USA vs. Portugal

4-5-1? Look, I know CR7 is a force of nature but he's less than 100%. If you play not to lose, there's a chance you'll lose. Come on, son.

The 4-5-1 has been the bread and butter of the U.S.

With a weak back line a 4-5-1 is the way to play.

Portugal still has the best player in the world and five starters that played in the Champions League and personally, I think you're severely underrating Portugal. Sure they have some injuries but I'd expect them to come out fighting for their lives rather than looking like a defeated team.

The goal is to hold off the initial attack for the 20 minutes.

This! I cant remember the last time we didnt run a 4-5-1, we ran it last game, so does that mean we run for a draw each match? We need defense for this game

Ugh... so far we're not playing like we can and looked too scared of CR7.

 

 

 

This was the worst thing we could do this game, go down a goal early to a silly mistake. Hopefully, Klinnsman has put it in their backbone to bounce back from it. WE need a score before halftime to stay in this to win.

    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field. 
    • At least we don't need to hear overreacting about towels ...
    • Actually there is, try being a Charlotte Hornets fan. I mean the team fuging moved at its peak and hasn't recovered since and that was 25 years ago
