Can we get Guzan to play safety for the Bears?

[wolf stansson]

Guzan shook him off like a flea.

 

Cameron has been sketchy.

[shnsajax]

Preki '98, starting to feel it.

[USSoccer]

I think we have a goal in us. If we can play a little bit more quickly, we're going to score.

 

Our backline still can't track their runners.

Gonzo has been great. He's just pulled too wide by Cameron to be in position every time.

[USSoccer]

Cameron has been a mess back there. Mental mistakes abound. He and Beasley and Gomez are having terrible games.

Yeah, Gonzo's been fantastic. Cameron's been the issue back there. All over the place, losing his mark, mental mistakes, poor touches.

 

ETA: Beasley's been bad as well. Besler had the one stupid step up, but okay so far.

Stop indulging OMC and his dumb/horribly timed questions. If he cared, he'd already know.

 

I'm just genuinely curious as to what this is all about and I'm on my phone so I don't want to pull up websites and read about it. Just figured I'd be able to get some straight answers from guys in the know.

 

But you helped immensely. Told me everything I need to know.

 

6 teams left. Top 3 make it through, the 4th place team plays New Zealand for a spot. We are between the 2nd and 3rd best of the group.

[OleMissCub]

So the actual WC is over a year from now. Will the team even have all the same players then?

[Guest]

It feels like Zusi and Gomez have had a complete role reversal from last week. Zusi's been all over the place.

Thank you. Had zero idea about the format.

Beasley . . . Poor play plus a yellow, he can't be long for this game, right? Edited March 27, 2013 by Exile on Waveland

There will be additions. We're missing like 5 guys who might have started or gotten PT due to injury("injury" in the case of Landon Donovan).

Zusi's a tryer, but if Shea's foot weren't all effed up I'd want him in there now.

[wolf stansson]

Yeah Jorge, it's because Mexico had a tough game on Friday. It's not like the US played in a [expletive] blizzard or anything.

That's true, he's had a good motor but hasn't exactly been a big part of the attack

[wolf stansson]

Uh...this is that. A website you pulled up to read about it, but instead of just googling it, you had to wait for a reply in the middle of the biggest non-world cup game.

[shnsajax]

Get rid of the [expletive] ball!

[Guest]

Please get the ball out of the attacking third.

[wolf stansson]

Mo Edu showing those hot, Scottish PL possession skills he's got.

[Mark Priors Calves]

Who will be playing LB in June?

[wolf stansson]

Lol at Deuce's requisite "I'm not getting any chances so im'a boot it from back here" attempt. Too bad Robert Green isn't keeping.

[wolf stansson]

Who will be playing LB in June?

Fab Johnson. It's a lock.

[shnsajax]

We are not pushing forward at all. Jozy looking like Revis Island.

[Mark Priors Calves]

Wut?
