The World Cup

They signed Cucurella to be that guy, so that’ll be interesting.

Good luck tonight! Its 2am KO (on holiday in Mallorca) so will watch highlights tomorrow.

Let’s go!!

That didn’t last long.

We can’t defend Belgium.

Tim Ream is playing like ■■■■■■■ dogshit.

Easily the best Belgium has looked, that miracle survival against Senegal woke them up. We’re lucky to be in it. That baseline cross that killed us against Turkey is still killing us, and they’re overloading the midfield so we can’t get going. One of our wide guys is gonna have to make something happen.

Robinson and Pulisic and Balogun to some extent are all being completely denied the ball. Robinson can’t have it in their end without getting trapped. Pulisic isn’t given any space to run. Balogun had one touch where I guess he could’ve scored but that’s it.

Watching Mex and Eng last night (who both would body bag this US team imo), then watching Belgium tonight, makes me realize why US isnt ready for this level yet :man_shrugging:

Dest, Richards, and Ream are all playing like shit.

Hard to win a round of 16 game when three of your four backs play like shit.

USA looked ready for this level…until tonight.

We have beaten Mexico a few times semi-recently though. We play well in that rivalry.

But that’s my point, they havent hit this level yet until tonight…now they’re in the deep water against a top 10 world team

They’re lucky to only be down one goal. Crazier things have happened.

I expect Poch is going to make some good adjustments. We played a little bit better after the first hydration break.

It’s pretty common in soccer for a team to look completely different from. one half to the next. Hopefully Pochettino pulls the right strings and that happens for us
