Should go celebrate in front of the Mexico fans. Close enough to piss them off but not close enough to risk being hit with something.

 

I was at a restaurant that was 50-50 US-Mexico fans. My 4-year old and I made sure to let everyone know where our loyalties were... That said, my son thought we were chanting in favor of USAA insurance.

First round of CONCACAF World Cup Qualifying is done now, with group winners being El Salvador, Canada, Curacao, Panama, Haiti and St. Kitts and Nevis. Second round matchups are head to head 2 legs, winner get into the hex:

 

El Salvador v St. Kitts and Nevis (winner hosts USA to start final round.

Canada v Haiti (winner gets 2nd game at USA)

Panama v Curacao

 

Got to figure El Salvador, Canada and Panama are the favorites to join USA, Mexico, Costa Rica, Honduras and Jamaica in the final round.

Hope we see a lot of Dike and Musah in this next friendly. Put Tyler Adams in protective custody. Spare Josh Sargent's body another beating.

 

this game vs costa rica has to be the least climatic event in a long time. I mean, does anyone care? I suppose guys trying to make the roster.

Zoomer icon, Gio Reyna.

 

 

I am officially declaring him the new Dempsey. He’s the best. He even refused to pass to Yeull’s bumass on the final breakaway. Extremely Deuce behavior imo.

nice shot of pulisic between mckennie and adams . . . hard to believe he's that big a trumper.

 

I intentionally avoid social media stuff with most athletes so I'm nearly afraid to ask, but is it still just the one post he liked on Instagram that people are referencing?

Yes. Just the Jahns insta like. It’s definitely nothing overt.

 

 

The Tyler Adams-Arsenal rumors are coming hot and heavy. I’m intrigued but I’d really like a year for him under Jesse Marsch at RBL. I think Jesse will establish him as the permanent 4 in that pressing system that suits him so well. Arsenal would be more likely to do what Juve did to McKennie by turning him into the utility guy.

That was a fun week. Dominated Honduras to the point where they stalled basically the entire second half just to try to take it to penalties, then beat Mexico in a game where the USMNT back line was basically Brooks and nothing until the 80th minute, followed by Mexico realizing they were outclassed on talent and had to goon up the rest of the game to stay with them. Then the B team just absolutely demolishes Costa Rica just for funsies after the real games happened.

yea, I think it was a gun post . . . I said that mostly tongue-in-cheek. I think we're better off not binning folks.

Permanent 4?
