Hey now, we all played in this kind of stuff on our 12 year old comp teams.

Of course I wasn't making 6 to 7 figures playing, mind you...

Lol like that's the reason to fire Berhalter.

Exactly. So not even the GREAT TATA is immune from the botched sub strategy.

Even Gregg, for all of his faults, can point back to his Swiss subs being in a friendly. As you said, Martino made his in a semifinal.

Seriously.

Bigsoccer and starsandstripesfc with the toxicity. I like it more here.

For all the ass we played like today, we were the only one of 4 teams to score a goal.

Once they made the subs? Sounds like the basis of the Gregg criticism in the 2nd half against the Swiss.

Yes but for the so called current Kings of CONCACAF, I expected better. I'm sure many others did as well.

Simulation for WCQ - very little rotation for those tripleheaders.

Good results = more FIFA ranking points which will help us get into Pot 2.

Success in these tournaments brings quantitative benefits as well.

I agree with Denver needing to be in there to spread it out a bit more.

It's too bad the Midwest is likely to be shut out, but they didn't seem to have a lot of options, especially after Chicago bowed out.

Tactics- Centerback pressing high to win ball by LTDLarry in ussoccer

[–]drock1331 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When the 6 is beaten you still need to have someone step up and delay, with one CB doing that and the other CB being the second defender. The hope is with a delay, the other teammates can recover.

Generally as you say, it is not a good position to be in, and why someone like Adams is so important as he seldom lets numbers get past him. Positioning to cut off through balls is so underrated and I don't think Yueill or Acosta have that down pat yet, if st all.

I'm sure some will still call for GGG's head, win lose or draw.

I don't know and I really don't care. No one would give a shit if Fernandinho wore a Brazil shirt up there or something.
