Jermaine Jones and Stuart Holden have impressed. Michael Bradley is boring as crap to watch. Definitely like the move of Maurice Edu to the back line. Anybody else been watching these friendlies?
-
That game was boring as crap last night.

jfc. at the end of that game i was like 4 more years of bob bradley :goodbyecruelworld:
maybe he'll get fired when Mexcio beats us by 3 goals in the final of next years Gold Cup. :crossfingers:

Was kinda hoping for a Colombian OG mixed with some cartel confusion that ended up with Bradley getting the raw end of :chainsaw:

Davies' wait for first-team action ends with loan from Sochaux to D.C. United (http://www.soccerbyives.net/soccer_by_ives/2011/02/davies-road-leads-back-to-dc.html)
-
will be nice to see CD playing again. and with DC we'll get to see some of it on tv. maybe he'll also be called into camp for the gold cup this summer.
-
Dude, did you see that one guy get kicked in the shin, act like someone shot him, get carried off on a stretcher, and return to play like 2 minutes later? That was awesome.

:horrorsurprise:
-
jozy! still waiting for him to score a goal but that was a nice play. god bless him going to Turkey to get some PT
-
Teal Bunbury will be a force to be reckoned with come cup time. He gave Manchester United some issues with his size/speed and he's got a good knack for the back of the net.
Too bad he dislocated his elbow the other day in a preseason game. He's gonna be fracking awesome
-
im stoked about bunbury
with jozy developing in turkey, and agudelo at red bulls, our strikers are looking promising
not to mention young guys at other positions like diskerud, agbossoumonde, and lichaj
hopefully davies gets back to form and we keep getting better and more talented
-
I feel like our potential USA players are choosing us over other countries more and more these days. This can only be a good sign.
-
I know they were young, like 18 or something, but i want to see more of those 2 kids that combined to score against south africa in the friendly a few months back. some of the fanciest play i've ever seen from americans.

ussf will mind eff these youngins into not scoring goals for years to come. i like them but i am not optimistic about any of these young players turning into goal scorers in the international or club game.

i would think that he is talking about bunbury, mwanga and najar
we are getting the kids with dual citizenship that show a lot of promise. gonna need that to happen with hurzeler (pretty much a done deal, but you never know *cough man of taste and distinction rossi cough*).

najar hasn't committed has he? he isn't even a u.s. citizen as of yet. mwanga's wiki page also says he's not a citizen. i'm sure he'll choose usa over congo if our Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) immigration processes don't stop him from becoming a citizen.
rossi and subotic are 2 huge misses that will always haunt.

yeah najar and mwanga havent officially committed. pretty much assumption at this point. i think i will always be the most bitter over rossi :C
i think we play argentina coming up in march correct?

Yes, this. Thanks, took me a bit to respond. Some are implied but I think we're going to be good on many kids down the line as well.

i have to keep reminding myself that int'l friendlies are pretty pointless. if timmy murdered his entire defense following the match in plain sight, i still think he could escape a trial. not that we were keeping possession when we weren't being clownsuited to help them out, though.

That was pretty Dempsey.

good result i guess. thank god for Tim Howard. trade keepers and who knows what the result would be. :blank:

Our defensive backs did well as a group for a lot of the game and then started to fall apart towards the end. Overall the team played good aggressive soccer which made it fun to watch, but that back line is definitely the weak spot.
-
the whole team looked like crap at the end. maybe because of the bush league subs that came in. edu looked okay i guess but wondo and sasha did nothing
-
We have such terrible tactics. Michael Bradley is great though. Only thing that keeps us from being complete crap. Everyone else just gets the ball and then tries to run with it as fast as possible towards the other end. No controlling of the game, no build up, which is what we should do against the likes of Canada. Obviously when we play Spain and other good teams we should sit back and play on the counter attack. Sometimes we play like it's american football, and everyone thinks they are the running back.

Anyone got any extra tickets? I sat on buying tickets and now the only ones left are $80+
-
I wasn't planning on going since I'm already going to the game tonight, but I was gifted a pretty good ticket from another fan. Don't think I've ever gone to a game alone, especially 2 hours away, but the ticket is good enough I think I may go for it. If anybody has extra room in their ride or would want to ride up with me just let me know.
Also, I know a guy selling 2 seats in the members section for $75. If anybody wants them I can contact him for you.

That's for both. Let me know if you want them and I'll check to make sure he still has them. As of yesterday he does. Also, not sure if you're going to the game tonight or not but you could probably meet him there to pick them up.

This. Silver lining: Now the US are in a must-win situation with Guadalupe. As pissed as I am, I'm happy that Bradley's going to have to play his best players in KC. I wasn't looking forward to watching Dempsey, Donovan, and Howard sitting on their asses. :dubious:

This loss was definitely good for KC. Really can't believe how badly they played tonight, but it was still a really entertaining game to watch. Hopefully they bring the effort they showed in the second half with them Tuesday.

go Guadalupe. fire Bradley

i've been trying to remain positive but it's really hard. i think i might hate this team. it isn't even like a "well, we just need to shore up our defense" or "we're just missing a piece or two". someone please talk me down.

wish i could, but we are lacking in so many areas
most importantly a playmaker. wish we had someone young like germany has in gotze, schurrle, kroos or even marco rough ridin' marin
-
Yeah I officially hate this team. The greatest moment in recent US soccer was pretty much a luckbox break that exemplified our complete inability to do anything creative with the ball.

