Ah yes ..the soccer ref ripping anyone who disagrees as per usual.
I’m not ripping anyone who disagrees, I’m the ripping the person who didn’t say a word all tournament and then suddenly comes in at the end and trots out their tired “they should’ve counter attacked” schtick despite a mountain of evidence that it doesn’t work.U-A-A!!!Go!Go!GreenandGold!

Maybe it's me...but I saw all our goals as counter attacking not breaking down and possession so your mountain of evidence seems to be lacking...and I didn't realize I had to be here the whole tourney in order to be allowed to have an opinion.
Pulisic’s goal was off an 11 pass sequence where the ball largely started from the GK Matt Turner.
Haji Wright’s goal was off of a recycle pass from a botched corner kick.
Weah’s goal is the closest to a “counter attack” and that still involved the midfield passing the ball up field.
Honestly, you’re just trolling at this point (and I’m falling for it).U-A-A!!!Go!Go!GreenandGold!

Ok...maybe not full counter attacking which I don't think needs to be just breakaways...but at least pressing...not just possession and trying to breakdown defenders in the box. Maybe I just see the game different from you and that's ok. And I'm not trolling...sorry you see disagreement as that. And you can easily not "fall for it"U-A-A!!!Go!Go!GreenandGold!

Originally posted by Jimjamesak View PostEven by loosening up your definition (pressing is not counter attacking), that’s still not what lead to the goals.

You’re not “seeing things differently”, you’re seeing things wrong and trying to shape them to prove your point.
And you still haven't presented a mountain of evidence of anything...but you do you."If you leave ignorance and stupidity alone, ignorance and stupidity will think it's ok."

And it still would have ended with the same result. I'd rather play a style that gives us a better chance to win by scoring than one that hopes you can stop team from doing it when it always seems inevitable with our defense.
We had our chances and couldn't convert, and then we had 3 massive collapses on defense that they didn't Rooney.
This particular game wasn't on the coach.

Not doing any of that ..but again...you do you. If I'm wrong fine...but you're evidence is lacking. Again...maybe I'm not fully getting all of counter attacking and I mean something else and that's on me. But the possession and trying to break down teams doesn't work IMO because we don't have the players for it.U-A-A!!!Go!Go!GreenandGold!

One thing I'd say is on the coach is starting Ferreira...he was God awful.
If you want to go with the “he should’ve brought X” then there are counters to that argument as well.
Or are you just trying to find a stick to bash Berhalter with?U-A-A!!!Go!Go!GreenandGold!
