do with it. 6. Qatar and the center ref gave it all a very CONCACAF feel, even if not technically against a CONCACAF team. 9 minutes of added time? When all the stoppages were Qatar players flopping and staying down? 7. Kudos to the subs for making stuff happen, and for Zardes for finishing his chance. He was much, much better than Dike out there.
