Jozy was an idiot to get in the face of the guy after the foul. Our CBs have been horrible. I can't figure out which one is going to get subbed out. Ream was an idiot as well. I'm so angry right now.

Awful. First goal allowed defense was sleeping. Nothing up front at all. Altidore will continue to play poorly, you can tell on his face hes not in to the game. Pretty bad showing so far. Can't think of any positives other than a few blasts from Dempsey.

Ream has to go, don't care if Sacha's in the backline to be honest.

Bocanegra always looks better at CB than LB, hopefully they move him over and bring in Lichaj. Just get Ream out of there please.

Meanwhile George John is hanging out with the Greek national team...

I'm pretty sure John picked up a knock when he was with them and he didn't train.

I really don't rate Altidore highly. Any up and coming strikers in the US who could play in tha national 11 ?

None of these young guys are ready for the national team:
Bobby Wood (1860 Munich)
Joe Gyau (Hoffenheim)
Josh Gatt (Molde)
Gustavo Adrian Ruelas (Santos Laguna)
Conor Doyle (Derby County)
Omar Salgado (Vancouver)
Terrence Boyd (Hertha Berlin)
Jerome Kiesewetter (Hertha Berlin)

Of those who are:
Buddle
Gomez
Agudelo
Altidore
Wondolowski
Mwanga (not a US citizen yet)
Davies
Bunbury
Starikov

...sadly Altidore/Agudelo/Wondo are probably our three best right now.

Oh and of course there is Clint Dempsey

I dont think anything will change until we get rid of Bradley. We just look disgustingly complacent because only 3 or 4 of the starting spots arent guaranteed. There's just no urgency when you're under no threat to lose your place.

One problem I see with the USA NT is that you guys always seem to bet on aerial balls and long passes, almost reminiscent of England. You guys need to learn to play it closer to the ground.

They showed the repeat. That was such a dive.

edit: i'm not saying it wasnt a dive btw. but there's been so many uncalled dives.

I agree. I'm tired of our longball barrages.

I actually agree with this despite being Mexican. It would like if an Argentine ref whistled a Brazil match.

Bedoya was pathetic for trying but it is sad the ref hasn't caught the Panama players diving yet. They keep getting sniped.

Goodson's goal makes up for his own goal. He barely touched it and hit it in for Panama.

We know.
We're trying to do this at the youth levels.

It's a characteristic now, like having a terrible defense.
