This is just Ferreira's 4th game after missing the beginning of the season to injury. Don't mind leaving him off based on the few amount of games

"Just" his fourth game is actually quite a lot.

It's a good percentage more than the 3 he had when they had to have the roster finalized.

You act like he wasn't in shape to be on the roster.

3 games, plus the training leading up to getting match fit for FC Dallas is plenty.

And...?

He seems to physically holding up just fine right now.

He's been FCD's best player tonight.


Gioachinni and Hoppe haven't played a single minute in months.

You can't really take right now into consideration when you were finalizing the roster a week ago.

Just a month and a half.

You mean when he went 75 minutes after playing a full 90 four days before?

I was referring to his sharpness rather than stamina.

Give me examples of Ferreira not having that in those matches where he played 75 and 90.

Also, tell me why you think Hoppe and Gioachinni will have that having not played for months.

Legit question for you Pville. Not even trying to be a dick, but I can see where it will come off that way.

Do you actually form any unique opinion when it comes to soccer, or anything?

I've never seen you do it on here, all you do is play contrarian to literally everyone on this board when someone comes with a USMNT opinion. Do you play that role in general life as well?

Just seems like a miserable way to go about life.

Like, I don't think I've ever seen you agree with anyone on this board. All I've seen is contrarian and copy/paste uncredited twitter posts.

Of course.

Almost none of my opinions are contrarian simply to be contrarian.

I've agreed on a lot of things. However, the opinions that I post will likely be on the minority side of most arguments. If 80% of people agree on Opinion A and I also side with them, I don't feel the need to post. I'm a pretty quiet person and those people probably already said what I would have, or a better version of what I would have.

Does this really bother you that much? This isn't the first time you've complained about this. I've never tried to pass those off as my own sources. I could see it if I was saying "My guy is telling me..." or something along those lines, but I don't do that. If I don't provide a link or say who said then I was simply in a hurry or forgot.

Like?

And it's not that I'm looking for you to necessarily agree. It's just that I don't think I've ever seen you post an opinion at all, other than just "well actually"ing someone else's opinion that someone posted.

With you being one of the more frequent posters on this board, I've never seen you try to start a conversation with a unique thought. And that's fine, I'm not expecting everyone to have original thoughts when it comes to the USMNT. Except, you constantly go against a lot of other's people's opinions on here. Just seems a tad disingenuous, which brings us to...

I believe you that you actually believe this. Which is honestly a tad scary.

You clearly like being the contrarian hence the "well actually it's been a month and a half" when I said Hoppe and Gioachinni haven't played in months.

Not the first time where you pulled a few words from something I said and corrected me, while completely ignoring the point I was making.

That's the textbook contrarian move.

I mean, not like I'm losing sleep over it or anything, but it definitely makes me inquisitive when you do it.

You have definitely posted tweets that started with "I'm hearing" without posting the actual twitter handle that you copy/paste from.

For the record, I'm not your serial downvoter.

I'll upvote a post of your choosing to prove it.

Give me a prompt.

I don't start many conversations period. I'm fine with silence. If someone else starts a thread and I have an opinion on it, I'll jump in.

OK

It's possible that I've done this a few times, but I just checked random pages of this thread going back to the beginning and I've stayed fairly consistent with how I've posted info.
