Dempsey is tough as [expletive].

 

Can't keep possession at all.

[USSoccer]

Kick him the [expletive] out of the game

[Guest]

Mycroft the referee has no spine

[Hairyducked Idiot]

44 minutes were pretty awful but lol who cares 1-0

[USSoccer]

Beasley has been absolutely terrible.

 

The ref has been completely terrible. Ghana could conceivably be down to 9 right now after that Muntari [expletive].

[UMFan83]

Glad we're winning and I know we can play better.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Seriously having Donovan comment on this is awwwkwaaaaard.

[Guest]

I forget, how many subs do we get, is it 3?

 

I desperately want to get Beasley off the field and maybe Mix onto it too, but with Altidore out, Dempsey nearly getting concussed, and Besler maybe gimpy, it's hard to be too aggressive with changes.

[USSoccer]

We can't expect to defend a 1-0 lead for 90. We have to hold more possession, stop letting DMB get overrun, and show a lot more composure. We gave away possession so cheaply, so many times. It was frustrating to see.

 

I want Yedlin on the right, and shift FJ over to the left.

[wolf stansson]

The rumors of Ghana loving aimless crosses were true.

[Guest]

Wahl says Brooks warming up, may be coming on for Besler.

[UMFan83]

Yeah especially because everyone will be clamoring for him to replace Jozy on the roster if we advance and I think that ship has sailed.

3 yeah

[Guest]

@GrantWahl: Looks like John Brooks may be getting ready to come on in 2nd half. Besler grabbed hamstring toward end of 1st half.

 

Crap, beaten by TT.

[USSoccer]

So Brooks is probably coming in for Besler. F.

[USSoccer]

Brooks is the same idiot who missed a club game because of pain caused by a back tattoo he got. He's a very dumb, very inexperienced player.

[Guest]

Jozy and Besler putting a pretty swift end to the hopes of our fitness advantage against the Euros in the heat.

[Guest]

SUCH BRAVERY FROM GYAN, I HOPE THEY DON'T HAVE TO AMPUTATE

[UMFan83]

Yeah but the chicks love his sweet tat bro

[Guest]

That feint and move up the field is the most aggressive thing I've ever seen Beckerman do as a Nat.

Jozy and Besler putting a pretty swift end to the hopes of our fitness advantage against the Euros in the heat.

 

So far they're saying it's only precautionary for Besler. Hopefully not too severe.

[mul21]

God, these horrible giveaways are going to be the death of me.

[Guest]

Muntari has a pug face.

[Guest]

These refs suck.

[mul21]

The linesman on the Ghana left back side is [expletive] us at every opportunity.
