American soccer fans are quite uninformed and unintelligent when it comes to soccer. I'm a casual fan yet I can even understand the tactical changes a coach may make.

Gio Reyna is an offensive and possession oriented player who has probably 3 or 4 more world cups in him. The U.S. did not give up a single goal in three group matches. They got up against Wales and Iran and subbed defensive players in and shifted to a 5 man back line. Against England Reyna was subbed in to get more attack and possession since it was a draw.

Given the nature of Holland and their desire to attack, their midfield and back line will be open to counters with the speed of the Americans. Fret not, this is going to be Gio's game guys. Fret not.

If the U.S. had scored there no one would've complained. I was thinking 3 v. 2 was good enough reason to give it a go. Just poor execution.

I'm just glad FIFA got the message that in order to win American viewers over, you can't reward flopping as much.

Huh. I'm talking about everything Moore does. Give aways, gets himself out of position. Can't play a ball into attacking space to save his life. Dude is garrrrbage

I agree with everything you said but Joe Scally is the better option if the goal is to park the bus. Moore and Yedlin are the same player outside of Moore being slower.

Dempsey said it best, Moore spent more time apologizing for his play than actually contributing something meaningful.

You are quite uninformed and unintelligent period

I disagree with pretty much everything you post because it is totally ridiculous and dumb

They have to shoot the fuging ball and hope for rebounds. Time after time they're give us space at the top of the box and we push right in and let them close down space and try to pass through their defenders. Robinson had an easy goal from about 8 yards away but the last pass to him was atrocious

      Donovan seems like highest risk to me. Lloyd and May have already established relationships with all these kids. There’s probably guys hitting the portal that they recruited from HS. And then there’s the possibility of transferring their own guys from their current teams. They’ve also been recruiting the HS kids for like the next 5 years already. Look at the Iowa coach who hit the ground running by transferring all his guys from his D2 program. Or going across sports to Cignetti transferring all his JMU guys year one then building off that to a national title year 2. Donovan is starting from square one having been in the NBA so long and he’s already 60. So you’re potentially punting year 1 for a guy you are just hoping to be a 10 year hire while you figure out how to actually develop your next home grown 20yr guy. That’s 1/10th of the time you have him, more or less at best. The hope would be that he would find some high level assistants who have been working the college recruiting trails already, but then are you giving up his ideal staff just to get a foothold in recruiting and transfers. Think Belichick year one was bad? Imagine how much worse it would be without Steve Belichicks transfer portal pulls. Hoping Mays or Lloyd are all they’re cracked up to be.

      I don't care if you block me. I'm honestly tired of seeing you bash the heels and Hornets and pretend to be a fan. Get a life.  And like I said before.. Hang the banners.  Been 11 years since Duke even made it to a championship
