I would still disagree with you. I thought Jurgen's tactics for most of the match yesterday were very odd.
In some ways, yes.
BUT, the US was disciplined, organized and actually look like they knew what the frick they were doing.
The frustrating thing is that you can probably count on one hand the number of times you could say that in the last two years.
The last time I recall (not counting the Scotland "scrimmage") was Slovenia.
In both games, we played an empty bucket 4-4-2, and Jermaine Jones' positionally undisciplined, turnover prone arse wasn't on the field.
One could almost suggest those two things are related.

Absolutely - and that is something extremely positive to take away from the match.
Still, a lot of missed opportunities in a match where we got more than we were supposed to.
The substitutions, for one, were absolutely puzzling. You have Beasley on a yellow for 80 minutes and injured for the better part of the second half, but instead opt to bring on 2 left wingers and a striker (who has only played wide for the US) and take off your striker? Lolwut? Was Jurgen drawing names out of a hat or something? Maybe he thought EJ would be a better target man than Jozy? Still, in a match where your defensive players are sucking air, your LB is injured and on a yellow and your star AM is gassed, substituting on 3 wide players and then NOT attacking is odd.