If we had another competent central midfielder, Michael Bradley is that play maker. He's strong on the ball and has great passing ability. Problem is, he's usually too busy putting out fires thanks to our shitty defenders and useless cunts like Jermaine Jones to focus primarily at building our attacks. And Bob Bradley's tactics sucks.
tl;dr: we need to groom better defenders before we'll ever be consistent and good.

good point. bradley has been pretty impressive, and with a little more playing time overseas, he very well could be our most important player.
i'd like to see players like diskerud, chandler, and lichaj get some solid time. bradley and holden actually give us a pretty formidable central midfield.

Agreed (especially on Diskerud). And what ever happened to Jose Fransisco Torres? I remember him playing well in the friendlies leading up to the World Cup, played against Slovenia but had to be subbed when we were down 2-0 at halftime because we needed more fire power

im sure sure, but i think its puzzling that he's not even on the GC roster. he has been good in his caps for the US, and do we really think that sacha and bedoya are better options?
-
Probably a pretty noob thing for me to say but I think it's pretty neat how many foreign sounding names we have one the US team. Melting pot and all that.
-
rough ridin' Dempsey. :facepalm:
-
eff Clint Dempsey and eff Bob Bradley. So glad I didn't pay money to see this crap.
-
i'm glad nobody was able to talk me down. holy crap this team is rough ridin' awful. michael bradley (as usual lately, it seems) was about the only person who didn't seem to crap their pants when he got the ball. lichaj seemed to do alright - i admittedly haven't seen him play much for villa but at this point, he seemed like a decent option back there.
should've ended about 5-2 or so. i can't see us being better than about any halfway serious team in any position groups from here on out - bob bradley better hope the tophat embedded firmly in his ass is fully stocked with rabbits.
-
I can't believe the suckers in Kansas City gave that shitty performance a standing ovation. I wish this was in LA or DC, that garbage would have been booed off of the pitch. I wouldn't be so frustrated if this was a team that should be in a 1-0 game against Guadaloupe, the talent while not great is so much better than that. Bradley is so stale and his players won't play for him, they look bored.
BTW I'm sick of watching Dempsy go down like a Spainard every time someone gets within 5 feet of him. Has there been a time since the Confed Cup that he's had the ball at his feet and didn't end up on the ground?

He didn't end up on the ground when he had the ball at his feet like 6 ft from the goal. :shakesfist:

Meh, the finishing was insanely bad, but other than that I thought it was a decently entertaining game to watch. I wish they would have shown the Can/Pan game though.
They should really replace Bradley before qualifications start for the world cup. The team needs some sort of identity and he obviously doesn't have the answer. He was a safe choice, but they continue to personify mediocrity. There has to be someone better for the right price.
The Good:
Jozy is really starting to show what he can do when he's physical and confident. Cherundolo did really well tonight, he was all over the place. Bedoya came in for Wondolowski and did a great job.
The Bad:
Wondolowski. I am not a fan. He may prove me wrong, but I just don't like him and his face annoys me. Dempsey also sucked/was annoying, but it's hard to completely turn your back on a guy with that much talent. I feel like if he went all out he would be amazing to watch, but lately it seems like he just wants to walk around and fall down a lot unless there's a good chance he'll score.
Jamaica is playing really well so the US could be bounced easily if they don't step it up. If they lose I hope Bob is canned.

How does the Gold Cup bracket work?
Not exactly in bracket form but you can see the rest of the schedule here:
http://www.goldcup.org/page/GoldCup/LiveConsole/0,,12802,00.html
Basically if we win against Jamaica, we'll play the winner between Panama & El Salvador. If we win that we will most likely play Mexico in the finals.
-
-Lichaj needs to be our everyday LB. His attack paired with Dolo made us pretty dangerous.
-Wondo should never earn a cap for this team again. Agudelo would have been so much better last night.
-Off games for Bradley, Demps (good lord) and Landycakes. Obviously not the norm for them.
That said, Guadeloupe is just god awful, and we should have won at least 3-0.
It needs to be Altidore and Agudelo up top going forward.

-Wondo should never earn a cap for this team again. Agudelo would have been so much better last night.

MIR is the most angry BBS'r in the history of the world.
I had a blast last night. Very frustrating at times. Dolo gets man of the match for me, his runs were amazing. Wondo needs to be gone, just like Ream (not even on the 18 anymore?). Just last year we had Buddle and Findley, its amazing how fast we run through strikers up top w/ Jozy. One of them has to stick. Crowd was bananas, hopefully we get more games there.
-
something is wrong w/ Donovan. he's either injured or lovesick again. goddammit, landon, get over that $!#*.
-
Can't believe we didn't see Agudelo last night. Inexcusable.
-

...
Crowd was bananas, hopefully we get more games there.
Cherundolo is amazing. it was just something like 2 years ago when everyone thought Spector had replaced him at right back. but Stevie is now playing the best football i've ever seen him play. it will be hard for anyone in the system to replace him until his legs give out.
the crowd was fun last night and that is a class venue. the standing O i think had more to do w/ the experience in general and the appreciation for the opportunity that was given to KC to host this game.
-
It's amazing how much better Michael Bradley is than everyone else. Altidore and Dempsey (barring last night) are obviously the biggest threats to score, but Bradley is miles ahead of anyone else in that team. He almost looked Paul Scholes-esqe at times.
Wondolowski is terrible.
Jones is garbage. Why doesn't Edu-Bradley or even Klejstan-Bradley not start in CM?
If Dempsey puts 2 of those 5 or 6 clear chances in, we aren't complaining today.
That said, Bob Bradley isn't improving this team. We need a Guss Hidink.
-
something is wrong w/ Donovan. he's either injured or lovesick again. goddammit, landon, get over that $!#*.
Agreed. That passion that he showed in the world cup isn't there. The "I let my team down, so I'm going to take over this crap" attitude isn't there. Complacency from playing in the MLS? He should have stayed at Everton

