Herc's awful performance tonight, and it was kind of awful, will make people who are pissed off about Jozy being left off (and I get that) forget that he's been pretty good for us lately.

I thought Bradley was pretty good. Hard for a central midfielder/playmaker to look great on that pitch.

Zusi had a nice ball for the first goal, and another decent ball, and then he fell off dramatically. Dempsey is not a fan.

Yes, Jones...He has had a ankle problem. As far as the yellow, that isn't a surprise. He has what 6 yellows in his last 10 games? Being suspended for stomping the frick out of Reus' ankle. At one point, Jones was one of our best long passers.

Gomez had two awful touches when he was behind the D, but at least he tries.

Alot of people bitchin' about a nonmatch that was won with grit. I agree, the list of who could have done what, who should have been here, etc..

But tonight was a slugfest, and the fighter had a trainer who stayed in the dressing room. Yet, the fighter pulled it out.

I say, let's table it for another day.

And that was some BS from Antigua to make the field dimensions tiny, especially considering that they were playing on a massive cricket pitch.

I hate that FIFA allows for such leniency on field dimension specifications. There should be a set standard, teams with small fields can stretch them to the maximum limit. I'm glad the Premier League initiated a set size this year.

You should talk about the USMNT more. I like it.

lol before this game.... out of 50+ crosses into the box only 10 have been completed. Only 4 on goal. Over the last four games...only 5 through balls in the final third.

Thanks Eagle, I think people forget that I'm both nationalities, and I do care about our side. That said, there's so much flux, so much, that the fighting and bickering is useless, unless Jurgey begins to get some semblance of what he wants. He has yet to show so. I was appalled at him just sitting under the protective cover of the bench the whole time. Truly appalled. I did not expect that.

TBF, the side judge didn't know the rule. Herc was uncharacteristically poor though.

Agreed. I know it was A&B, but he said multiple times before the match that it was a "must win".

Well freaking act like it! Your job might be on the line, man...

He obviously doesn't think so, he acts as if he is still in analysis mode.
