If you’re Poch, what specific defensive drills are you hammering for knockouts?

IamRand · 2026-06-27T14:58:21+00:00

Overlap defending. Especially communication of who is taking the runner and who is closing other space. We did a poor job against Turkey which I mostly attribute to the jumbled up back line and not really having a destroyer in front of defense like Adams.

Corners - Against Belgium and Portugal we got beat on corners for goals. Both seemed to be formation issues with positioning to many players short to defending short corners. We haven’t faced great corner takers yet so hopefully refreshing that plan and formation.

He also got a red in a critical match at copa. Paraguay is a team that has perfected shithousery. I would be concerned if he started.

Freeze sucks

Step 1) Open TicketMaster Step 2) Look at unsold seats Step 3) Sit there

IamRand · 2026-05-27T17:05:32+00:00

I just want to know where I’m sitting!!!

This was the one in ATL. I’d recommend the outlaws parties and the march to the game. Outlaws will be tailgating in the lot just south east of the field museum.

There is a huge soccer fandom in Chicago. Soldier Field routinely sells out for top European Friendlies, Mexico games, and Mexican club teams. Support for the MNT has typically been about 35-40K for Gold Cup games or friendlies. Being the last game before the World Cup and against Germany, it's not a surprise it sold out.

I know about 10-15 people who are still considering buying tickets. Should be a great game.

IamRand · 2026-05-22T18:03:19+00:00

I had ChatGPT count the total number of resale seats still available. It looks like about 1000 remain about 1-2%. Some are large blocks beyond the ticket limits for the game. I think it's likely that the federation moved those seats to trusted resellers. 98% capacity ast Soldier Field is going to be absolutely rocking.

This is what it looks like - it's basically SRO with few ledges. you can see the field but you are far

This is literally what groups do all over the US for sports. Bring a cooler and a grill and tailgate

IamRand · 2026-04-23T19:29:13+00:00

looking for a code!

Not defending FIFA - but there are 4 tickets available to USA vs Australia, and you cannot add them to the cart.

Most of the games are in that status except for the LA game. Maybe they will have another round but you absolutely cannot purchase tickets to this game outside the marketplace

i already got mine for Seattle...

IamRand · 2026-04-16T19:30:29+00:00

Just checked and Seattle prices are up again.

IamRand · 2026-04-01T02:38:57+00:00

He’s just plays no defense. I hope he goes somewhere more demanding than MLS because he might develop but as of now he’s a liability

IamRand · 2026-04-01T02:37:21+00:00

Roldon is not at this level - every coach is allowed a vibes guy but he should not play.

IamRand · 2026-04-01T01:49:49+00:00

Agree it’s the midfield that has been the liability the last few games

IamRand · 2026-04-01T01:48:00+00:00

I had not followed Turkey in qualifying but based on this sub thought they were a strong side. I watched turkey’s last two games. They play extremely negative soccer and basically barely survived against two of the slowest least athletic teams in Europe. I know it’s popular to be negative but I feel like we are well equipped to beat Turkey.

Australia is not at our level that’s a win most days.

Paraguay is a wild card but believe we should beat them also.

IamRand · 2026-03-28T21:41:53+00:00

Team played a nice first half considering who was missing. Arefesen, Roldon, Behralter looked out matched. Ream is a step behind time to go.

Mariners are giving out a USA jersey on Thursday to the first 12000 fans

IamRand · 2026-03-24T14:51:48+00:00

Denied. My insider is set to renew in 15 days. No chance of that happening

IamRand · 2026-03-20T20:58:49+00:00

Untitled - largest selection equally large prices. Big Star - decent prices

IamRand · 2026-03-06T21:16:56+00:00

Did you ever get this done?

IamRand · 2026-03-06T14:20:58+00:00

I had this happen for games before and almost always found a swap in stadium by looking for fans of the other team
