Fully expecting an EJ brace, so the move works in spite of itself.

[wolf stansson]

Love A-B's fat keeper.

[wolf stansson]

Real 2005 vibe to this broadcast. Standard def, two cameras and Marcelo Balboa on the mic. Awful.

[USSoccer]

Nice narrow field. Christ.

 

Also, EJ has like 4 giveaways and no idea how to play against a packed defense.

[wolf stansson]

Mike Bradley is our best player. Eddie Johnson is not. Despite that goal. Zusi's passing range is really, really strong. Edited October 12, 2012 by wolf stansson

[USSoccer]

Of course

[Guest]

Zusi has done pretty well for himself for a guy whose first call up was like a month ago.

[wolf stansson]

Shut up, Phil Schoen. Leave Jozy out of this.

[USSoccer]

That is [expletive] embarrassing and humiliating.

[wolf stansson]

Dudes talking like this is a different EJ. How exactly? EJ did nothing but score in MLS and against CONCACAF minnows for years. That's all he's doing now.

 

 

And as I type, they score.

[Guest]

Goodson slipped, Mr. Announcer, but he was also yanked down by the shoulder.

[wolf stansson]

Blackstock making our defenders look like they're wearing cement shoes.

 

Nice missed sitter, EJ.

[wolf stansson]

Jozy would've turned that dude like a rag doll but EJ gets pushed off. Comments, Phil Schoen? Didn't think so.

[Guest]

That was an odd offsides call.

[Guest]

Interesting that in a half that had two goals and two visits from the trainer, they only go with one minute of stoppage.

[USSoccer]

I'd say it couldn't get any worse, but I'm afraid to.

 

That was shambolic and embarrassing. EJ has killed multiple attacks by being simply unable to play a quick pass or make a quick decision.

[wolf stansson]

We're not a World Cup team if we don't win by at least 2 on these bums.

 

Bein Sport's coverage and analysis is a disgrace. This hot chick is standing in a monsoon giving nothing but trivia and no one is going to mention how bad a job Klinsy does against teams we should kill.

They need to stop saying "of course" and "obviously".

[wolf stansson]

"It's weird how all of our strikers are lazy and disappear!"

-this broadcast team

 

Uh...service?

[Guest]

"He's not faking it this time"

 

Uh....

[wolf stansson]

Balboa just said "Jeremy Jones" is warming up.

[wolf stansson]

Dempsey just SCREAMED at Zusi. F bombed him.

[Guest]

I might've been hallucinating, but I think they called the goal scorer Andy Johnson.

 

I can't help but think that Shea and Donovan's games would've been ideal today.

[USSoccer]

Gomez is awful tonight, and EJ is so, so useless.

[wolf stansson]

Why is this all a referendum on the strikers with these two bozos? 1 goal on 4 shots for Jozy is all about Klinsmann and his dumb system.
