boysetsfire Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 I don't know what's more embarrassing: 1 the coaching 2. the playing 3. the uniforms I think we've seen what Altidore, Gooch, Rogers, and Klejstan can do at this level. And that's absolutely nothing. The only bright side I saw in the first half is Aguedelo. He's pretty much on an island out there since Jozy just waddles around the field.

jobaga Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 Jozy Altidore man. What a bum. He doesn't even look like he wants to be on the field 2/3 of the time. he frustrates me to no end....he has the size, speed and skill to be a very good player. But, as I said before, he is extremely lazy (mentally and physically) Link to post Share on other sites
ixcuincle Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 ESPN's soccer theme which they used for the WC and are using for this game is probably the best theme in the history of sports television broadcasting. Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed...It is a shame that Gooch has never recovered from his knee injury. Jozy is lazy, plain and simple Link to post Share on other sites

Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 You should really stop referring to them as Yankees. They're either Yanks or Americans. I fair caused a riot at an ex's family Thanksgiving in the Texas panhandle by joking calling one of her cousins a Yank. Turns out it's too close to "Yankee", which is something of a dirty word still with some Southerners. On a plus note on the game, beside it being the current European and World champions handing out the ass whooping, it's a friendly and matters little. Hail. Link to post Share on other sites

NavyDave Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 Very lackluster effort but many Yankees did not play today Yankees? They play Tonight in Anaheim against the Angels. I thought this was an insomnia prevention err thread about Soccer. It is nice that both ES members who like soccer could get half a dozen ES guest Visas so visitors could post and have us think there are more people who think watching soccer is more fun than videos of a dog chasing its tail.

ixcuincle Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Well, Spain is damn good and won the WC, so I see no reason to rage US was not playing many "Yanks" either like Donovan and Dempsey It's a friendly Would have liked to see US play harder or play more talent. Now go beat Canada. Link to post Share on other sites
renaissance Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 USA vs Canada 8pm tonight on Fox Soccer Channel!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kilmer17 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 While I will root like hell tonight going forward through this Gold Cup (Winner gets the Confed Cup bid in 2013 Brazil), there is a small part of me that thinks a ****ty performance might be the end of Bob Bradley. And that might be much MUCH important to the longterm success of the squad than making the Confed Cup. Link to post Share on other sites
