need to continue moving the ball quickly into the final third. We kinda suck at patient build up. Only chances we've had have been those killer balls. Nothing coming from passing it around.

Definitely. Movement has been great with Nips, Aaronson all over the field and Musah and Swag also switching it up. When the ball moves quicker, there's always one of those guys in good spots. Their final ball needs to be better and more positive when they get it, and I'd still like to see them take a defender on to open a shot or make another defender have to slide and cover.

The low block has eliminated a lot of what Pepi wants to do in the middle. Need to figure a way to get him more involved.

 
Missed the first 30 mins.  Sounds like some ####housery. 

Usa looks well in control.  That doesn't mean I don't get all jumpy&quo whenever JAM has the ball over the midfield stripe.

 
Not to sidetrack bit I'm seeing what I've seen the last 5 or so years in club ball... no one will pull the trigger.

I think we've spent so much time developing skill/play from the back that actual shooting has taken a back seat.  I can't tell you how many times I've had to remind kids if the window is open, rip it. It's like they want to dribble it into the goal.

Granted, Jamaica is basically playing a 4-5-1 so the windows are tight but I'm not sure we even have a threat to score from 25-30 on the field

Great run by Musah.  What a freaking header by Pepi.  The ball was behind him and his momentum was taking him away from it, but he still managed to reach back and get enough power on it.

ETA: Another great run by Musah as I type this.

 
Aaronson seems to be fading. May be time for some fresh legs (especially since I'd like him to start all 3)

ETA: maybe not

Aaronsons final ball/touch still not quite right...too bad, because he's been in such great spots tonight that could be doing real ..

WRONG!

 
Let the bidding begin. Kid is going somewhere  BIG this winter.  Gonna fund the Dallas academy for a generation