i thought it was obvious after last year's world cup that Edu/Bradley was the best pairing if you wanted to play 2 defensive minded center mids.
hopefully by the next world cup Holden and Davies will be healthy and in form. then the midfield + forward pairing would be Donovan/Dempsey/Bradley/Holden in the midfield and Davies/Altidore up top.
-
i really want to get timothy chandler cup-tied
him, dolo, lichaj, and boca going forward would be good for me until we need to replace boca
I think donovan was blocked from going back to Everton by the Galaxy. Its a shame, because not only did they love him over there, but he was so much better.
As i stated before, Lichaj, Chandler, Diskerud, Agudelo, Jozy, Holden, Edu, Bradley, Bunbury, and (please god) Davies are the future, and I feel pretty ok with that. We just need a few more pieces and a new coach. I really wish Subotic and Rossi weren't world-class fuckheads, because that would put us in pretty good shape.

If Edu/Bradley is playing 2 defensive mids, then what is Jones/Bradley? At least Edu doesn't piss down his leg all the time like Jones.
that was my point. if you were going to play to defensive mids then why not use a combo you know works well w/ Edu/Bradley. i think Jones is a more talented player than Edu but maybe he just doesn't fit in as well at this point.

speaking of Jones here's a write up on another American-German / German-American

The USA also needs to find and groom some proper wingers. I don't think we've ever had a real out and out winger.

do demarcus beasley and cobi jones not count?

Yeah I guess Beasley would be. I remember them sticking him at left back a bunch though. Cobi Jones played all over the midfield.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DaMarcus_Beasley
In a 2010 World Cup qualification fourth-round game against Trinidad and Tobago, Beasley went the full ninety minutes at left back. Beasley remarked that this was the first time in his career he had played an entire game at the position.
http://espn.go.com/blog/los-angeles/soccer/post/_/id/7194/cobi-jones-first-ballot-hall-of-famer
Cobi Jones, the speedy winger who played more international games than any other American, was a no-brainer. So was Eddie Pope. And Dutch-born Earnie Stewart certainly was deserving after missing the cut twice before.
-
Yeah having Chan, Torres, Holden, Davies, etc. would be great. At the end of the day all of the talent won't change the fact that tactically we are the most boring, passive, unimaginative side in the world. I'm so pissed because I wasn't upest that Bradley kept his job after the World Cup because I thought he would mix it up a bit, crap we're siginificantly worse. It's somewhat ironic that once he is canned, his son will be better off.

US U20 head coach Thomas Rongen revealed to YA a major announcement today that Bayern Munich and German youth international Fabian Hürzeler will change his affiliation and represent the US.
"We got a commitment actually today for Fabian Hürzeler, the captain of the German [U17] team and he plays for Bayern Munich," Rongen told YA in Atlanta. "He's going to be part of our January camp. That's pretty nice news."
"Like Alex Zahavi, Hürzeler is fluent in English," he continued. "These guys, they're excited about the opportunity. They're honored. But these aren't easy decisions. This guy played for the German youth teams from U15 to U19. We'll keep pushing the envelope. We'll keep finding players that hopefully can help us."
Hürzeler, 17, was born in Houston but was raised in Germany where he has developed into an elite prospect. Over the summer he was also promoted to the reserve team of Bayern Munich despite being eligible to play for the U19 team for two more years. He is the youngest player on the reserve team.
The central midfielder will now be leaving the German setup for that of the US. He will be eligible for the 2011 and 2013 U20 World Cups with the Stars and Stripes.
Since he has played for Germany in official youth national team competitions, Hürzeler will need to file his one-time switch of federations with FIFA if he wants to play for the US in U20 qualifying or the U20 World Cup. He will not need to file the switch for the January U20 camp or to play in any friendlies.
As for whether or not there would be other players in addition to Hürzeler and Zahavi that would switch national teams to play for the US, Rongen did offer a hint.
"There are three or four other guys that I've approached that play at a high level that have represented other countries in qualifying games," he concluded.

And they didn't even dress him for the cup. Let him wear the captain's armband right after the WC for their B squad and ten sat him for the second half. They treat him like a second class citizen. (aside here) Why is Italy still so racist?

Per the Royals' analogy, he's the prospect that bolts for the Yankees.

Game reminder:
US v. Jamaica - 2pm Sunday on Fox Soccer Channel (pregame starts at 1:30 I believe)
I looked last night and it wasn't showing up in the cox guide but I double checked and it's supposed to be on FSC.
Anybody know why ESPN or ABC didn't pick up these games after group play? I would think this game tomorrow would pull in good ratings.

shameful dive from jermaine jones leaves jamaica a man down. can't wait to see a superman .gif
i thought it was a div at first but replays have shown that his ankle did get clipped.
jones did embellish to make sure it was called and could have kept his feet if he wanted to. no Jamaican player argued emhpasizing that it was the correct call.
-
haven't seen any of the footage that came out showing he was clipped yet. it was an obvious attempt to chop him down so no argument is only natural. i guess if jones did get nicked i'd love for there to be some basis to red the jamaican dude and yellow jones. obviously never going to happen but i hate crap like that. jones was putting on his cape either way - sounds like he just got lucky to get brushed.
-
haven't seen any of the footage that came out showing he was clipped yet.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3Ic5cl1yj0
That video shows it, but it looks like he could have easily stayed up if he wasn't looking to dive at the first hint of contact.
I know he had a good game, but that dive and a few other things he did during the match made him look like a huge doucher.
-
thanks j-v - forgot to scope it out after work. letter of the law i guess you've gotta book the guy. leaves a sour taste in my mouth though - simulation that by happenstance forced some contact vs. just embellishing contact. he did have a pretty good game - you hate to see him resort to that crap.
guess i need to move past it - anxious for wednesday now. :party:
-
by rule of law it's not embellishment if contact was made

