I know Stejskal and Tenorio of the athletic basically hated the subbing pattern and decision to turtle. Not sure if they got to ask questions to that effect though...

I guess Haji was in over Ferreira for heading purposes? Ferreira certainly wouldn't have helped there, but he's got an incredible work rate! We needed that...

I'm starting to be almost as upset we haven't seen Scally as I am about no gio. Dest was subbed out in each game, and more than that, we knew he wasn't 90 minutes fit. Is scally there to back up Robinson? PLAY HIM GREGG...

I was 10 and attending Daivd Chaney's soccer camp in Lafayette. I watched the Germany game before going to camp. The coaches had recorded the game to watch after camp, and they knew I had been watching. My face spoiled the game result as soon as I got to camp and I had to spoil it for them. Rest of ...

Also, I know this is a Reyna thread, but Yedlin and Moore combining for 3 sub appearances and Scally not getting a sniff is criminal. Can't believe it with the way the other two have performed. I was a Nashville season ticket holder and I do not want to see Shaq for a long time with the nats...

How ugly? 0 shots on goal, 2nd slowest ball progression of the GGG era, 2nd only to the 3-0 disasterclass vs Mexico in 2019. Our only legit chance was a cross that went to our striker that is charitably listed as 5'9". https://www.mlssoccer.com/news/usmnt-player-ratings-turner-only-standout-as-ja...

Mckenzie was poor as well...

Seems impossible that he would still leave Pefok at home. I also am a big Jesus guy, but he just is too damn small for international play, especially with the way we like to get it wide to Dest, A Rob, and Weah and send in crosses....

“In the four World Cup qualification matches in which the U.S. had under 50% possession, they averaged 2.5 points and 2.8 goals scored per match; in 10 matches over 50%, they averaged 1.5 points and 1.0 goals.” The possession game has not worked even against CONCACAF. How did we get to this poi...

I think it’s possible, but there is just so little time for experimentation at the national team level. It would not personally be my choice ...

I feel like we try Ferreira next. Also, not sure we aren’t best with Weah on the right and Reyna as one of the 8s. I really like Musah, but I think the ceiling is higher with Weah at RW and Reyna as an 8. Definitely gives us more attacking bite in the run of play and set pieces....

That lineup also has 5 new starters, with 4 fully fresh. I think we’ll need that energy after the effort they put in tonight Gregg won’t do it, but I wouldn’t hate to see Horvath. Steffen looked slow in reacting to man city and somewhat tonight. He also did not look good with his feet ...

Ferreira just dropped a hat trick and an assist in his last mls game, no reason not to give him a chance. I really wonder if Musah will be ready to go again. I feel like we’d definitely see Reyna in that spot if Weah were available. I’d probably put Reyna there and ~gasp~ arriola at RW with Musah lo...

They’re gonna CONCACAF so hard in the second half now. What a disaster...

Well now my nervousness is off the charts. What a lethargic, toothless performance ...

How nervous is everyone else. I’m a solid 6.5/10...

Second fastest to 15 goals. Probably would have been first if we had made the last WC or if not for Covid...

Pulisic is already tied for 12th all time in goals, how ridiculous ...
