We are going to be the student in this master class, right?
If we can avoid an L against Brazil, it will be an all-time turnaround.
I wouldn’t be so disturbed if we didn’t seem so lackadaisical in the 2nd half. We also can’t forget that Colombia is a legitimately good team. Put their club teams next to our club teams, do a blind comparison, and someone would would probably say they are the better team. Lord knows they are better coached.
FIFY
I think that dismantling by Colombia has heated up Gregggg’s seat. Mediocre showing against Brazil and not making it out of group in Copa, he gone. An exit in the quarters, still think he might be gone.
So we are, once again, not good?
Ya but the issue (and why he was rehired) was that we can’t afford (or are forced not to due to wnt issues) a good hire.
Edit: or they pay an appropriate amount to a good mens coach and just give the womens coach a huge raise. But that seems too obvious (and a bad biz decision).

Worth a listen
Listening to my podcasts this morning… what would you prefer for today’s game?
a) Bunker down, limit ourselves to a few opportunities in the counter, and we tie 0-0. Or…
b) We play to win, but lose 3-1, or 4-2.
C) lose 5-0 and the coach is fired
PULISIC 
I’ve missed doing that 
Much better effort. I think that’s the hardest I’ve ever seen Pulisic play, @cameronj.
Gio Reyna too. I think that’s the most defense he’s ever played in his life 
Hahaha
Yeah I definitely don’t remember 70 yard sprints back to help out the defenders
Being a USMNT fan has the same rollercoaster feel as being an OSU fan. This is the life I’ve chosen.
So it looks like money for the 2026 World Cup is starting to flow. I came across this article for KC:
Thoughts?
Win is a win? CP looked great. Chris Richards… what is wrong with that guy. He and Turner has some brutal giveaways. Jedi was solid, absolute rocket down the sideline. I’ve been on the McKennie is way too fat for a pro athlete train long before it was trendy, and it’s still true. The guy looks slow and disinterested. Yunus is not going to be the elite player I thought he might be. Weah is NAAASTY. Really impressed with the defensive effort Gio has put out the last two games, but why are we playing him so deep? Dude is a CAM. I’m still getting used to Joey Clamps at RB, didn’t see my love for his abilities coming. Flo had some fun, saucy moments. Pepi felt non-existant despite having a 1.5+ XG. Uruguay may stomp us, but I’m cautiously optimistic becuase GREGGGG showed some tactical flexibility against Brazil.
Is anyone watching this?
This was guaranteed to be a chippy one. Going to get wild the second 45.
Just wondering how many times Balogun has to be held before this ref starts handing yellow cards out like candy. Finally gave one, but he’s a lot quicker to pull out the cards on us.
