Re: World Soccer XXX: We Have Men Too!
The MLS Playoffs need to hurry up and start because anything involving US Soccer is unreadable at this point. Now I understand what Mexico was going through 2002 to 2010. JFC.U-A-A!!!Go!Go!GreenandGold!

It’s a drop in the bucket at this point, r/mls is unreadable at this point.
For that article, in true Deadspin fashion, a Canadian commenter summed it up nicely:
But c’mon, this is Canada.
I’m Canadian (and have mostly come down from last night’s high, thank you) but since I root for an MLS team and like to talk about soccer online I am basically forcibly immersed in the Discourse surrounding the USMNT’s increasingly frequent embarassing defeats to non-Mexico teams in CONCACAF, so listen to me now and believe me later on when I say that the mindset leading anyone to write this sentence is the entire reason this keeps happening to you, because you consistently overrate your talent, underestimate your regional opponents, and undervalue regional tournaments, so that you can frame losing games like this entirely as a result of your own team’s and federation’s failings rather than, say, other teams being better than you expect.
A team with Christian Pulisic,
against a team with Alphonso Davies,
Weston McKennie,
Mark-Anthony Kaye or Sam Piette or Scott Arfield,
Josh Sargent,
Jonathan David,
and Jordan Morris
and Lucas Cavallini or Junior Hoilett or even ****ing Cyle Larin,
should have no problem dispatching the **** Canadians, let alone getting comprehensively beaten by a 2–0 scoreline that if anything flatters the USMNT.
should really have a more thorough understanding of their opposition and/or a more realistic view of themselves, or else no process changes or management changes will have any effect on whether they get outplayed by a team that actually takes the competition they’re in and the opponents they face seriously.U-A-A!!!Go!Go!GreenandGold!

Re: World Soccer XXX: We Have Men Too!
The talent may not be as good as we think but I can't disagree with an argument that the US should not be in this situation and that the Federation is to blame for it.
As it stands....i won't be shocked at missing 2022."If you leave ignorance and stupidity alone, ignorance and stupidity will think it's ok."

People are still PO’d about 2018 and it’s clouding their judgement. Everyone wants to blow things up and have massive changes, disregarding the fact there’s a new President, GM, and Coach among other changes, because things aren’t improving RIGHT NOW!!!!!
Look, they’re not as good as they used to be and not as good as they (hopefully) will be. Games like these will happen, and yeah they suck, but it doesn’t mean the end is nigh and they won’t qualify for the World Cup.
If they lose to Canada at home in a month then yeah there’s probably reason to be concerned.U-A-A!!!Go!Go!GreenandGold!

Re: World Soccer XXX: We Have Men Too!
I think the bigger thing right now is we aren't seeing improvement from a game to game basis and that rhe style he wants to play isn't suited for the guys we have.
It's all well and good to say we want to generate from the back like City does...but we don't have the players to do that.
Playing that style right now isn't good for us and won't help the guys playing get better so it makes no sense to play it."If you leave ignorance and stupidity alone, ignorance and stupidity will think it's ok."

Re: World Soccer XXX: We Have Men Too!
I do think one point to make that a lot people gloss over is that MLS is doing something else...its giving more Non-americans in CONCACAF a place to improve their game. Costa Rica, Honduras, and Canada have a "quality" league to have players continue their development. There is little doubt that USA needs to be better, but I do think we have to accept that MLS is helping make CONCACAF better too.Michigan Tech Legend, Founder of Mitch's Misfits, Co-Founder of Tech Hockey Guide, and Creator/Host of the Chasing MacNaughton Podcast covering MTU Hockey and the WCHA.
