I am.
And it is not complacency in mediocrity. It is understanding limitations and operating within them. Figure it out.

I’d also argue there were some positives to take away from the loss to Switzerland. We didn’t play that great but hung around with them. Basically the same team went on to eliminate France and almost Spain.
I know. A loss is a loss and it was a friendly. But it’s not like Switzerland is a total slouch on the world stage. There’s certainly things to be optimistic about (albeit cautiously)

If you consider Dest as a possible LB, then Vines and Bello are fighting for 3rd string.
I don’t, but for the sake of argument I’ll give you that.

We need 3 GKs per roster. After Steffen/Horvath, who's #3? Turner.
Nope. With a young roster, Guzan will go for locker room reasons.

He's solidly in the group fighting to get that last CB spot. Especially with Long still out for some time.
Robinson is behind Miazga, Zimmerman, and McKenzie.

Shouldn't matter. We're playing semi finalists from the last Gold Cup.
FIFY
that 2019 Haiti Gold Cup team won a group that consisted of Costa Rica, Bermuda, & Nicaragua
and held Mexico scoreless all the way into extra time in that semifinal... and only lost on a PK in the 93rd minute
Costa Rica... the team that finished 2nd to Haiti in that group... took Mexico to PKs in the quarterfinal only for Mexico to advance 5-4 in 6 rounds of PKs

I still want to know what Gregg sees in Lewis. Because he’s the only one who sees it, even the Rapids don’t see it.

Robinson is behind Miazga, Zimmerman, and McKenzie.

Robinson is only behind them because ATL hasn’t released him until now. Good performances like tonight can move him up quickly, IMO.

Miazga is ahead of Zimmerman…

Not sure how anyone could be certain of that. Didn’t we recently see Ream get a bunch of minutes and Miazga not sniff the field?
Posted on 7/11/21 at 10:20 pm to pvilleguru
Also, any of the MLS guys have a leg up on getting called in if there's an injury/suspension in the 1st or 2nd game of each window just because they are already in North America.

He was selected for the roster. Zimmerman was not.

Switzerland are a solid team and Shaqiri comes out as prime Ronaldo half of the time.
I also forgot about the Mexico game. That was a badass and impressive win by the Gregg and the boys.

With this roster I guess this would be best for the next match
—————Turner
Moore-Zimmerman-Robinson-Vines
—————-Busio
———-Acosta Lletget
——Gioachinni-Dike-Zardes
I can’t believe we have no legitimate wing options in the squad.

The problem with Dike being on this roster is that he needs good wing play to run off of and provide him service.
It really is an unfortunate for him because the strongest facet of our a-team is on the wings.
