The may be woke but they aren't stupid. European teams scrap ‘One Love’ LGBT rights armband plan at World Cup
US center back positions are suspect. The pace from Dan James and Brennen Johnson will test the back line. I think we put in 2 and give up 1.
Just watched the pregame national anthems. Made me shiver watching the Welsh team and their fans sing the song. No one took a knee. No one did anything other than just sing the national anthem. Maybe we should take a cue from them?
a draw vs wales and a win vs iran puts the US in a good position. i think both teams lose to england and beat iran, comes down to goal differential,imo.
US needs to find a striker for the next WC. The lack of finishing is, well striking It’s not a bad result but it feels like we gave away 2 points with a terrible penalty by Zimmerman.
Fun note: every English Football League (which is the league in both England and Wales) game still is starting with every player taking a knee to demonstrate their resistance to racism.
We need more shots on goal. I think we had one all match. The goal. Didn't have too many shots period. That's just not on the striker. Thought Sargent played well enough. The playmakers need to do a better job too. Maybe could use some Gio Reyna?
I think he has been a bit banged up recently and hasn't played a ton over the last year at a club level due to a series of injuries, although he is healthy enough to bring him.
