Basically, Lalas said he doesn't really want to see Timmy Chandler return to the USMNT despite his ridiculous form the last month. ( LINK)


Jeremaine didn't like that.

Good to see Jermaine tell the truth.

There are a lot of people on this board that also thought hiring Bruce was a great move. We learned a whole lot about some posters through that saga.

It obviously wasn't a great move, but it was the correct move in a spot with limited options.

Jurgen had torpedoed the 2018 cycle and you needed to bring in someone that was familiar with the setup to try and right the ship. Bruce or Bob were the only options. Didn't work out.

Also, Jermaine is not correct about most mix players being gone, considering we just landed Dest, Boyd and just got Ferreira to commit.

Brooks is still in the fold, Morales was a recent call-up.

It's no different than it was in the past.

I think we've given no fewer than 5 dual nationals their first cap since last summer.

Lalas saying that form is fallacy is one of the dumbest things that he's ever said.

When he was at ESPN, he was at least more measured with his takes. Since he joined Fox, he has been infected by the Skip Bayless-hot take gene.

He’s paid by them right?
Guy definitely has some clause “must say best league” to get paid

Uh no. The players did that.

You saw it coming when every big name on the team moved to the MLS. Jurgen talked shite to everyone who played in MLS including the players that moved there.

Wait...

You're saying Jurgen had no hand in that.

This is almost as bad as your Pulisic take.


So by your logic, does Bruce or the players get credit for getting a point in Azteca?
