So is Israel. And what the hell has Romania been doing to climb up to 14?

In all seriousness, what is our record in a 10 game series with Israel?

Can't blame em. Even people in the USA don't have a fricking clue what Klinsi is doing.

I was waiting to see who the first person to take FIFA rankings as a judge of the USMNT and Klinsmann's talent would be.

Glad we knocked that out quickly.

Doesn't FIFA use them to determine the top seeds at the World Cup?


I had hope we could continually climb and be in the top 10.

Still have a solid 3 years to climb. And unless you're in the top 7, it doesn't matter.

Portugal too high. Belgium over Columbia a case could be made. They could have made a run to the final at the WC with Benteke in the lineup.

Amazing we could have made it to the round of 8 if wondo doesn't botch that gimme in extra time

Thats what I thought. We were 5th one time and it didn't matter although there may be a logical explanation as to why we weren't seeded.


I hate being a consistent top 15 team every cup. We climb all the way up there then get put back around 20-30 afterwards to repeat the process.

Not a hater, just not clear about what we are doing with our national team.

I guess it gets to that point with every manager but I personally thought things would be more clear at this point.

Look beyond the national team. Look at the youth structure. That is where he is changing the culture.
