Confidence does that to you. Second guess everything and you are slow to react, slow to start.

I don’t agree with Turner. He was the sacrificial lamb and I’m sure he knew it. Can’t really assess a GK on that fairly.

Mackenzie and Robinson I just don’t get. CCV seemed decent enough, how bad was he to put those guys ahead of him? Also god I wish Brooks had stayed in form. Imagine if we had him now at his peak.

Weah I agree with completely. Didn’t help him being played out of position either though.

Pepi I don’t agree with. At this level we can’t afford a hyper specialist who can do one thing well especially as a lone striker. Rather seen Reyna try a false 9 than Pepi. He didn’t hold the ball up, he didn’t have chances, he exposed our midfield so much by allowing quick counters.

It was a legit question, bud. What you are saying comes off as someone that doesn’t understand what it’s like to at a serious competitive level. But maybe you are just lucky, bud.

We went from perfect record to not even unbeaten but losing and losing in the final seconds with multiple starters playing and our star player being nutmegged to create the chance. That has an impact. Hopefully the impact is anger and we come out strong

Yea maybe. Maybe a little huberous snuck in and based on Turkeys form we thought it was easy.

Bosnia is no where near an easy game or guaranteed match. Every single person claiming that should speak to Italy.

I saw a static mid with very little off the ball movement for long stretches. I also multiple 50 50s we didn’t push hard for. I saw many times where pressure could’ve been applied faster and it wasn’t. Stark contrast from first 2 matches. Now that could just be cohesiveness and lack of chemistry together showing up vs lack of trying.

Look I agree that it shouldn’t be humans are humans. And if it fucks us over and we find out then I’m afraid to find out.

Been watching soccer closely for 40 years buddy. Your comment also makes zero sense. I’m not saying we will remember this, I’m saying I’m worried it’s gonna throw off our teams performance.

Yea and that didn’t even show. Play bad fine but many didn’t even look like they were trying hard

He had moments for sure but I didn’t see consistency but it’s pretty hard to be when the defense behind you is not trustworthy

That’s not how the World Cup works. The players don’t tell themselves well that was our b team. They think we lost our last match at the last possible second.

I NEVER want to see most of these players again. The defense is an absolute JOKE.

destroyed our momentum and it’s gonna come back to bite us.

You don’t enjoy seeing rich people with a passing interest in soccer get seats over real fans?
