7 center backs means going 5 in the back, so 5-3-2 or 5-4-1 with no creativity and no attacking support. USMNT are barely getting out of the group stage and definitely not getting past the first knockout round.
Twellmanโs on it!
3-4-2-1โฆ you might need 7 CBโsโฆ Im in agreement with the 4 midfielders isnโt enough though. ๐ญ
having 7 Center defenders isn't the worst thing, in a tournament this short, defense wins cups
can't rely on the keeper, gotta have enough attack and possession to alleviate pressure. The US team needs to start running harder than everyone else out there, they don't have the skill to dominate but they could win with hustle.
Diego brings grit, creativity & has done everything Poccetino asked of him. Roldon & Miles Robinson offer none of the ways Luna could have helped this team. Luna was screwedโฆ.
Diego Luna should just play for Mexico. He's an asset. US always goes for "pedigree" and "potential", not performance. Why US isn't ever a threat. Ukraine's team, who didn't qualify having to play football in awful circumstances, could beat US easily. They're very good. I actually enjoyed watching US football for first time in a long time, with Luna playing.
All the "potential" and "pedigree" players will fail again, as always. Since US can't bother having young hungry players who're actually performing and truly want to win, represent US, I can go back to watching the truly excellent teams, and not feel guilty. Luna had 2nd most goals and assists for USMNT. Pulisic couldn't score for club or country, always injured. Gio's not proved anything, hasn't even really played with USMNT. Rapport matters. It's like these commentators don't actually watch other country's teams who are on a different level. US wouldn't have made WC except for free pass cuz it's in US. Rather see Luna play for Mexico in future and make a real difference, than wait on US who'll never give him a chance.
Gio overrated. A product of hype who had moments of brilliance a long time ago
Iโm sorry but Roldan should not be there. Waste of a pick if heโs truly only going to be the โlocker room guyโ
Good good team a little unbalanced in lines buuuut many players from big leagues, lucky from a spanish !!!
Luna got robbed. Next time. Wait till โ30 when he and Gozo are out there
I don't understand why is there so much faith in Balogun. He is not good on the national. He's proved it time after time after time. He's bad. Pulisic needs to get his head out of his ass and as a help I have more faith in diego Luna with pulisic. Damn shame. Im scared for this team
Is one of these guys on the panel the guy that puts on a mask and does political street comedy? Sounds EXACTLY like him
Luna over tillman
US have np getting out the group.
Here is the biggest problem. We are relying on Pulisic to be our star go-to scorer. He isn't good enough when the players around him aren't good.
We are going to get embarrassed as usual. Until US SOCCER is dismantled and rebuilt based on player development and not profit things will never change. Simple really.
I have no problem with Reyna over Luna, Luna has hustle and heart, but in a World Cup everyone plays hard and there are fewer gaps to exploit, so hustle gets negated a bit
I'm sure if Aidan Morris was selected Taylor Twellman would be arguing it the other way, dude can take any side of an argument, makes for good TV
Good call POCH ! No Diego Luna and Cristian Roldan call up . CR7 has won every CONCACAF ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ and a GOLD CUP 2021 ๐
Luna is prob going to switch to Mexico after being snubbed by the federation for Olympics and World Cupโฆ watch him wear a Mexico jersey next yearโฆ.
Diego Luna did all those tucking commercials and I see his face every mall I go to promoting ads and usa jersey and doesn't get called up that's crazy!!!!!
Taking Gio Reyna was purely a PR move. Not even pulisic deserves a call up ๐คท๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐คท๐ฝโโ๏ธ
I do not think we know the young guys are ready for that next level, some people are great at the lower tier but cannot handle the pressure and talent at the next level, too risky. Yes Adams is the Midfield anchor, but I know Roldan can lock it down, he is not going to be the guy to win it, but he is the guy to make sure you do not lose it too easily, giving you the chance to win it. The defense is where Poch needs to make sure he gets it right, the offense gives us more options, and different looks is an advantage, but defense, you need to be locked down. If Poch gave Roldan the job to mark Doku I do not think Belgium is having the easy day they had. I fully support the choice of Adams and Roldan in the midfield, and I think Roldan needs to be helping coordinate the defensive marking, the defensive coaches need to work on this for the USMNT, it was not a good showing for the marking around the box, but if they can fix that, wow what a difference, the USMNT looks competitive, but lets be real, those games do not count, it will be something else when it counts. Go USA!
I disagree with SWP. Turkey are obviously favourites to win the group but it's very close between the US, Paraguay and Australia. It will be a tight group and whatever happens i wouldn't expect US to make it past the first knockout round unless they get a very kind draw
No Diego Luna????
It seems Poch is planning to tie all 3 games and hope to advance to round 32 with 3 points
I see a W (Paraguay) D (Aussie) L (Turkey). Score lots and concede less.
Twellman, Gio already hit his ceiling. Thinking there is some vast reserve of future possibility is just being hopeful. If what Twellman is saying is true, Gio should have had more minutes under his last 5 coaches.
This seems like a rough draft.
8:10 yeah… sure it is. He's no longer the player who had that high ceiling. Injuries and lack of consistency attribute to this. Poch just looking for an early exit so he can be fired
Cardoso from athletico ?
Not having Brain White on the team is an absolute disgrace
Nepo baby is In ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ
Plus Reyna peaked at 17. Heโs gotten worse the last 4 years. What has he done this World Cup cycle? Honestly hasnโt done anything.
Those who wonder why US soccer will never be taken seriouslyโฆ Gio Reyna barely plays but his parents blackmail managers to make sure their kid plays on the usmnt. Not because of form but because of favors. Luna, Tessman, and Gozo are better than crybaby Reyna. This is exactly how youth soccer and high school sports in America are.
Brian Schwake should have been in the conversation for keeper.
Diego Kochen should be here Musah should be here Tessman… why is scalley on this roster? Why is Trusty and Arfsten we have not only 7 cbs we have 6 players that can play wingback. You dont need 6… i dont even know why people are bitching about Luna cause hed never see the field anyway. Pulisic should never come out the game… hell Reyna probably wont even see the field even though he should start. I hope by some miracle we get a for mation that has Pulisic and Reyna on the fiel at the same time with Dest Robinson and Westin…
Sorry but Reyna is a bettwr futbol player than Luna… dude can be World Class and Luna will never be that
Maybe he is looking to play 3-back?
Julian Hall is a wild shout by sasha
Iโm picking current Luna over current Reyna any day of the week. Luna already has 4 goals in 9 matches. Reyna has 1 goal in 19 matches.
I understand that midfielders arenโt the primary goal scorer for a Football club, but those numbers tell me that Luna has more hustle than Reyna does right now.
Itโs puli balo weah
Gio can break a low block on tough teams. Luna CAN SCORE ON GUTALLAMA. Pick one pick one pick one in a World Cup
These guys are like spark notes
Blue shirt is dumb
