  1. I'm guessing 4-4-2 diamond with CP at the point.
  2. Today’s U.S. MNT Starting XI vs. Venezuela: 1-Tim Howard, 2-DeAndre Yedlin, 4-Michael Bradley (capt.), 6-John Brooks, 8-Clint Dempsey, 9-Bobby Wood, 10-Christian Pulisic, 15-Darlington Nagbe, 17-Jorge Villafaña, 20-Geoff Cameron, 23-Fabian Johnson I love Bruce Arena. This is a lineup right here. This is what friendlies are for.
  3. Tyler Adams and Josh Sargent are both eligible for the next U-20 WC.
  4. I wonder if there's a roster re-shuffling period or contingency where you can call new guys into camp, like the Gold Cup? Probably not. Would be cool to get Pulisic in if they get to the semi's.
  5. Or maybe not. Looks like bigger sharks are circling. http://www.starsandstripesfc.com/usmnt-transfer-rumors/2017/5/26/15700916/werder-bremen-transfer-news-josh-sargent-usmnt-rumors This is a fun U-23 fantasy draft: https://theringer.com/soccer-draft-mbappe-alli-young-players-4987c876fd62
  6. [tweet] [/tweet] That's a lot of €.
  7. [tweet] [/tweet]At two different age levels. U-17 & U-20.
  8. U-20 hypebeast, Josh Sargent, signed with Bremen. That's a smart move for him. Bigger clubs would have called but this is a manageable transition.
  9. I've only seen highlights, but that Josh Sargent kid looks serious.
  10. Nico & Clint being able to fill whichever spaces they want, when they want is more effective than any other combo, regardless of how ideal it suits Morris long-term. J Mo is good, and probably is better up top than out wide, as everyone says, but he's not good enough to stifle the two DP's who can do the special stuff that he can't at this point.
  11. Turns out the attempted murder of the Prince Who Was Promised was perpetrated by Le Chiffre from Casino Royale. https://apnews.com/49f9c0cbc2bb4f9f9e48eec2d0de2889
  12. I don't feel comfortable making fun of el tri fans for whining about the Robben penalty in Brazil if we're still dredging up stuff that happened 15 years ago.
  13. I don't know what it's worth, but Emerson Hyndman has been absolutely carving up the SPL with Rangers this year. His latest. [tweet] [/tweet]
  14. Pulisic set the American single season assist record in European comp this weekend. An extremely Pulisic effort (speed, skill, determination, vision) and a hell of a finish by Reus. http://www.noshortcorners.com/2017/04/third-times-historic-charm.html
  15. Boca on the bein halftime crew. Somehow more handsome then ever.
  16. We're playing some truly suspect defenders but I'm still too in awe of Pulisic to care. He's getting the LD treatment. Just getting hacked all night, but his engine and fire is next level.
  17. When a 140lb teenager shrugs off 450 lbs of center back in the form of Torres and Baloy to find Deuce on the doorstep.
  18. It's not about shirts. It's about giving your brand a reason for a new or neutral fan to become a lifelong source of revenue. Why should a 12 year old kid from San Francisco pick Manchester City instead of PSG? Why should a 22 year old in Shanghai pick Bayern Munich over Barcelona? How do you target wide swaths of a huge market with plenty of upside left when so many other properties are vying for their lifelong allegiance/dollars/viewership?
  19. He's 5 years younger than Mane. Mane couldn't get a game at Metz when he was Pulisic's age. CP is playing at a club on par with Liverpool. Mane doesn't move the needle in American merch sales. Pulisic is so valuable from a marketing perspective that I think there's only a handful of clubs in the world that he could realistically leave Dortmund for.
  20. In which the 86 year old dean of American soccer writing, Paul Gardner, takes a flamethrower to the [expletive] king, Jurgen Klinsmann (and briefly touches on the manager worship that makes the premier league so very, very stupid these days). https://www.socceramerica.com/article/72798/the-triumphant-return-of-bruce-arena.html
  21. this is a god dream [tweet] [/tweet]
  22. I am legit emotional right now. Clint and Pulisic's peaking together 16 years apart. Bless them boys.
  23. I love soccer again, you guys. So much.
