This basically every game. Fights his arse off. Just not as clean as you want him to be.

I think we'll go with Pulisic and Aaronson on the wings in Nations League.


What makes you say that? I wouldn’t mind it at all but seems like berhalter has started Reyna over Aaronson whenever Pulisic is playing on the left.

I think this is only the 2nd camp where they've both been involved. I think Aaronson has been in better form, and I think Aaronson played better today. I could be wrong, but I think I noticed Aaronson on the right more than the left today.

Prior to the camp in March, Aaronson had been used as an attacking mid instead as a winger.

Central Defense is the biggest worry for me and its been that way. Quick counterattacking attackers that have good off the ball movement will cause major issues for the players we have. Brooks is not a quick twitch player and has trouble with those traits. The young defenders (MM, Richards) give me hope though.

In this match with no real destroyer in front of the back line it was not pretty. A more clinical team has 4 or 5 goals today.

I like the look of Aaronson......good work rate, skill, composure.

Sargent has the same issue he’s always had.......he has horrible off of the ball movement. He just flows with the run of play with no smart runs (either along the lines or into the channels). As a central defender, he’s a dream to play against.

My main comment is that if we’re going to press them, the whole team has to press. Yesterday the front 6 pressed, but the back 4 did not. It gave the Swiss a ton of space to turn and run at defenders.

Agree.......once they passed the initial line of pressure it was press the center halves and make them commit.

Does our performance look better in light of their defeat of France.

Yes. We have up fewer goals to them than France did.
