Kash, you need to start a Bradley GIF thread with all his derps.

yedlin is pigeon holed into the wingback role..because of his speed and lack of ball control talent by other US players.
they have to rely on him catching speedsters....then running the sides to move the ball forward because our trash mids can't move the ball forward on their own.
best players were clearly Yedlin and Fab Johnson...it's the only ones that our opponents seemed to respect.
US employed the strategy I saw with nearly every Team Africa. Kick ball down and have speed guys run to it.......no one has ball skills....but at least they all have speed to compensate. The US needs to get rid of anyone who is either "not fast" or "can't 1 vs 1".....pointless to waste roster spots on mediocre garbage.

I use instagif and need the games on youtube to make them.....but no one has hosted it.
I would love to because a picture is worth a 1,000 words...I would systematically show each and every time.

Man. You really understand this soccerball stuff. Have you ever applied to be technical director for USSF?

Man, you're so right. We should have brought all of those amazing guys who can take on defenders with ease and hit 30 yard rockets all day. I mean that one guy who scored that one goal against someone. YEAH! HIM! Oh wait...we don't have any Americans like that. Maybe that's why Bradley struggles. No one around him is as good as the players other teams have, so he has to try and do too much. Like, you know, that one Messi guy who had to do the same thing in past World Cups and failed pretty miserably. What a hack.

At first I thought you were a troll, but the more effort you put into this I'm convinced you're just stupid.
Not just ignorant in soccer, but mentally incapable of realizing that you don't know what you're talking about and admit that you are wrong.

“I didn’t choose it. They handed them out,” Diskerud said, apologetically, before the tournament began. “It’s an honor. A lot of great players have been wearing the No. 10 for the U.S. previously. I'll enjoy it.”
He may have enjoyed it, but he never stepped on the field, yet another indication that Jurgen Klinsmann made a stubborn, foolish decision when he dropped the team's more natural No. 10, Landon Donovan.
That’s old news now, of course. Donovan won’t be wearing the No. 10 in Russia, any more than Tab Ramos or Claudio Reyna ever will be able to return to that role. But it’s clear there is a giant vacancy there, and it made for substantial problems in Brazil. Michael Bradley was asked to step forward into a more attacking role, which is not his natural position. He suffered through some of the worst matches of his life. Jermaine Jones was far better generating offense from midfield, but he will be 36 by the time the next World Cup rolls around. Graham Zusi will be 31.
Klinsmann declined to discuss specific needs after the tournament ended, even though the decline at midfield during this World Cup was most obvious.
everyone is saying he was shite at Mid....not sure why yall give him a pass...klinsman fricked up....bradley was not the right player.
I mean shite, did yall even watch the games?
