Its baffling to me how bad everyone except Wood and Dempsey were in that half.

 

How many times do we need to see Mix and Bradley in the wrong spots together before it stops?

[soccer10k]

seriously, this team is fun bad and that's inexcusable. It's the US in CONCACAF. There's no reason to ever plumb these depths regardless of a temporary talent dip between generations.

 

Such a joke of a coach.

 

We were in the same spot last cycle also. Beat Antigua at home then tied Guatemala and lost to T&T, both on the road. Assuming they don't turn this around, they'll be 1-1-1 again.

It was Jamaica last cycle but yeah.

When will America finally develop its own Messi? It's own Ronaldo? It's own Marco Pappa?

 

Until we do, we just have to accept games like this against superior talent.

[shnsajax]

Not going to get many chances better than that one.

Would rather see Pulisic over Demolition Man.

Hey wolf remember that Bayern game that ended with them having 5 strikers and 2 defenders on the field?

Yeah, I was looking at both 2014 and 2018 and mixed up the two. We tied T&T in our second game this cycle.

Yeah but Lucio was in the box constantly so DiMichelis was the only true defender. He was in charge of service via long ball.

 

 

Isn't it cool how Michael Orozco plays for Tijuana's u-20 team as a 30 year old but he's a starter for a qualifier with the national team? That makes sense.

 

 

What happened with that Bayern team anyway? Oh yeah, they fired their idiot coach and lifelong pros who under his management looked like clueless amateurs went back to playing like lifelong pros.

This announcer has no idea that the US plays Guatemala again on Tuesday.

[wolf stansson]

Jurgen makes history again. First ever qualifying loss to Guatemala.

 

When he talks about the US Soccer community being unsophisticated, he's not talking about us. He's talking about the morons who haven't canned him yet. Even he thinks it's crazy he's still cashing checks to coach grown men.

*sound of breaking glass*

DEAR GAWD! THAT'S BRIAN STRAUSS' MUSIC!!

[USSoccer]

Jurgen is now 1-3-1 in his last 4 competitive games. Losses to Mexico, Jamaica and Guatemala. The only win against a team full of resort employees and even those guys scored first.

[wolf stansson]

Evaluating individual results is one thing.

The fact that after HALF A DECADE this man's teams show the same issues, game after game, says it all. No organization, no identity, no trust, no clue. These are all good players who play on club teams that manage to have all of those things. It's not the players.

Yup. It's the same crap from 2012, really. Poor roster construction, playing guys in the wrong spots, weird subs and a completely disjointed side.

[USSoccer]

How is Mix starting for this team? How is Bradley STILL being played as a #10? Why are you starting a terrible defender in Castilllo? Whoops, he couldn't handle a half assed press and played a back pass out for a corner, from which they scored

[Transmogrified Tiger]

We started Orozco, Castillo, Bedoya, and Wood in a qualifier, in this the year of our lord 2016. What a time to be alive.

Wood wasn't even bad.

 

Why is Yedlin starting at RM? Why isn't Cam at DM or CB?

Hey Jurgen, seems like when you play players out of position they struggle to figure it out quickly.

 

Ja, das ist weird, right? You should ask them why!

Kane's and Vardy's goals today were pretty great. Is it crazy to think that this England team could be a little sneaky in the Euro's.

If Hodgson is brave enough to pick his team on form they could surprise. If he starts Rooney, Henderson, Cahill and Sturridge, they'll go out in the group stage.

True. It's too bad Bale picked Wales. Bale and Kane together could have been special. I'm still loving the Vardy story.
