We were gifted a shite Mexico team in the Gold Cup and decided to throw a bunch of random guys out there instead of trying to win it.
A shite Mexican team?? I honestly don't understand why people feel like this game was going to be a breeze.

Has anyone considered that random players were chosen because other players may have been injured in the leagues that they play in? These players play other games other than play for the US team.

I don't think anyone truly believes Mexico are a shite side. They're shite because we've dominated them in recent years, especially under Jurgen. Losing is just something we haven't felt in several years.

You do realize he was talking about the Gold Cup, not this game, right? Where we lost to Jamaica (for a second time under this manager, the only two losses to that team in history) before the finals, which if we had won there would have been no meaningful match tonight because we would have already qualified for the Confederations Cup?

You do realize that the Mexico team that won the Gold Cup had been bailed by the officials in extra time in two previous games just to have the chance to make it to the finals? Where Mexico was still being managed by another coach who has since been fired and replaced, while our manager has excused his own poor tactical decisions by speaking down to the fans, poor-mouthing the national league, and then continuing to make poor tactical decisions?

No, we're not aware that the players have to play for club teams. We don't understand the sport, as Klinsmann himself will tell you. Thanks for the tips.
