Wow, great save on the PK.

 

[Steve Tasker]

I really like this Southhampton squad. Theyre a nervy bunch. Take the 2-1 lead,

They had total control for the 15 or so minutes after that but they're hanging on for dear life right now. RvP has to be kicking himself after that PK.

 

[The Gator]

I actually thought to myself that Gerrard looked a little bit heftier than the last few years, like he's bulked up a bit. He went 90 minutes so he's obviously fit, but I barely saw him at all out there.

After a full 90 on Thursday, too. He looked meh today, and shouldn't be putting in those kinds of shifts. Saw one stat where he gave the ball away 24 times...oof

I agree on Allen, too. Very solid player.

love this kid

 

[TLEF316]

Damn. Rvp beast mode for the win

Saints let it slip away again.

Feel terrible for Southampton but kudos to RVP and ManU

 

[Bonzai]

Glory, glory.

 

[Steve Tasker]

That van Persie guy is kinda an ok player.

 

[jonessed]

That van Persie guy is kinda an ok player.

He used to play for Arsenal, but United got him in a double coup of van Persie and Wenger's bronzed cajones.

 

[Bonzai]

That van Persie guy is kinda an ok player.

Guy is a United legend. Maybe the best guy they've ever developed.

 

[Spartans Rule]

Crazy Bayern game today.

They were trailing Stuttgart 1-0 after 30 minutes. At halftime they led 3-1. After 51 minutes they led 6-1, which was the final.

Some impressive goals in there too.

In about 90 minutes we may learn the fate of whether Timmy Chandler will be cap tied to the US. Plenty of speculation that Klinsmann was going to call him in one more time.

Chandler and Gatt are the two most interesting names I am waiting to see whether will be on or not. I am not going to try and predict the roster because I can never tell when Klinsmann will call in a bunch of Mexican based players or a few.

It would not shock me if either Donovan or Dempsey was left off. I would still like to see Dempsey on the roster because he might be able to give 20 decent minutes off the bench.

My first half thoughts:- Diaby looks fantastic, best player on the field for Arsenal thus far.- Still not a lot of chance creation except from Cazorla and Podolski. Still nothing much from the wings. Gibbs has been active and I like it, but he has looked really out of sync with Giroud. Ox has been effectively silent and neglected to get back in defense a few times that I saw; I'd love to see Walcott check in soon.- Jenkinson looks surprisingly competent defensively against Sterling. Sterling looks good and has probably overall had the better of it between the two, but Jenkinson is holding his own and hasn't been a defensive liability so far today.- Mertesacker still sucks and has given the ball away a few times, but that slide in the box was a world-class challenge.- I still don't know how to feel about Giroud. At the very least, he's not a useless pylon like Chamakh. Still, though, he kinda just looks like a new version of Nicklas Bendtner, except he's not as good a dribbler or finisher. Who needs those qualities anyway, right? Hopefully it's just nerves and he'll settle in.

Diaby looked like a different player out there. He was awesome today. I'm glad Ox got a start, but it's back to the bench for a bit, imo. They missed Walcott or Gervinho making runs and tracking back more (like Gervinho anyway). Something about Jenkinson rubs me the wrong way. Maybe it's just that hipster vibe you mentioned.

 

[NewlyRetired]

Boyd had two more goals today in helping Rapid Vienna to a 3-0 win.

 

[jonessed]

I'm surprised to hear the Jenkinson praise. He made at least three passes that I can recall that led to direct counter-attacks. Just terrible passes across the middle of the field that got picked up immediately.

 

[Sebowski]

I'm surprised to hear the Jenkinson praise. He made at least three passes that I can recall that led to direct counter-attacks. Just terrible passes across the middle of the field that got picked up immediately.

He also blundered a clearance and gave a cheap corner.I took Taster's comments about Jenk more as "he's surprisingly not a total disaster".

 

[Steve Tasker]

I'm surprised to hear the Jenkinson praise. He made at least three passes that I can recall that led to direct counter-attacks. Just terrible passes across the middle of the field that got picked up immediately.

