We focus more on getting the ball out to the wings and letting CP and Weah work inside, instead of sending in a cross or something.

We cross plenty, our crossing just sucks

Turner played like a madman tonight. Carrying the torch of excellent USMNT keepers very well.

Still think we need to dump Gregggg and get a real manager. He’s going to waste a lot of talent this window which is such a shame. There was a small part of me that hoped we got embarrassed again so pressure would mount to force him out. I don’t see a situation where he isn’t the guy for 2026 though unfortunately.

Our wingers don't though and they are the ones getting the ball mainly in the attack. It's mainly our outside backs who send in a speculative cross after our wingers have to dribble out and recycle the ball.

The defense structure the second half was fantastic

Give credit where it’s due for Gregg

His eyes got a little too big on that one goal but I liked the aggressiveness.

It’s not enough to have a couple threads specifically about this. But to feel the need to continue the sky screaming about them in every thread is old. We get it. Your obsessed with rainbows.

It is out of my system now, it is fricking dumb and stupid but I still want to watch my nation's team play the beautiful game.

you have no idea how many people ask me why they wear bras


Every sport wears them.

I can see a non-sports fan not knowing. But anyone who watches sports should know what they are.
LSU football team has used them since at least 2016.

Balogun though, at least in the past, has been the only 9 that has realized he needs to drop deeper if he wants the ball. Pepi unfortunately still hasn't figured that out and instead keeps running around for no reason.


Sargent can do this as well but just hasn't been healthy in a camp since the World Cup

Well, just finished watching. Either team could have won so a draw was fair. Instead of trying to play out of the back ONLY through the middle we actually passed it wide.....wow, crazy concept.

Scally was real good defensively. Richards lacks concentration and positional sense. Musah carries the ball with ease but passes like Richie Williams. Weah lost possession way too much. Wes looked like he cared this match even though he was quiet. Ream was back to playing like a Pep style Centerhalf.....calm as frick on the ball.

All in all that was very entertaining.

This is all 100% spot on

If Musah improved his passing he would be incredible for us. Also we need Richards’ concentration to get better or we will concede goals we shouldn’t.

Stoked as an NSC fan. Worried as a USMNT fan.
