Tonight's XI - looks like a 5-4-1?

Far from inspiring.

Looks like Roldan starting at the false RB tonight?   I wish Berhalter would give this idea a rest :(

Strange group but I kind of expected something odd for this game as he probably wants to give a couple of looks to some out liers for the final roster decision.

I still think Gonzo at his age is wasting minutes that could be going to Long or Zimmerman or CCV.

1. I have this sick dream that Miazga becomes the American John Terry.

2. I like the way Mihailovic plays; hoping his can earn a regular spot.

3. Don't dislike Trapp, but feel he has reached his ceiling, and that's not good enough.

4. If Yueill is good enough for Lima, he's good enough for me.

Can you expand on this?  I don't understand what you mean.  Are you referring to Nick Lima?

 

[NewlyRetired]

here are the subs.  No Boyd, but no Jozy or Bradley either so I can't really make any reads here.

I guess one of two things regarding Boyd.  Boyd either really impressed or did the exact opposite. 

======

Substitutes: 12-Sean Johnson, 22-Tyler Miller, 2-Nick Lima, 11-Joe Gyau, 16-Daniel Lovitz, 17-Cameron Carter-Vickers, 23-Duane Holmes, 24-Jonathan Amon, 25-Walker Zimmerman

I didn't recognize the name so I looked him up.  He plays with Lima for San Jose, and Lima said a lot of nice things about his game.  FWIW, I like Lima's game too and hopes he takes over for Yedlin sooner rather than later.

 

[Charlie Steiner]

 16-Daniel Lovitz

Why, God, why?

Think it's more of a 3-5-2 with Arriola and Robinson playing as deeper wings.

Agree on Lima, a very nice surprise in a position of need.

 

[NewlyRetired]

Trapp is not typically a winger.  He only plays centrally.

If it is a 3-5-2, maybe Arriola and Robinson as the flank players?

 

[TripItUp]

We'll see if Sargent is who I suspect he is...overrated.

 

[NewlyRetired]

There is only one natural striker in the starting line up in Sargent.

 

[TripItUp]

Is there any reason to Give Gonzo run over CCV?

 

[NewlyRetired]

Is there any reason to Give Gonzo run over CCV?

imo, no.  I mentioned earlier he is taking minutes from Long or CCV or Zimmerman.

 

[Ted Lange as your Bartender]

I hate playing Jamaica because I just cannot root against Andre Blake

 

[El Floppo]

Just got home turned on the game.

RED

my eyes!

 

[El Floppo]

Fun to see national team players not even look to see who's making runs before hitting their cross 

 

[El Floppo]

Weah would've scored that

 

[El Floppo]

Hutheell is yuell.

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

Hutheell is yuell.

Has pretty much turned the Quakes season around along with playing Salinas as a winger. 

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

I’d take Gloster over Robinson right now. 

 

[Christo]

My eyes! WTF green-lighted those uniforms?

I totally remember Alec Mihailovic. 

 

[TripItUp]

Our U20 team vs. this lineup.

what would be the final score?

 

[JaxBill]

I kind of like the red jerseys but the shorts need more contrast

A hundred weahs to zip

If they were white, it would be res, white and blue at least.

But seriously... Less consistent, but more upside creativity form the yutes than what this group has shown so far. Nips not included.

 

[Christo]

Of course it's the ensuing free kick, you dumb SOB.

 

[NewlyRetired]

But seriously... Less consistent, but more upside creativity form the yutes than what this group has shown so far. Nips not included.

also worth noting that this is nothing but experimental tonight with many players never having played together in a new formation.  I think this would look different a month from now if this team stayed together.

I'm just looking at individuals in that comment. Nobody has tried #### yet. At least the yutes try ####.

 

[BassNBrew]

Sargent looks like that fat kid you put in right field.

I think Roldan has tried a couple one-touch passes in behind. But he hasn’t come close to pulling one off. 

 

[TripItUp]

tell me you'd rather have Sargent than Weah.

 

[El Floppo]

The smart far kid. Who knows stats and when to go where. 

 

[BassNBrew]

Is the ref American?

 

[TripItUp]

Agree with this.

 

[BassNBrew]

Excluding the press right?

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

That’s why you dive. 

 

[El Floppo]

Excluding the press right?

He knows where to go, but He's fat...give him a break. 

 

[NewlyRetired]

Watching Djordie and Roldan just emphasizes Pomykal is going to be an upgrade both offensively and defensively.

 

[El Floppo]

Ah... Thanks. Didnt see it.

Women's world cup can't get here soon enough. 

Or the u quarterinal.

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

Oh, Antonee. Head across goal. 

 

[Plorfu]

21 for Jamaica, Kevon Lambert, plays for the Phoenix Rising. Speaking of, @FBG Moderator - can you add #1 Fan of Phoenix Rising Soccer under my screen name?

 

[NewlyRetired]

Robinson better hope he was not one of the guys who was fighting for a spot because he has been poor all half.

 

[TripItUp]

I'm already moving on to subs...who do we want to see 2nd half?

Can I have these 46 minutes of my life back?

Iirc that's the Drogba team. No idea if he's still involved.
