OT: Discusión del Fútbol (EPL, FIFA, LIGA, USMNT, USWNT, MLS, etc) - Parte Cinco

[CapitalsCupReality]

Sounds like Gio isn’t in the starting XI. If he’s not subbed on by minute 55 or 60 and they’re tied or losing Gregg should be fired before the Iran match. Dude is straight terrible at game management.

Prove me wrong, GB.

If by some miracle we win (we won’t), you’ll admit you GB was right?

 

[Ajax1995]

I don‘t get them at all…..they look lost out there.

Their game plan seemed to be pass it around the back 5 and de Jong while rarely if ever passing it forward and if you do pass it forward the aim is to immediately turn it over and watch Ecuador break with pace the other. And whatever you do never, and I mean never, show for the ball. And don’t try to make better angles for someone to pass it to you either, they can pass it backwards instead.

I know right?! I was watching them do that over and over….It was like 4 corners in BB lol….killing clock from the start.

 

[John Price]

Free Gio

 

[Ajax1995]

We do a very underwhelming singing of the anthem again. Boo…

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Here’s hoping it’s a competitive game. A win would be great but…

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

That was close.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

The Boys can’t afford too many turnovers against The 3 L’s.

 

[hb13xchamps]

Not a fan of the sit back and play defense game plan. Don’t think this formation plays to their strengths

I don’t think they have much of a choice but to play for the counter. Our best need to play like it for us to have a chance.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

If you have a hair style like that you have to score there.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Pulisic put a dent in that goal post.

Why doesn’t he play at Chelsea?

Because we have like 2 squads of world class talent.

England playing scared. Pulisic, MK, Dest, Weah…rise to the occasion boys!

 

[hb13xchamps]

Tide seems to be turning. They finally settled down and are playing well.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Very promising 1st half. The Boys held their own. ENG forced to clutch and grab a lot because the US is the quicker/faster team.

 

[AlexModvechkin8]

I gave GB full credit for his starting XI vs Wales. Thought he picked the best possible roster… then he went and f***ed it all up with his terrible game management and substitutions.

I would love nothing more than for Gregg to make me eat crow. I’ll eat it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner — gladly!

 

[John Price]

Good half. Let's keep that kind of energy in the 2nd because we are not doing that poorly

 

[AlexModvechkin8]

Really encouraging first half but they had a really encouraging first half vs Wales and then crashed and burned between minutes 55 and 60. Gregg really needs to keep his finger on the pulse. I’d sub out Haji after the first 10 minutes or so with Gio and put in Aaronson for McKinnie if he starts to labor again. If he has to take out Dest put in Scally.

Let’s go boys it’s there for you!

 

[Ajax1995]

I don’t think it is a coincidence that the the US is having joy down their right side against the ManUre duo of Shaw and Maguire.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Adams with the beastly tackle in his own box….

How are England not getting carded?

 

[hb13xchamps]

That’s Mount’s 3rd or 4th hard foul. Pull out a card, Jesus Christ

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

I’d like to see 13 for USA subbed out.

 

[AlexModvechkin8]

Gregg, do something. And get Gio Reyna on the f***ing field.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Ohhhhhh crap Greg….

 

[Raikkonen]

I don‘t get them at all…..they look lost out there.

I see week roster first and foremost. Who are these guys for NL? Far from contending.
