WOWEE
that was an awesome game by USA
total domination
the formation was called a 4-3-3
and called 4-3-2-1

i downloaded it last night, and will re-watch and post what i re-see

dolo cameron boca johnson
jones edu bradley
donovan torres
boyd

our midfielders jones, edy, bradley were perfect compliments to each other
they were never out of position
always supported each other
and controlled the game

Fabian Johnson looked Great as the left FB
whenever he attacked, he moved well, had good dribbles, and looked very dangerous

Boyd, was refreshing to see, someone up top running and chasing and pressuring
he looks very fit and very athletic
he might not b ready yet, but i like him more than altidore

cameron is a big goon
we canNOT leave him in 1v1 situations vs forwards
if im the opponent and i see him on the field, i tell everyone to attack him every time

hard to grade the substitutes

more after i rewatch it later this week

These jerseys are completely terrible. Hopefully they disappear like some trick where's waldo.

penalty....

J-Mezzy · Post #348 » by **J-Mezzy** » Thu May 31, 2012 12:28 am

Was that PK legit? I didn't see it. I turned it on as Neymar took the PK

Boognish · Post #349 » by **Boognish** » Thu May 31, 2012 1:00 am

PK was crap, Onyewu pulled his arm in, ball hit his chicken wing.

Bradley has been dropping dimes, floating balls over the top with his left/right

we suck at this game. this is terrible watching USA embarass themselves. they look easily rattled. no composure. erratic passing.

Brazil got a soft pk and US wet the bed on a corner. Not getting embarrassed.

Brazil is swarming when they're off the ball, making it hard for US to play out of the back - but it hasn't been all bad tho. Torres, Jones, Gomez Bradley have looked good. Onyewu is still crap, but go figure

So many close opportunities...

Gooch is the master of screwing up the offsides trap, should be his last year ever
Think Boyd's gonna be a good poacher for this team, the timing he has on his runs is pretty impressive for his age. He kind of sucks with the ball on his feet though, pretty slow footed so he eats the ball sometimes

Score doesn't really show how close this game was.

This, the score looks embarrassing but the play wasnt.

Team USA played great and applied pressure on Brazil, ON BRAZIL! Wish we would've capitalized on the missed shots.

Onyewu and Boca at CB is hurting this team. We need change out there.

jerrod · Post #357 » by **jerrod** » Thu May 31, 2012 2:14 pm

yeah, a decent game that looks much worse based on the score. if we could have grabbed 1 or 2 out of that flurry midway through the 2nd half it would feel entirely different.

man, onyewu was awful
bradley was pretty great
i thought landon had a bad night, gave the ball away a lot
marcelo is a ridiculous whiner, but an amazing player

Gomez + Wondolousy was even worse than I could imagine
