Dest did not do well against Netherlands.
Cant we just tell Berhalter to take a hike? The team is much better without him.
Ggg will bring it down!!!!!
Mckinne is a bench player at best.
Scally could be used as a cb on the right or left in a back 3.
I had a room-mate in San Diego in the early 2000s who played on Herc's indoor(?) team there. The coach's selection of players didn't include a bunch of guys who my room-mate thought were better than the eventual squad, and he described the coach as a moron on general. Those two groups ended up scrimmaging a couple of times and the starters+ were utterly destroyed both times by the cast-offs.
Gregg reminds me of that coach. All 3 of those players are probably gone. GB has the unerring ability to look at any two players across multiple comparisons, to pick the worse of the two, then plug that worse player into the worst possible tactical scenario for him to play in.
Re: who comes off for Reyna? Probably McKennie at least some of the time. McKennie has a tendency to get lazy and disappear.
I think Weah should come out and you play Reyna and Musah with M/A and that makes Weah even more dangerous as a substitute
Joe Scally is only one day too old for the u-20's
If no one picks up Gio Reyna Bring him to MLS!
Pretty sure everyones stock went up lol
Exactly! Tempo…when to go when to slow..Gio
Adams or Mckinnie….Adams does not control a game…Mckinnie needs to lose a couple of Kilos!
Musa scally and pepi are not better than their counter part but those are quality subs that should be getting consistent minutes a privilege to have as options
I think i might bench Mckennie and start adams gio musah.
We need to spend all the money on technology preventing all the Reyna injuries
Who does gio play over?
Drop the USMNTLGBQT2. When discussing this sport, National Team or USA will do just fine.
It’s a rough thing to say but for our team to truly make noise and win highly competive games both at Copa America and the WC we need to start gio Weston at the 8s and musah as a 6. Although Tyler did a very good job at the World Cup and as an extremely defensive CDM at leeds, he is not going to be a player that propels us past the round of 16 or round of 8. Musahs ability to seemlessly initiate counters, control the tempo from the back and show the work ethic to recover defnesively and get stuck in just makes him a more complete option. The front five of balo, CP, weah, Weston and gio should be written down in pen.
Family drama aside, Reyna is a must for our team moving forward, however I really did like him in that CAM type position that he played against mexico and canada
It's safe to say everyone's stock went up, except maybe Aaronson or Zimmerman. Those two stocks didn't go down, just not up. Everyone else more or less cemented their role in the starting line up.
They really brought back the coach that didn’t play this guy…. You got to be kidding
Do we trust that GGG will even be willing to play Gio at midfield where he belongs? To this point he has always played him on the wing.
Why is everyone praising Scally??? Sure he held his own against Alphonso Davies for less than 20 minutes, but after that, he was truly abysmal! Every attack came down Canada’s right wing; he was burned by speed a few times, didn’t go up for any headers, and overall, I have no idea how he’s on a Bundesliga side!!!
Against strong attacking teams, play Adams, bench McKennie. Against defensive teams, play McKennie, bench Adams.
Biggest thing is that he continues to start in the midfield GGG kept jamming him on the Wings for 0 reason
Weah’s ability to transition quickly from defense to offense
Gio is the KDB of this team. Period
Put Gio in, Move Tyler Adams to Center Back, and take Zimmerman out.
NYCFC leading the charge with Gio and Scally.
You can also just play with 4 in the middle if you really need MMA in the middle. Play like Milan in mid 2000s, very compact, especially with backs that get forward well. Play with MMA, 3 ball winners, and Reyna in front of them with a lot of freedom.
Greg knows that America does not want him. He will bench these guys just because. Its disgusting
The Dest and Scally debate is healthy. Great to have two options with different skill sets. Glad Scally got his chance. He deserves it.