Seemed to play a couple nice balls, but that one was pretty amazing. Really rooting for him to make a comeback.
-
michael bradley looked like ass. his dad's tactics seemed like a fail until Adu checked in. i was hoping to see Adu go in for him but replacing Agudelo seems like it did the trick.
jones looked great. was nervous about him getting a yellow. lichaj and dolo again great at fullback. feeling much better about the back line w/ boca inside providing some maturity in central defense. however, i'm still not sold using Jones/Bradley together.
i have to miss the final on Saturday for a HS reunion. it might be difficult to avoid score until i get to watch replay. the mexico/honduras game last night on Univision looked amazing compared to fox soccer. maybe i'll record and watch on uni so i don't have to listen to that muppet, jp dellacamera
-
So the game on Saturday? Jones and Bradley looked like they switched bodies yesterday, but both still need to start. Is the Klejstan experiment over or do we keep Donovan as an impact sub for the 2nd half? I think Agudelo should still start up top on his own, then go to Adu again if necessary. We've played our best against Jamacia and Panama2, so the line up probably shouldn't change.
Howard
Dolo-Goodson-Boca-Lichaj
Bradley-Jones
Klejstan-Dempsey-Bedoya
Agudelo
Bring on Donovan at halftime or 50-55 mins for Klestan or Bedoya, whoever is playing worse
Edu on if Bradley or Jones are having bad games
Adu on for Agudelo if we are tied or behind late on.
-
you have to start Donovan against Mexico. pull Klejstan who i thought got dominated in the midfield last night. Donovan should have fresh legs while Mexicans had to face 120 minutes of 2 footed tackling last night. Honduras was playing dirty.
keep Agudelo up top and if they need offense in the 2nd half bring Adu in for him and move Dempsey up top again. if they still need more offense bring in Sasha for Bradley/Jones (whoever is playing w/ a Yellow).
-
Anyone watch Mexico last night? We'll have our hands full, especially mid-field. And Chicharito.
-
Effing Chicharito and his stupid haircut stealing our Chicano prospects.

Adu on for Agudelo if we are tied or behind late on.
top strategy right here. i do think that we might be best served to start adu (maybe instead of klejstan?), since he is our most creative player on the roster at this point.
jones is a must because mexico will get physical, and we need to keep someone watching hernandez.
also, that backline has been so solid, especially with lichaj and boca sparking our attack channel through the wings.
-
Adu was nice last night, but lets not get carried away. He should play a role, but a good 25 minutes doesn't mean he should start.

true. but what has Klejstan/Bedoya done to deserve starts?

i would not be sad to never again see klejstan - i know he has his fans but i'm not one of them. i don't think bedoya has been too bad really. i don't mind him seeing some time on the field.
-

Klejstan - nothing really
Bedoya - has had good control, runs, ball movement, and had a couple good chances on goal (although he failed to put them away).
I guess I wouldn't totally be against Adu for Klejstan, but would prefer Donovan if we do remove Klejstan, and still keep Adu as a 2nd half sub.

2005 Anderson
2007 Toni Kroos

at this rate id considering holding them to fewer than 3 goals a success. our offense HAS to create opportunities

Let's not forget Luis Suarez won a World Cup quarterfinal game for Uruguay v. Ghana by doing that.

That late in the game, it would have been a reasonable risk to take. Yeah, you're a man down but the dude just may miss the PK or the goalie may get lucky. :dunno:

a weak back line made even weaker by an injury 10 minutes in and a Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) decision by the coach to replace the injured player with the worst possible choice. Mexico has some good players but to give up 4 goals, even with a depleted back line, is inexcusable. Bradley should be fired but he won’t.
Adu, Donovan and Dempsey all looked good. everyone in the defense behind them looked terrible. coach's son looked terrible all tournament. Jones didn't look great. it's hard to play w/ the 2 of them together in midfield as they offer little in the attack. but the back 4 is so bad you have to protect them with that extra layer of defense in front of them. but Jones and Bradley did nothing to help them.
I Feel great for Mexican fans who should all feel excited about a team with an incredible attack. They have some of the same problems in defense as USA but seem to have a little more depth and a better defensive midfield to take some of the pressure off of them.
since the successful run (is winning 2 games against Egypt & Spain considered a successful run?) in the Confederations cup the USA has been pretty bad. a lot of this is due to injury and a lack of depth: Onyewu, Holden, Davies, Jones were all potential starters going into the World Cup last year but were unavailable due to injury. Jones is the only one back in the team and he hasn't proven to bring too much to the table. i guess it's hard to be too tough on Coach Bradley given this rash of injuries but I have no faith in him regardless of the player's he has available for selection.

Oguchi Onyewu is the latest enhancement of Sporting. The central defender has signed a U.S. valid contract with the "lions" for the next three seasons.
In exclusive statements to the newspaper Sporting defender for 29 years reveals his ambition. "I come to win at Sporting."
Read the interview with Onyewu in the next edition of the newspaper that puts all green on white.

The only call that was terrible in retrospect was the non-offside call on the Marta goal. The red card was iffy and the encroachment on the PK was legit.

