Am I the only one who really enjoys watching Tecatito play (unless of course it is vs. us)?

He's a great player. Skill moves for days. I hate how he dives a lot, though.

We don't really want Honduras to win, so how about a hard-fought 0-0 draw with lots of cards for El Tri?

Just rewatched the second US goal and Jozy dropped a motherfricking dime

Anyone retroactively even more pissed that Jurgen pushed Nagbe away and never rated Villafana?

Alejandro Bedoya @AleBedoya17 2m2 minutes ago

Still waiting for confirmation from officials that they've found the sniper that got me out there!

LOL.

Mexico with a man down, Honduras doesn't give a shite, almost scores.

These two teams HATE each other. Lots of bad blood, but in a different kind of way from USA vs MEX.

Absolutely.

There was no justifiable reason why Villafana wasn't given a shot at LB immediately after the 2015 MLS season. I'm glad he's in the team now.

Ha I had the same thought about Nagbe and villafana. Especially when they're on the same side and have obvious chemistry from their time at Portland. Nagbe is so composed on the ball

Seeing Mexico score a goal on a corner is unsettling with the way we've been defending crosses and set pieces lately.

Dempsey is such a little bitch sometimes. He's so damn full of himself to not realize he had little to no impact in the game and was making shite passes. His little fit when he got subbed out was pathetic. Sometimes I'm just ready to move on from this guy. When he's on, he is great. When he's off, he drags the team down. You never know which Dempsey is going to show up.

I liked the starting 11 overall. Love seeing Nagbe in there the whole game. He needs to get a little better touch on some of his passes, but he has good vision and is explosive when he gets the ball. Antidore should have had 2-3 goals. He needs to finish those opportunities. Pulisic was outstanding. He gives me hope for our team. The back line looked not so great in the first half but seemed to make an adjustment in the second half.

This was a game that should have had 5 goals from us and probably a couple for T&T.

Two thoughts about the game one very obvious. CP is a beast. The second observation is if Fabian Johnson can play at a high level in Europe, I cant believe clubs have not come begging for Nagbe. I was very impressed.

Jeez, Honduras has come close to breaking at least 3 players' legs. There's gonna be a fight at some point.

You can afford a Dempsey performance like this against T&T, especially after he dropped 4 in the previous two WCQ games.

Good on Bedoya for having a good sense of humor about it and having fun with it.

Because that windmill fall over was hilarious.

When has Dempsey had a good performance against Mexico? Seems like every time we play them, he disappears. Should be something to consider when Bruce makes the XI on Sunday.

I'd like to see Wood for sure and go at them early and fast.

Wood has scored twice in 2 games against Mexico. And in competitive games, not friendlies.

They've struggled in dealing with his quick turns and incisive runs. Hope he gets the start.

Wood has 8 USMNT goals... 2 of them against Mexico

Dempsey has 56 USMNT goals... 0 of them against Mexico

I like Dempsey as a super-sub, but I doubt he'd ever settle for that before he hung his national team boots up.
