This team is not gonna do jack poo poo in 2026; I don't believe they would qualify if we weren't a host.

Wasnt really expecting the US issue to be the backline forgetting how to mark players on crosses 4 years to find a couple of centerbacks and a striker to go with the rest of this group

Honestly that last goal looked nothing like the defense the USA showed in the group stage. I would’ve said that their strength against England and Iran was a solid back line and marking that never allowed for a free look at goal. Somehow everyone just like…short-circuited

Somehow everyone just like…short-circuited Robinson just didnt see him and i guess couldnt hear turner. The core of the team is good but you're not getting far without a functional striker and playing a cb combo of walker zimmerman and tim ream (who had a good tournament but..) Getting out of the group was nice at least

Ream is dead now, so that solves itself, but Zimmerman is bad, really bad. Lack of a real striker has been the issue forever. I didn't expect anything more than getting out of the group so it's good experience for a mostly young team.

Wasn’t a total humiliation but it wasn’t that far off either. the lack of a natural finisher made this tournament hard on us but the reason we lost the game was defensive errors. All three goals came from late runs into the box nobody tracked. Bummer

I think there is a decent chance one of our 20~ year old striker prospects come good but who knows really. I'm less worried about cb, our 2 best options were at home injured and more will come along. That midfield could be a monster come 26, and theres a lot more talent coming up. Hopefully we can get into some version of copa america to play some competitive matches against anyone besides concacaf

I didn’t think we would make it out of the group, but this 16 knock out game has really left a bad taste in my mouth. Greg has got to go.

I would have brought at least one of them over haji but it was a bunch of bad choices. sargent would have done a better job than ferreira probably but not exactly a world beater either

Sargent is good at the pressing, running around but terrible at finishing. I still do not know how Jordan Morris got called him when he was not doing anything for his club team besides being hurt recently.

I do not have nearly as much of an issue with Berhalter as a lot of people but his loyalty to Morris has always been one of his most frustrating decisions. we should have brought pepi but he was dogshit for a year and most of his goals lately are poo poo goals against poo poo teams so i somewhat get it. hopefully he turns out to be the real deal and the situation is different next cycle.

Although idk what the actual ratio/stats are for open play vs set pieces Something like 1-2% of corners ever result in goals. More consistent delivery would have been helpful, but some people would have you believe that was our undoing rather than the Dutch having superior players and coaching.

Oh huh, I thought it was higher - probably a holdover from that mid 2000s - early 2010s period of international football where it felt like all teams were scared to score from open play and only wanted to win a set piece.

thought the performance was mostly good today. theres a lot of talent in this usa side. 2026 could be an important year if the trend continues. i dont want to like him but pulisic has a good mentality. i think weah might go on to be a pretty solid player too. definitely need better finishing in this side though