Encroachment was the call? Why was the card given to the keeper? And there's a difference between legit and what is traditionally a penalty. It doesn't matter if a rule is on the books that's never called strictly. When you make a strict call like that it lends itself to questions regarding your intent/motives.

It doesn't matter if a rule is on the books that's never called strictly. When you make a strict call like that it lends itself to questions regarding your intent/motives.
I think the keeper got carded for running her mouth. From what I've seen, many of the female referees don't handle criticism well.

No one was "running" their mouth until after the terrible call.

Oh Hope got in the refs crap about that call. I have yet to see what the call was. Yes there was a play encroaching at the top of the box, but that is rarely called. She could have yellow carded Solo for coming off the line too I think for a delay. We also don't know if the ref called the reshot on hope 'coming off her line' but that would be one of the most disastrous calls in world cup if that were true.
Love the fact that everyone of the Brazil PKs their goalie was completely off line, so I'm glad they went advantage on 4/5 shots.

To be fair, the US did get a rekick on the only shot the Brazil goalkeeper stopped because of that.
-
If you watch the PKs over, the Brasil keeper, though less egregiously, did the same thing on every PK. Bottom line, all indications are that the yellow given to the american keeper was for coming off the line, which she did not. It was a bad call. If the americans had lost, it would be a crap storm of epic proportions. Brasil scored zero legitimate goals.

that is why i said 4/5, I wasn't very clear there
the offsides no call on the cross to Marta was rough ridin' horrible. All tournament they have been making tight calls which err on the defensive side, and the lineswoman blows that one hard.
We got away with the intentional hand ball too with whats her face carrying the yellow.
I really think these refs were just horribly incompetent and didn't know how to handle Brazil getting in their grill till the end of the game when the yellows started flowing. I mean if I issued a yellow and than the player was still jawing at me and touched me I would drop a straight red and skip a soft red.

Yeah, I just watched the replay and you are correct. Pretty baffling.
Jesus were Tortuga and I the only people that saw the ESPN iso shot of USA encroaching the box before Marta took the PK? It may have been ticky tack, but it was clearly encroachment. Solo got the yellow for bitching to the referee's assistant. There is no yellow card for a keeper coming off of the line early, hence no yellow card for the Brazilian keeper for being called for coming off the line during the shootout. Dumbasses.

The game was insanely entertaining, it had everything you could ask for from a fans perspective.
It's easy to concentrate on the bad calls, but the feeling of winning despite them made it all worth it. Seeing the crowd completely turn against Brazil was also a nice bonus in a time where the US isn't very popular.
For the people saying the encroachment call was legitimate, you're obviously right but when they don't make that call 99% of the time you can understand why people feel like somethings up. If you watch it in real time there was almost no gap from the kick to when she took a step inside the box.

youre an idiot if you think there aren't rules on the book to give refs the authority to caution players. Maybe you mistook my comment to me saying coming off the line is a caution, I was not trying to make that point. Rather if she was warned before hand don't come off early or cause any delay that could be cardable because you are not obeying a ref.
Also I have yet to see any thing about what was called. Solo didn't know what was called. It was probably the encroachment from on top of the box. That is still a shitty call and the rule is never that strictly enforced. If we are going to get that strict where were all the cards for Brazil's time wasting and flopping? It was just a crap game from that reffing crew.

Obviously you were jacking off or something while watching the game, no big deal I guess you got to get of in when you fit it in I guess. Two things that invalidate your long winded and boring post.
1. We know the ref called encroachment because Hope Solo said the ref told her she called encroachment. It doesn't matter if it was ticky tack, the replay clearly showed encroachment.
2. Erika was given a yellow card for flopping and stalling. The only way you could have missed that is if you were hiding the crusty sock from mommy.

I guess you were too busy with your head up your ass to watch the post game where Hope said she doesn't know what the call was for the rekick.
Brazil was flopping all game, why do you think the entire rough ridin' stadium aside from the Brazil fans were booing or whistling Marta every time she got near the ball the last 40 minutes of game play? Erika was well deserved, but certainly not the only one who should have been cautioned. The refs lost control of the match for a long time in that game.

No one is arguing otherwise. However, it can't be a bad call if its the right call. There were two bad calls, both were big no calls; one was in our favor one wasn't.

The call was correct. It was the card that was baffling. Not that a yellow card against a goalkeeper is going to mean anything, anyways.

you are aware that the goalie coming off the line and the outside players coming into the box are both encroachment right?

I would most likely agree to that if it was regularly called like that. ESPN was first saying Hope off the line, but they had a great spot shadow of the ref looking directly at a US player with a foot over. My beef is that it is very rarely called that closely. If we are going to have games called that tight, Marta should have been ejected for touching the ref after her yellow and the majority of the Brazilian players would be carrying yellows for the rest of the game for flopping and time wasting.
I think the refs should have made it clear immediately why they were choosing to re-kick that so everyone, players and media knew exactly what the issue was. I don't think the refs were intentionally favoring Brazil, I think they were incompetent and shaken by Brazil getting in their faces.

Well, it doesn't really matter how often the call is made. The ref got the call correct and that call should be made every time. Also, if that call doesn't get made, we don't get the fantastic finish. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOAJn8h6VAI)

Let's bet if she didn't say encroachment was called I'll match all the donations I received to BB/BS and if I don't I'll let the mods ip ban me. If she did say the ref called encroachment you have 2 weeks to donate $100 to my BB/BS pledge sheet or you will be ip banned. Deal?
you are aware that the goalie coming off the line and the outside players coming into the box are both encroachment right? My point is that after the game Solo did not know who was called for encroachment and the refs wouldn't tell her/haven't told team reps. I have never contended it wasn't encroachment for the rekick.
So you taking the bet or not?