His distribution was horrible, but I thought it was maybe his best game ever for Arsenal in terms of actual defending. He's still not good, though.

Sucks not to have Bradley, but that roster shouldn't lose any games IMHO.

I am not happy with the thought that Klinsmann may put out a lineup with Torres, Williams and Beckerman. The midfield is so much weaker with out Bradley.

They crushed Stuttgart today.Stuttgart went up 1-0 in the 25th from a goal by Harnik, then Bayern stormed back with goals in the 32nd, 33rd and 43rd from Müller, Kroos and Gustavo. In the second half Bayern scored in the 47th, 49th and 51st from Mandzukic, Müller and Schweinsteiger. Bayern's subs into the match were all new signings: Pizarro (69), Shaqiri (73) and Martinez (77).

Yeah, it's going to be lower if he's never kicked a ball before. Goalie can probably get most of them without having to guess.

Less than half. A novice won't have the technique to place the kick.

[El Floppo]

KriesDon't think of him as a goal scorer- incorrectly, obviously. Man- the best US player possibly ever to not feature with the Nats.

This is an interesting question. It is hard to define exactly what feature means but I think Kries would be near or at the top of that list.Even though he had 36 caps, over 10 year period, I always though Ralston was a player who seemed like he could have helped the Nats more than he did. As for active players, Brad Davis probably is the best player who never really got a chance with the Nats.

Seems like you got what I meant by "feature"- got his caps, but was never an integral part of the team. Wouldn't have guessed at 36 caps for Kries. And in a way, I remember Ralston at least having a stretch (albeit small) with the Nats where he helped in a big way- great, consistent player. And Davis- so good. I wonder why he gets traded so much? Because he has obvious value, but probably doesn't make marquee money?

 

[El Floppo]

I think Floppo said it best. I don't think there is a worse league in the world than the Championship in England to make Ream look bad. Everything he does well is not welcome and everything he struggles with is going to be exploited.

Brian Sciaretta (@BrianSciaretta)9/1/12 3:42 PMThe Manchester Evening News says #USMNT CB Tim Ream's performance in a 3-1 loss to Hull today was a "nightmare".. Ouch menmedia.co.uk/manchestereven…

Hopefully it will give him a chance to improve his weaknesses. Let me rephrase that... hopefully his team gives him a chance to play and improve his weaknesses.

 

[El Floppo]

Who needs those qualities anyway, right? Hopefully it's just nerves and he'll settle in.

Agree with everything. Was amazed at Diaby's play, after being repeatedly bleh by it previously.And that was two teams that could/should have used a Dempsey.But there's reason for optimism for Liverpool- they're playing well, just need Suarez to score. Oh wait- they have other guys thatcan score, right?And Arsenal seemed to start to gel in the 2nd half; that goal visibly lifted their spirits and their play. They went forward with a lot more confidence afterwards.

40-50 if he's never touched a ball before

Being able to run a marathon isn't going to help you kick the ball on frame 100 times, let alone away from the GK. But yeah, somewhere just north or south of 1/2.Maybe the marathon would help if you did a 2nd 100 PKs. But no as much as having just taken the previous hundred.

I wrote that poorly. Ralston had 36 caps. Kries had 14 caps.Davis has been with SJ/Houston since 2005. That is a pretty long time to be with any one MLS team. I do not know why he moved a couple of times before that though.

Any chance they use Dempsey as an attacking mid to distribute to Boyd and somebody else up top? Or is Dempsey's fitness a question?

 

[NewlyRetired]

Any chance they use Dempsey as an attacking mid to distribute to Boyd and somebody else up top? Or is Dempsey's fitness a question?

I have no idea of course but I have to think that Dempsey comes off the bench in Jamaica. Not only has he not played a game in 3 months, he has not even trained with professionals for a long time. Klinsmann said they will judge him based on his three days in camp in Miami before they head down to Jamaica.If he was fit, I like to think that Dempsey/Jozy/Boyd or Dempsey/Jozy/Gonzo would be the three forwards.I am hopeful Jozy practices well. Klinsmann has not favored him lately and I think he needs to be at his best for the US to pull something off down at The Office.
