re: Jermaine Jones passing the ball, WTF?

I would drop Green for Donovan in a heartbeat.

We should create a kickstarter to pay for Green to go to Brazil first class, pay for him to sit wherever he wants in the stadiums, and for high-end sloots each night to take Donovan instead.

The other option is to raise enough money to give to Brad Davis to retire.

So you think we'd be better off with Beckerman playing than Jones? Jones gets more bullshite on this board than he deserves.

I have been in the JJ is (insert any negative adjective) camp for a while. But I thought he played fairly well against Turkey. Seems like he is putting a real effort into being a CDM only and letting MB move into a more offensive position. Probably would have helped if Chandler had kept a little more width while tracking back.

Donavan belongs in a different thread. Cameron is not a RB in our 2014 World Cup roster and Chandler seems to have locked down the starting LB spot... Which means Yedlin is our Beasley on the right. He had a terrible first pass that wasn't nearly as crucial of a mistake as leaving Zusi to chase down a quick counter.

Chandler was fine for the first 70 minutes.

There were quite a few times where he didn't keep his width defensively. But his main blunder was obviously the horrible turnover that lead to the pk.
