Thats all i was looking for really. My soccer iq is very low and im trying to pick it up slowly
All i know is while watching Juventus play saturday, i was glued to the tv
Those guys knew what the hell was going on and it made me realize how far the mens us team has to go to look like a real team.
It's not really fair to compare the USMNT to Juve or the other absolutely elite club teams, especially the mainly younger and fringe players that played in the friendly against Canada. It's not usual that even the best national teams look quite as fluid as the best club teams.
However, the US doesn't have a player that could crack Juve's first team even though we do have some players like Dempsey, Bradley, Donovan and Howard that are pretty close to that level.
There's a lot of threads here discussing the US team but suffice it to say that right now there's a lot of questions about Klinsmann's ability to get the tactics right to have the team play a bit more fluidly/effectively than they did against Honduras.

The time they spend together alone is a huge difference
Thats not even talking talent difference
