Guess you missed the part where I said everyone but Dempsey and Bradley were poo poo. Unless you think Jozy was good this tournament. But then you'd probably be 51-50'd after that.

Depmsey is bad, I actually like Bradley but he's been poo poo since he moved to Canada, surprise surprise playing with wastemen every week is detrimental to your game.

Don't forget his disgusting nepotism in in playing his son.

Also seriously I think Klinsman just doesn't understand defense on a fundamental level... like at all which sort of makes sense since he played forward his entire career and I feel he focuses too much on attacking rather than defending.

In the last year we had,

Jermaine Jones a BBM being converted into a CB who tried to play hero ball out of the back,

A 3-5-2 to get more guys into the attack even though the only people who might be able to pull that off are Johnson & Yedlin because Chandler and Garza certainly can't.

Calling up guys like Alvarado & Ream (Who used to play CB in MLS) who primarily play LB for their to play as Center-backs, over guys like Besler hell even Orozco who are actually center-backs.

Keeping playing loving Chandler who can bomb forward and occasionally get assists, but utterly fails in both possession and defense... so that loving Yedlin as a winger is tracking back to cover him.

Finally playing RCB/LCB like they are different positions meaning he won't play Brooks & Gonzalez together... you know the only pure CB's we brought to the Gold Cup, while at the same time having Brooks bomb up the field like a Libero at times.

You guys just suck rear end at football lmao. You lost against loving Jamaica. Maybe make up another gay rear end sport with helmets and poo poo for pussies but this time don't let it be taken over by Africans like every one of your fake sports. Get the f*ck out of my face, bro.

He's trying guys out, niwrad. Although a result like that looks humiliating , it's little more than a Friendly tournament, signifying nothing. Hell, they beat Germany and Netherlands in friendlies last month.

Remember that before a miracle goal against Caribbean power Trinidad & Tobago in 1989, the U.S. hadn't qualified since 1950. Then they stunk like poo poo in Italy '90.

It's a harsh reality we have to face. I can't even begin to imagine what it's like for fans of teams that didn't make it out of the group stage at the WC. Are they going to take up lawn bowling?

That worked fine in 1950. Point being that it's a funny old game which the U.S. are still on the upward end heading toward outlier country and maybe, who knows, bats. What I'm saying is we need gonzo journalism in the USMNT more than a coaching change.

We are not the best team in the world, but I don't think expecting to beat everyone that isn't Mexico handily is unreasonable.

You think a team of MLS players + a few from second-tier euro leagues should handily beat a team of Championship/MLS players + a few from second-tier euro leagues.

Aside from Bradley and Dempsey, I don't think the gap is that big.

This is honestly the first time Jamaica has had their poo poo together in like 15 years. They've always been a team with raw talent and athleticism, but never put it together as a team. They've always had Premier League and Championship players all over their roster, but never did anything with it. Maybe it was most of the guys still having a residual England taint?