No one was "running" their mouth until after the terrible call.
Yeah, I just watched the replay and you are correct. Pretty baffling.
Jesus were Tortuga and I the only people that saw the ESPN iso shot of USA encroaching the box before Marta took the PK? It may have been ticky tack, but it was clearly encroachment. Solo got the yellow for bitching to the referee's assistant. There is no yellow card for a keeper coming off of the line early, hence no yellow card for the Brazilian keeper for being called for coming off the line during the shootout. Dumbasses.

youre an idiot if you think there aren't rules on the book to give refs the authority to caution players. Maybe you mistook my comment to me saying coming off the line is a caution, I was not trying to make that point. Rather if she was warned before hand don't come off early or cause any delay that could be cardable because you are not obeying a ref.
Also I have yet to see any thing about what was called. Solo didn't know what was called. It was probably the encroachment from on top of the box. That is still a shitty call and the rule is never that strictly enforced. If we are going to get that strict where were all the cards for Brazil's time wasting and flopping? It was just a crap game from that reffing crew.
Obviously you were jacking off or something while watching the game, no big deal I guess you got to get of in when you fit it in I guess. Two things that invalidate your long winded and boring post.
1. We know the ref called encroachment because Hope Solo said the ref told her she called encroachment. It doesn't matter if it was ticky tack, the replay clearly showed encroachment.
2. Erika was given a yellow card for flopping and stalling. The only way you could have missed that is if you were hiding the crusty sock from mommy.
I guess you were too busy with your head up your ass to watch the post game where Hope said she doesn't know what the call was for the rekick.
Brazil was flopping all game, why do you think the entire rough ridin' stadium aside from the Brazil fans were booing or whistling Marta every time she got near the ball the last 40 minutes of game play? Erika was well deserved, but certainly not the only one who should have been cautioned. The refs lost control of the match for a long time in that game. If you didn't see that you had your head straight up your ass.

there is nothing to bet. Do you read my posts at all?! You are attempting to argue with me about things which I'm not really contesting. The refs never told anyone who they are calling what on and why Hope got a yellow. Its was a shitty job reffing, can we agree to that?

No I don't agree that the ref did a shitty job with that call. I like everyone else watching was pissed after I saw it. Since then we saw the actual violation, we also heard Solo say the official told her there was an encroachment. I'm pretty sure Solo knew what she said to get a card. What did you want the official to do? Not call what she saw? Draw everyone watching all over the world a diagram that explains the call & the rule? You like the rest of us got hoodwinked because the commentators and Solo thought she was called for coming off of her line. The difference is all of us are using the benefit of technology & retrospect to see the official was right, on that call, & everyone else was wrong.
How was it a shitty job of officiating if she was 100% correct?

Shortly following the post-match news conferences, soccer's often bumbling governing body, FIFA, said it was because Solo went forward before the ball was struck. Replays didn't really support the argument. And, of course, Marta took advantage of the second opportunity.
:facepalm:
FIFA is the world's worst governing body. Even when they eff up they can't give the proper excuse.

and that is why its rough ridin' ridiculous for us to argue about FIFA. I mean if I donated $100 dollars to the pocket of a FIFA official I could have had Solo carded for wearing too many clothes.
I agree that the player on the outside of the box moving in, by the letter of the law is a violation. But its never called. Its like not moving into the lane in NBA ball during a free throw. Just like all the foul throw-ins are not called is akin to traveling in the NBA. Somethings are just let go. Sometimes you just need to swallow the whistle.

While Wynalda was at the U.S. team's hotel to film player interviews before the Gold Cup final, Michael Bradley came at him angrily, poking a finger into his chest and yelling, while accusing Wynalda of saying he should not be on the national team.

Bradley is a jackass. I like his game, but the dude has no head on his shoulders. He has played all over the world, you would think he realizes that the US soccer media is by far the least aggressive. The only reason his dad has a job is because the media here doesn't care enough to put the proper pressure on US Soccer.

i'd say that's a little harsh on Michael Bradley. i still think he is the most promising defensive mid in the system. if the defenders in the U.S. system weren't such a catastrophe he wouldn't have to be covering all over the field.
the soccer media have been really tough on Bob Bradley but like you said the conventional media establishments really don't care. USSF doesn't really care about W/L either. at this point they are happy with WC qualification success and the rest is gravy. i guess my point in context to your post is that the problem doesn't begin w/ Bob Bradley. it ends with him. the whole system needs to be undone. considering all that he may be the best coach for a fundamentally flawed USSF

Can't believe a couple of those tries didn't get in the net :shakesfist:

a lot of attempts on goal in first half - should have been made extra pass on a lot of those.
womback's shot off the under side of the cross bar was a great effort.
obso: switching to Brazil vs Paraguay at halftime. they need to make the field bigger for the men's game. the women seem to play w/ so much more space.

It sucks to lose, but if we're going to it might as well be to a country like Japan. It's not like losing to some European or a N.Korea/Middle Eastern team who's gonna talk about how much the US sucks, it's Japan who all in all seems to like us, plus ever since the a-bomb they're pretty harmless. I kinda compare them to losing to Iowa State, you don't want to lose to them but if you're going to lose to somebody they might as well be it because they know that 9 out of 10 times you'll actully kick their ass and they're so beat down by natural disasters they to happy to just be alive to gloat on the 1 out of 10 they do win.

