God I effin hope so. FJ is probably our best LB but he is better suited to play out wide for us.

We're all kind of picking our battles at this point. I could probably pick out 8 guys that should be sent home, but the replacements are only slightly better and they'd have to acclimatize. Continuity at this point in the tourney may be best.

I'd be very happy with a 2014 form Beasley at LB, Corona at LM, Fabs at RB, and a fit Bedoya at RM.

I would also be ok with Beasley and Chandler at the backs with Fabian and Bedoya in front of them. Hate
pn Chandler all you want, but the midfield bears a lot of the blame for how the back line has looked IMO.

I personally don't want to see Yedlin or Zardes starting any more games.

I think Yedlin out wide is easier to swallow than Chandler at RB at this point. I get your point though, they are both much better at providing energy off the bench. I was sorely disappointed in gyasi's first half versus Panama.

Most are assuming he's hurt or something..

More Jurgan fricking trolling.

There has to be someone better than Wondo. There just has to.

whatever happened to Boyd? He just fell off the map.

He blew out his knee, just started light training.

My Wondo alert is going off.

Exquisite football from our Native Son. That totally intentional rocket touch to Bedoya's chest carved up the Panamanian defense. If only Wondo had been on the end of Wondo's ball, and not Alejandro.

I'm watching the replay now, and he's looking better. I mean, there are his typical lazy giveaways, but he looks more active defensively, at least.

Agreed. He was much better last night. Refs screwed him a few times too

I mean I guess. Maybe from a 3/4 out of 10 to an at best 5/6.

He still had a ton of shitty fouls, as previously said lazy arse giveaways and general clue less positional sense.

He got lucky because they were attacking down the right a lot. Against Honduras, they were butt raping him in his J-lo butt down their left.

Nevermind. He just fricked up twice in 30 seconds and nearly conceded a goal by backpedaling on a switch ball that he should have just turned and run to cover his man. He sucks arse again.

Oh, what's that? You want another Wondo gif? Same play, different angle?

The Zardes play that was identical to that. Except he skied it so bad, poor Alejandro couldn't even handball it down.

fricking Wondo.

Yeah, our forwards have no touch whatsoever. I don't understand it in the slightest.

I generally feel that way for the full 90 with the cig fiend.

Someone please put up the give and go GIF from the first game. That shite was so epic.

The guy with the best feet/touch in our pool can't sniff the squad.

I'll hint that he is excelling in SKC right now, in a position we REALLY need.

Wondo passing to himself in front of the goal and then kicking it over the bar would be the end of this board.
