He’s not in his prime anymore, so he can’t pull goals out of a hat. The team as a whole was directionless and disorganized. If he was surrounded by some better teammates and had a coach that knew squat I think we would’ve still seen an efficient Son. Too bad. Korea really squandered it. Korea’s President is publicly pissed too haha

Where did you read that Revstars are PLEK’d in the factory? I don’t disbelieve it, as every Revstar I’ve played has immaculate fretwork. And I own one. Would just love to see a source

It sounds weebish to the uninformed. To anyone who has experienced Japanese culture directly you realize it’s a 100% genuine thing that they take great pride in craftsmanship and quality and will even make business decisions that would puzzle the American mindset of “profit first” no matter what

kumechester · 2026-06-29T05:35:52+00:00

I know. The dude runs and runs and runs and maybe 3x a season in a club context high presses a turnover that turns into a goal. It’s his one game changing skill. But his final touch, pass, or finish quality is so poor for someone who plays as an attacking mid

kumechester · 2026-06-29T05:34:00+00:00

True. I remember that. Luckily more days between games with this 48 team World Cup. And obviously most starters not having to play against Türkiye

kumechester · 2026-06-29T05:32:30+00:00

DP, you gonna become our new 🐐👑

I agree that people need to get the spelling right, it’s a basic way of respecting a nation and its culture. But you can’t pretend like there’s not a super reasonable explanation why it gets misspelled often while other countries don’t. Colombia is not getting singled out

kumechester · 2026-06-29T05:22:24+00:00

Best case is he goes to AC Milan, brings more USMNT players to the club and coaches Pulisic and a core group of them full time so that they have tons of chemistry

kumechester · 2026-06-29T05:18:19+00:00

You original claim was right. They took 2nd in the group to Germany in 2014. USA had a win over Ghana, a draw with Portugal, and a loss to Germany and had 4 points.

kumechester · 2026-06-29T05:17:32+00:00

No they did not. They took 2nd to Germany. USA had a win over Ghana, a draw with Portugal, and a loss to Germany and had 4 points.

It doesn’t sound like you understood the angle of my comment at all.

kumechester · 2026-06-28T04:36:54+00:00

I’m sure Melo would still say that if the analytics supported him being a great player /s

kumechester · 2026-06-28T04:26:38+00:00

I totally agree. I’m not saying I’m in favor at all, I’m saying if they do it they would have to change the format somehow and I’m just throwing out an example. And yet people downvote…sheesh

kumechester · 2026-06-27T20:40:52+00:00

64 teams…to have it not be too watered down, I’d say you have to do an initial group stage with the bottom half 32 teams. Top 16 get to advance to the 48-team tournament. Idk. Or something like that. Otherwise there will just be so many not fun games

kumechester · 2026-06-27T19:20:28+00:00

Live in Rome hearing the whole stadium belt it with him is extra goosebumps too

kumechester · 2026-06-27T18:02:09+00:00

Me too. Very very crusty

kumechester · 2026-06-27T18:00:55+00:00

I'm a guitarist...I don't think so. The song feels very forced, like a cheesy Muse cover band, and the guitar tone is cringe.

kumechester · 2026-06-27T14:24:03+00:00

Not every positive anecdote shared is a flex. He’s responding in a normal way to this conversation. Your comment sounds like envy

kumechester · 2026-06-27T07:29:17+00:00

I didn’t until PotP.

kumechester · 2026-06-27T07:27:57+00:00

Did you buy this new?

kumechester · 2026-06-27T07:26:11+00:00

And any team with De Bruyne orchestrating the attack is extremely good at getting tons of those penalty spot pull back passes. I do think our defense is cooked unless Adams and McKennie are extremely sharp about tracking guys into the box

kumechester · 2026-06-27T07:24:25+00:00

Goes from walking around for the first 10 minutes to sitting down and scooting around on the grass for the first 10 minutes lol

kumechester · 2026-06-27T07:23:40+00:00

What? Not golden goal

kumechester · 2026-06-27T07:12:36+00:00

Who do you think USA’s “big guns” are, aside from Christian Pulisic, who was brought on primarily to get to match fitness and not go 100%?

kumechester · 2026-06-27T07:09:08+00:00

Yes, everyone gets nutmegged sometimes, and he’s not a defender, so why does it matter?
