Ok, right here, we need to capitalize on this set piece

[wolf stansson]

Goal, plz.

[wolf stansson]

That was awful service

[wolf stansson]

Hey Costa Rica, even though we may be making you feel like it, you are not Spain. Can the oles, plz.

[Guest]

Let's just leave Beasley in Costa Rica.

 

I'd feel bad about leaving him in Costa Rica all alone so I'd say that Wynne should stay behind with Beasley.

[USSoccer]

Ok, this has been embarrassing.

 

Torres has been the only poised player on the side...after the first 3 minutes.

 

Beasley has been HORRID. HORRID. LD and Deuce have been invisible. Mastro looks awful.

 

I'd put Adu in for Mastro and Bornstein in for DMB...or just pull DMB for Adu and play a 3-5-2

[wolf stansson]

I'd like to see Charlie Davies in for Landon, but that obviously isn't going to happen.

 

It's probably not smart either.

[wolf stansson]

Sacha on for?

[wolf stansson]

Sacha on for?

Torres?!

 

Come on, Bob.

[shnsajax]

Sacha on for?

Torres?!

 

Come on, Bob.

 

Please give Guus Hiddink a blank check.

Please give Guus Hiddink a blank check.

 

I'd kill to have Hiddink coach the USMNT. Maybe he can come coach the US for the 2014 Qualifying and WC after he takes Russia a round or two further than they would go with a normal manager in the 2010 WC.

[USSoccer]

That was a bad sub.

Hey Guus, you just took Russia to the semifinals! You want your last job to be Chelsea or the US?

 

 

Seriously, barring an Ancelotti reign of terror, Guus will be back at Chelsea after 2010.

[USSoccer]

Beasley hurt. Take him off.

[wolf stansson]

Beasley hurt. Take him off.

I've got my fingers crossed that it's serious, possible life-threatening.

[USSoccer]

AWFUL yellow

[Jon]

A yellow? Are you serious?

[USSoccer]

This is usually the time in matches we get a little bit of pressure going...55-65

[Hairyducked Idiot]

We can call a do-over right? Have we used our do-over yet?

Based on what he said this sounds true, he loved it at Chelsea. He can stay for two years, then come to the US in 2012. Hell he can work both for all I care if he wants to.

Dynamite drop in, Monty.

[Guest]

So now no Bradley or Kljestan on Saturday.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I'm not even sure how to evaluate anyone in front of the back line in this game. The start just put everyone behind the eight-ball and made it impossible to play a normal game.

[Guest]

Was Bradley even trying to play defense there?

 

Garbage defense all around. Nice finish.

Without question the worst defending I have seen right there in at least 2 years. That looked like Brazil vs. Kuwait.
