Feilhaber has been his typical invisible self aside from that cross to the wrong team.

Look at all of that goddamn space


If we give Stevie G and Super Frank that much space at the edge of the box they will both score hat tricks against us.

God we give people all the space they want. Early in the game I think it was Goodson still backing off his guy at the edge of the box and Howard chewed him out after.

Dolo played a lot better against the Czechs. Spector has been exploited all half.

Has it been said yet that Spector needs to go away?

Dempsey doesn't look comfortable at all up top. I'd like to see him move back to mid and see what Buddle/Gomez can do in the second half.

dempsey is just having his typical shitty half

i'm sure he'll show up in the 75th minute with some amazing touch score after a great cross

Feilhaber should just be a sub.
God we need to figure out a way to get a third man in the midfield.
Spector continues his horrible form.

He's been the worst of a very very poor showing so far.

We had one good chance and only b/c of a great individual performance.

Edu for Clark
Holden for Benny
Dolo for Spector

And ditch the 4-4-1-1 or whatever.

Well good news is we still have another game to test out our formations before the WC starts.

That being said Bob obviously needs to change up the formation.

Bob can't change the defense himself, they simply need to play and communicate better.

Clark must play further back as a true Defensive Mid, there is too much space between our Midfield and our Defense. Along with gaping passing planes through our defense.

Something needs to change in the Dempsey-Jozy partnership. They either need to reverse their roles with Jozy further up top and Dempsey closer to the midfield or they need to be even with each other.

Donovan and Feilhalber need to be changed drastically. They both seem absent from this game as if they disappeared. Donovan needs to move to Attacking midfield so he can pick up the ball more often and actually feed the ball to our strikers for once. Feilhalber either needs to move to the right side or to the bench, something has to change with him.

Missed that, but he seems to be better than most of our guys in controlling the ball in traffic. Seems like most of our guys freak the hell out and just launch the ball downfield.

We need Dempsey back in the mid, play someone else up top, and take Clark off and find someone to provide some width. We are playing very, very narrow.

I don't think Dempsey has been as bad as people are making him out to be. He could obviously be better.

Landon has had the more disappointing half IMO.

To be fair, everyone's been bad to some degree. Bradley has been impressive at times I guess.
