he was out of position.. maybe he was anticipating a cross..

Findley has to come off for Buddle or Gomez, and the team has to keep the ball on the ground. Just some shockingly bad passes so far.

Ghana looks very undisciplined at the back when we stay organized but we refuse to.

First Half CLIFFS:

-Everyone is playing like shite.

-This team is falling apart.
-Kobe Bryant is in attendance. MVP! MVP! MVP!

that shot by Findley looks weaker every time i see the replay.. he didnt even make it that difficult for the keeper..

whole team looks like they are losing on purpose

Howard: terrible terrible keeping on the goal
Demerit: lost in space let that ball right through
Cherundolo: looks like an MLS 2nd stringer
Bornstein: hahahahhahaa
Boca: decent but is basically just kicking it as far as he can with nearly every touch
Clark: worst player in the world cup, maybe, as far as damage per minute he's played
Bradley: not terrible but not exactly stellar
Landon: worst half of his life, well at least since his equally bad first half against Slovenia
Clint: decent, needs to stop shooting weak shots from 40 yards. Lightning doesnt strike twice
Edu: not much to say
Findley: beyond worthless, just a terrible choice to start. really unbelievable that Bob thinks we can score goals with a guy who can't play soccer at forward
Jozy: we got the really really bad version of Jozy today. a potent combination of laziness and selfishness.

What's the possession? 65-35?

Bornstein has honestly been our best player in the first half. Never thought I would say that.

Bradley makes me look like a genius with his picks of Findley and especially Ricardo Clark.

Why not go with Feilhaber and Edu instead?

The team looks so tired right now. Hopefully Landon can blast some elevator music and get the team charged up for the second half. Let's try to get as many corners as possible. Kingson is not good in the air.

Was it just me, or did it look like the Ghanians were sucking wind like a Hoover at the end of the half?

Is this normal?

It's funny you say that.
Throughout the first half, I was thinking how the knowledgeable posters don't post during in game threads.

the only thing i can say is, despite how horrible every single one of our players is playing we're only down by 1 goal.