BRADLEY OUT!!!!!!!!!!! :pbj:
http://www.ussoccer.com/default.aspx
http://www.kansascity.com/2011/07/28/3042764/bradley-out-as-us-coach.html
Who saw this coming?
U.S. Soccer president Sunil Gulati announced today that Bob Bradley has been relieved of his duties as the head coach of the U.S. men’s national team.
“We want to thank Bob Bradley for his service and dedication to U.S. Soccer during the past five years,” Gulati said in a statement. “During his time as the head coach of our men’s national team he led the team to a number of accomplishments, but we felt now was the right time for us to make a change. It is always hard to make these decisions, especially when it involves someone we respect as much as Bob. We wish him the best in his future endeavors.”
This announcement ccame after a meeting at The Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif., among Gulati, Bradley and U.S. Soccer CEO Dan Flynn.
Bradley was named the head coach of the U.S. MNT in January of 2007 and during his five-year tenure compiled a 43-25-12 record. He led the team to a number of accomplishments, including winning the 2007 CONCACAF Gold Cup, finishing second in the 2009 FIFA Confederations Cup, winning their World Cup qualifying group and advancing to the Round of 16 of the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa.
The U.S. Soccer Federation said it will make a further announcement on Friday.

http://www.ussoccer.com/News/Mens-National-Team/2011/07/Klinsmann-Named-Head-Coach-of-US-MNT.aspx
CHICAGO (July 29, 2011) — U.S. Soccer President Sunil Gulati named Jürgen Klinsmann as head coach of the U.S. Men’s National Team today, making him the 35th coach in the history of the program.
“We are excited to have Jürgen as the head coach of our Men’s National Team,” said Gulati. “He is a highly accomplished player and coach with the experience and knowledge to advance the program. Jürgen has had success in many different areas of the game and we look forward to the leadership he will provide on and off the field.”
U.S. Soccer will hold a press conference in New York on Monday, Aug. 1, to formally introduce Klinsmann. Further details regarding the press conference will be released later today.
Klinsmann’s first match in charge of the U.S. National Team will be against Mexico on Aug. 10 in Philadelphia. Tickets are still available for the match and can be purchased at ussoccer.com. Kickoff is set for 9 p.m. ET and the match will be broadcast live on ESPN2, ESPN3.com and Univision. In addition, Univision will air a live pre-game show beginning at 8:30 p.m. ET.
“I am proud and honored to be named the head coach of the U.S. Men’s National Team,” said Klinsmann. “I would like to thank the U.S. Soccer Federation for the opportunity, and I’m excited about the challenge ahead. I am looking forward to bringing the team together for our upcoming match against Mexico and starting on the road toward qualifying for the 2014 FIFA World Cup.”
Klinsmann has been involved in soccer almost his entire life as a player, coach, television analyst and consultant. As a player, Klinsmann was one of the game’s premier forwards and enjoyed a 17-year career that included stints in four major European leagues for a number of clubs, including VfB Stuttgart, Inter Milan, AS Monaco, Tottenham Hotspur and Bayern Munich. One of the most well-known international players of all-time, he earned 108 appearances for Germany and scored 47 goals while helping the team win the 1990 FIFA World Cup in Italy and the 1996 European Championship.
After retiring from professional soccer following the 1998 FIFA World Cup, Klinsmann moved into different areas of the sport. He also moved to the United States with his wife, Debbie, and they currently reside in California with their two children, Jonathan and Laila.
In July of 2004, Klinsmann was named manager of the German National Team. He guided Germany to a 20-8-6 record and a third place finish in the 2006 FIFA World Cup, earning him Coach of the Year honors in Germany. Despite stepping aside as Germany’s manager after the World Cup, he left a foundation for ongoing success, including the core of the German National Team coaching staff and players.
Two years later, Klinsmann took over the head coaching position at Bayern Munich. Under his guidance, Bayern reached the quarterfinal of the UEFA Champions League, losing to eventual champion Barcelona. Overall, his record with Bayern from 2008-09 in all competitions was 25-9-9.
After the match against Mexico, the U.S. will play a pair of friendlies in September, hosting Costa Rica on Sept. 2 at The Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif., before traveling to face Belgium on Sept. 6 in Brussels. Kickoff on Sept. 2 at the National Training Center is set for 8 p.m. PT, and the match will be broadcast live on ESPN2, ESPN3.com and Galavision. Four days later, coverage from King Badouin Stadium begins at 8:30 p.m. local time (2:30 p.m. ET) on ESPN Classic and ESPN3.com. Fans can follow both matches live on ussoccer.com’s MatchTracker and Twitter @ussoccer.

Hiddink was my 1st choice, but Jurgen was my 2nd. Either way, good things will happen. Good things. Find away to make our defense not totally suck (weird, I know another team that needs that :lynchmob:) and we have a shot at beating Mexico next time.

chelsea couldn't afford the buyout that would have come trying to get Hiddink away from Turkey. USSF had no chance.
we play Mexico in about 2 weeks. don't think the it will be the A team so it will take some of the pressure off him.
i'm pretty excited about Klinsmann. it was the expected choice so not too giddy right now. the u-20 and olympic coaching spots are vacant. they might be giving him the power he wanted to remake the whole system. :pray:
also his son is 15 years old :tongue:
-
according to grant wahl, klinsmann will have more control than any coach in USMNT history
i know that really isnt saying much, but it shows that Gulati was willing to compromise

Hiddink's contract is up with Turkey in 2012. If he doesn't qualify for Euro 2012, then he is pretty much done with them. If he qualifies for Euro 2012, he'd be done with them in August 2012.

