So are we taking this one seriously or sending out the USL stars?

Not taking it seriously. To be fair, neither is Canada. We should win easily.

What is after the Gold Cup or is all of that placed on hold with EPL starting their season?

In terms of international play? nothing for a while other than some friendlies in October.

We start Nations League back up in November with the new format where we will play a home/away against some shitty CONCACAF minnow since we'll be the highest ranked team amongst the 4 seeded teams.

If we win that, which we will, we move to the Nations League semifinals in March and then also qualify for Copa America in June. Kind of dumb that we're not an auto-bid since we're hosting it, but whatever, we'll qualify for that.

TLDR, a bunch of meaningless bullshite until Copa America next summer.

What are your expectations for the US in Copa America?

Last time we hosted, we made the semifinals (and got smoked) with Steve Birnbaum and Gyasi Zardes starting and Michael Orozco, Perry Kitchen and Edgar Castillo on our roster. Pulisic was 16 years old and our best player, but didn't play a second until Jurgy put him in after we already lost to Argentina.

So I think a run to the finals is possible.

Wouldn't we run into either Brasil or Argentina before the finals?

Possibly, but while obviously we are nowhere close to as good as those programs, we can definitely beat them on home soil on our day.

Let’s geaux ‘Murica! I’m all psyched up for this one. Last result I need




Assuming fat Messi’s been injured since the Jamaica game and that’s why Zendejas has been starting over him?

It's funny seeing him in a suit and they take that shot of him from behind where his neck fat curls over his collar.

Who makes Guatemala’s kits? Umbro? I don’t get why we constantly settle for Nike garbage.

Also Gressel starting is a weird shout, but oh well in BJ we trust
