After conclusive evidence I believe Tyler Adams may be able to teleport around the field and end up in every dribbler’s blind spot. Every kid who wants to play center defensive midfielder should watch this video.

I was watching the games of the past World Cup qualifying window with some family. They have essentially no soccer knowledge but I kept on mentioning how Adams was making really important plays. I encouraged them to start paying attention to his play. They soon we're saying "Man, that Adams guy is everywhere!" and "I can see why you really like Adams!". He truly is fantastic at that Kante role; tireless work protecting the back line and snuffing out counter-attacking threats.
YESsSSS!!!!! The Dance returns!!!
Secret: I go watch the dance at the end before watching the video.
When Adams is playing for the US and we are trying to qualify for the World Cup, are you sure you don't want him as a right-back? lol
No doubt, he should be captain. Especially when against Honduras where he was shown directly arguing with Berhalter on positioning.
How do you feel about there not being any US players at the top 22?
Jake, a suggestion for you. I watched 3 and a half minutes of this video, and then quit. The problem: I cannot find the guy, that I am supposed to be observing. Suggest: Apply that highlighting video technique. a) freeze frame the action. b) Highlight the subject of your narrative. With a red circle, or that halo/aura highlight, or whatever. c) Then continue the video action, and your narrative.
Our Angolo Kante, man cover every blade of grass.
Phenomenal video. My favorite breakdowns were his use of the blindside and the chip passes.
With the desire to have Reyna as an attacking mid-fielder and Weston as one of our starting mid-fielders, what formation do you use and where do these guys play? You have to have Adams on the field but where do you get the best out of this trio? WIth Musah, you have an interesting group of 4 midfielders for a 4-4-2 or a 3-4-3. Greg did not get it right this last cycle in the mid-field and needs to come up with a better solution in the coming window.
These kinds of vids are what make you different than Tact Manager or Yank Report. Had to subscribe.
Top 5? Really? Adams isnt even top 10.
That was an awesome video. Now I understand so much better why people say he's the one indispensable player on our team.
Top 5 is a reach. Let's not get ahead of ourselves π
love the video. Keep going man!
Maybe. Letβs see: Casemiro, Kante, William Carvalho, and Gueye (Gana) are all pretty nasty. He could be close.
Great Video, FIFA! Really enjoyed the breakdown in the different categories. Tyler is an incredible asset to this team. I have not missed a single USMNT game since the early 80s and could not be more excited for the group we have now. Keep up the good work, you and the team.
Edson Alvarez > Tyler Adams, and it ain't even close
Looks good, here because of the links to Arsenal #coyg
Welcome to Manu.
he will come to man utd!
ππππ
i like the blind side insight
Everton linked to this guy now, hopefully it happens
Ive already said Leeds have the better deal, Philips is an ageing injury prone player, and Leeds get a much younger player!
These attributes of his game are easy to miss while watching but make a team so much better !
hes very much like a young phillips ,, hopefully he wont become the recent phillips
The only problem with Adams is that he is poor with the ball. Teams especially in Europe pick up on this. PSG's whole gameplan was to press Tyler Adams.
As a Leeds United supporter I really appreciate this video, it looks like weβve picked up a great player who can replace Kalvin Phillips in our DM double pivot.
To me, this guy and Weston McKinney are the heart and soul of the USMNT. Reyna is a very good player too but always gets hurt which is extremely disappointing. Pulisic is good too but he did not impress me much during the WCQs. Maybe it was him being forced to play with mediocre MLS players or he just isn't used to CONCACAF road games where the field is crappy, who knows, but he did not impress me much at all.
The secret is out now! Give Aaronson another year to adjust to the prem and he will be up there as well
