    Adams thought Musah and Dest would sort out the extra man because USA had one man extra. So he is coming back in supportive role not a somebody has to take the open man role. But Musah and Dest don't sort it out until it's too late. Second Goal again Dest stays on his wing defending space. LVG, the Dutch coach who looked like a coach and not some dad at his kids soccer game, said "the USA didn't adjust to their game plan so it was easy to keep doing what worked".

    It is what pisses me off about him more. He looked like a divorced dad with custody of his kid on soccer game weekends.

    What about traffic deaths? Surely there is a statistic there that disqualifies the US from hosting the WC.

    There is also asking for a shot and a beer can result in a fatal misunderstanding! :cautious:

    We did. Donnie cut them off in 2019 because he didn't like Maduro.

    Wait, what?

    Everyone i know laughs at and mocks English coaches. I know I do.

    Also, comparing Berhalter to Biden is a serious insult to Biden.

    Berhalter or Biden?

    President Joe is pretty wooden when he walks.

    Possibly.

    But thinking of Southgate vs Berhalter in the Us-England match, who had the better performance?

    At the same time, what would England be if they had a competent, and non-English coach like a Van Gaal?

    English coaches suck, which is why most of the top EPL teams hire from the EU, and not from England.

    Placki Ziemniaczane was too difficult to remember and Golobki wasn't an option. I've mentioned before I grew up next to the Zezas back in the 40's and I got to experience every Polish delicacy known to man. Good times! :)

    Ps...Blue Seal Kielbasa by Chicopee Provision in Ma is the bomb! :thumbsup:

    Pps...Can't get it here. :(

    so your excuse is ‘some of my best friends’ are Polish?:)

    this is a soccer team… the Poles are called either the Polish National Team, the white and red, the Eagles or White Eagles

    but hey, don’t let me crowd your style ;)

    Kylian Mbappe is a sensational player. A real crack.
    As much as I want Messi & Argentina to win it all, this France team for me is the favorite.
    Specially with a Mbappe playing at this level.

    During the WC they've become unwatchable and for the games themselves I just have to watch in Spanish not because I think the play by play and commentary is better but because I don't understand it.
