If the US treated coaches like every other country in the world Bradley would be gone after tonight.

The US culture seems to provide a lot more leeway for coaches.

I really think Adu needs to play the other midfield next game. Torres did some decent things. Sacha is kinda sucking, and Adu has been 1 of about 3 decent looking players.

I still think we can turn it around. Maybe this is what we need. We though the El salvador game may have opened our guy's eyes, but we came back and still tied. Maybe getting their arse handed to them while the entire region watches will change things. Also, CR really isn't bad, and we haven't scored a goal here since 2000...this is a reoccurring thing in this shithole.

Maybe, but at the very least, he is inconsistent. Why give Torres his first start in a hostile environment? Why Wynne at right back? He's been pretty terrible for a while. Why not call up Frank Simek, or Michael Orozco to help with our wingback problems?

Not going to be easy against Honduras either.


No, it won't. But still, it will be at home. Honduras isn't quite as good as CR. I think (hope) the guys will be pissed off after tonight's lousy effort and come out on fire.

thats a bullshite arguement though. that shite hole isnt anything like azteca or some of the super hostile crowds. we have talent that SHOULD be able to score away goals

Adu is the only player who looks like he could actually do something. And if this surface wasn't pathetic that very well may have been a perfect pass to Beas.

their comments make it seem like they're watching a monitor

1. when the ball was kicked up and the cameraman lost it, they thought it was out of bounds

2. they didn't see who we subbed in last (camera wasn't on it). seriously?

im not going to get too pissed off about this.

its very obvious we are struggling on this field. our touch is not this bad

just going to call this a hiccup.


but if the same effort happens again in any other qualifier, im going to be supremely upset

Maybe Frankie will be healthy for Saturday, and use some Rasta magic on us.

Take it from a half-honduran... Honduras is completely unpredictable. Honduras will beat Mexico 4-1 in Mexico, then come out in the next match and lose to T&T 1-0 at San Pedro Sula. Absolutely cannot figure them out. It all depends on if Pavon, and Costly are on or not. I don't think Suazo has recovered yet.