Missed all but 10 minutes of the game but glad to see Rodgers score, I think he'll be player. Good to see Jose Torres back in the fold. Agudelo is going to be at a big club someday.

it was shocking to see the difference w/ Bradley & Jones off the field. i have no idea what the formation was or who was in what spot. before Clark subbed in for Torres in the 84th minute this is my best guess.
dolo o-fiscal boca castillo
beckerman
rogers donovan torres shea
agudelo
i was also impressed with the organization in the back 4 and what it means to have a mobile CB like Orozco-Fiscal. they were under a lot of pressure and didn't really give up a good chance all night. as is his M.O., Bradley got caught too deep in defense allowing his man to get possession and remain onside.

Fun game to watch today against Slovenia, but that's the first time I've been able to say that in a while. Attacking was a lot better, but there are still too many bad lapses.
Has it been discussed how much better Ian Darke is than John Harkes? We're pretty lucky to have Ian announcing our games.
Fabian Johnson :love:

They have a Hulk :runaway:
He's Brazilian. So, no. Unless this is about pounding all kinds of strange, freaky brazilian pussy. Then, yes.
But does he give 110%?

Lots of smallish communities play soccer, just not past about the 6th grade. If the US could ever get more JH/HS to play soccer it would probably help. If my HS would have had soccer I probably would have played. I don't like to brag, but I was a pretty damn good goalie for my team as a 6th grader :gocho:

We should be better. no question.
BUT, IMO the reason we're not better is that our most gifted athletes aren't playing soccer. It's also a cultural thing. American kids are given plastic basketball goals instead of soccer goals. parking lots, driveways, and blacktops in suburbs and urban cores alike are littered with basketball goals across the country. Soccer fields aren't found in urban cores. It's still a relatively privileged sport that doesn't have a presence within a lot of American culture.

My hometown of 1,400 people had soccer but it was later replaced with flag football. We had the Wichita Wings come to our soccer camp one year when I was really little and I got my picture with Chico Moreira, the greatest soccer player to ever play the game.

Did you actually have competitive soccer for high school (even middle school) aged kids, or was it just some pee wee after school program for grade schoolers?

So so many great soccer players from other countries come from poor areas. Maybe they aren't inner cities. But wgaf. Still similar to Lebron's situation.

GAME TONIGHT :excited:
-
What a terrible first half. Lucky to only be down 1.
-
We're getting massacred. 3-1 isn't telling the whole story. We could easily be down three or four.
Gorgeous run of play by Bradley, Johnson, and Gomez though.
-
Good god. And you expect me to go see you play these crapfests, US soccer? If you played that game in my bathroom, I'd close the door and turn on the fan.
-
Didn't get to watch the first half.
Second half was fun. Lots of opportunities for both teams.
-
Not impressed with the direction of the team in the Brazil match

this kind of sucks IMO. I think it lowers our chance to get a Hex game and it is the last game in this cycle meaning it will more than likely be a meaningless game for us. :frown:

Pretty boring game. If they played as well as they did against Scotland, they would have had nine goals. That team is just awful other than a player or two.
If Gooch never got injured, it would be an entirely different story. But he is rough ridin' terrible.
And Terrence Boyd is going to be great.

Rumors starting to heat up about Clint heading to Liverpool. Thoughts on this move? I think it would be great for US Soccer. Not sure he would score as much at Liverpool competing for time with Suarez/Carroll. Maybe they would play him in an attacking midfielder role?
Personally, I would have preferred that he move to Arsenal but either is better than him rotting away at Fulham where they are very mediocre every year.
-
Those racist pricks won't love him :frown:

$19.99 for the jersey + shorts.
Will report back on quality. (probably not too good)

Why not?
I haven't done any research on this, but I'm guessing it's because their last owners were two Americans who the fans believed bled them dry and drove them close to bankruptcy (I don't know the details). It was then sold to another American (owner of the Red Sox) and they haven't done well since.

http://www.ussoccer.com/News/Mens-National-Team/2012/08/Klinsmann-Names-Roster-for-Aug-15-Friendly-Against-Mexico.aspx
At least Besler and Zusi from Sporting KC get a call up
-
What's weak about that lineup? Those are all good players. Yes it's missing Bradley, Dempsey, Bocanegra, and Cherundolo. But it is still a strong team.
I love Terrence Boyd, and Wondo and Gomez are hot as eff recently. Can't stop scoring goals.
Also, sorry, but the last time you talked like that, you said SKC was going to get destroyed by Seattle in the USOC Final. And we all know how that turned out...

Hey soccer team:
See USA Basketball team

(worried Klinsmann isn't getting this boat righted)

Oh crap. Didn't realize the game is in Mexico City. Yeah you're right Scott. We're going to lose. Probably would lose regardless, but if we field the best possible roster, it wouldn't be ugly.

fact of the matter the B- roster we put out there is going to get smashed by the A- roster Mexico is fielding no matter where it was, and yes I know I was pessimistic about the Seattle game but c'mon now being a KSU Cat fan along with a fan of KC area sports why should I be optimistic?
-
Very true. All that aside, I think Mexico has better talent now anyway. Like our best team isn't as good as theirs. Hopefully that changes by 2014.
-
And we have never won in Mexico against Mexico.
Ever.

Edu is playing CB instead of his usual CM spot...looks like Bes is getting called up for nothing. oh well good experience for Matty, hopefully he impresses Jurgen.

pretty underwhelming after the goal. why the hell did klinsmann start parking the bus? should have been pushing as much as possible, and instead, he brings on edu, who does not keep possession well.

Honestly, I'll bet some people smiled when they read his racism until they thought, "wait a minute, that is racist as crap!" They probably feel really bad and dirty for smiling. Starting a new thread with arsenal/positive vibes would be a great idea and help them forget this horrible and shameful time in their lives.
