I don't know if Gio is a top 2 player for us yet. He probably has the most raw talent of anyone that's ever played for us but not sure I'd rather him on the pitch than McKennie or even Adams or Dest depending on the night.

November 13, 20214 yr Just now, dieucla98 said: Also, CP10 is still our most important player. In case someone had any doubt. 😉 I'd say Tyler Adams. Had some bad giveaways early tonight, but he's a ball hawk out there. So good at winning the ball, transitioning to offense, covering for others, knowing when to push and when to play it safe. If he stays healthy, he's going to end up the best holding mid we've ever fielded. Right now, CP is the best field player in USMNT history, but we do have a lot of talent on the wings and in the attacking midfield. We don't have anyone who can do what Adams does. Acosta on his best night, but you can't rely on that. Maybe Musah with more seasoning. Pero ahora? Solamente Adams, amigo.

November 13, 20214 yr Some more thoughts: How telling is it that, in our most important qualifying match to date, Gergg sits his pets (Arriola, Lletget, Acosta, etc.) and rolls out the lineup we're always clamoring to see? Only lineup quibble was Steffen. His decision-making still seems questionable (uncertain?), particularly when coming off his line, but he stepped up when we needed him. Not a big Yedlin fan, but he was excellent tonight. Got caught napping once and it nearly cost us, but otherwise, Mexico had no joy on its left side. DeAndre handled the ball better than normal. His crossing has always been good and he very nearly found a head or two. Don't think Antonee Robinson played nearly as poorly as @ztejas claims. Defending Mexico's right--where Tecatito roams--is no easy task. He mostly did a good job of shutting things down and getting forward. The thought of Dest trying to mark Corona gives me nightmares. For me, Antonee is the clear choice at LB. Musah and Weah continue to impress. They just ooze class and potential. Hope Gergg sticks with them for the Jamaica match. He has to, right? Even before his goal, McKennie looked his best since August. Took better care of the ball than he did in the previous cycle and was very positive. Also, Myles was unlucky and Zimmerman deserves better than Nashville, but at 28, I guess that's as good as it's gonna get. Finally, missing Myles and McKennie for Jamaica is gonna suck but that just gives a couple of other youngsters the opportunity to step up. I think they will.

I thought he was better in the 2nd half. He helped create* one of their really good chances in the first half and I thought he had a lot of poor individual plays on the ball - especially on offense. Sure he's probably a better defender than Dest but tonight was an off night for him and Dest is so much more dangerous in the opposite third. Granted - I'm not sure anyone knows what position Dest is supposed to play. Antonee may be a better LB but he sure as shit isn't a better player. Dest was playing on the wing for Barca before he got hurt. I guess what I'm saying is - I want that dude on the field and if we have to live with whatever D he gives us I'm sort of okay with it.

Tonight would not have been the time to trot him out at LB. Tecatito is a deft li'l wizard with the ball at his feet. We absolutely had to have someone with more focus and discipline. Digging the new av, btw.
November 13, 20214 yr To echo @Braff Zacklin, I thought Weah was MotM. Something good happened every time he touched the ball and it paid off when CP10 got on the end of one of his passes.
November 13, 20214 yr Just now, Braff Zacklin said: Everyone knows Dest's club, dude. Wasn't pimping Barca I was trying to make the point that for club he wasn't even playing in the back before he got dinged. "For club" = "for Barca" There are plenty of guys in the championship that could find a spot in La Liga. And kind of had to with the av - right? It's the 2.0 from my last one.

November 13, 20214 yr 24 minutes ago, ztejas said: Granted - I'm not sure anyone knows what position Dest is supposed to play. His position is very clearly right back. The only reason he ever plays left back for the US is because we have way more depth on the right. With Scally potentially able to backup both sides and Vines healthy again (and the Cannon/Reynolds/Moore right backs not looking as great at the moment), Dest hopefully won't have to move back to the left for a while.

I don't have as much confidence in Gergg as you. Been trying to defend him, but after he started Arriola for the first two matches of the previous cycle and only scratched him from the third match because of an injury in warmups despite Paul ruining every buildup that came his way, I'm back to questioning how well GGG knows/understands his player pool. Bearing that in mind, I'm going to flinch anytime Beerholder calls up his usual pets for fear he's going to repeat past mistakes. As for Scally, I think most of us are just happy to see him finally called up. Yedlin played well enough tonight to keep him on the bench Tuesday. Myles and Zimmerman deserved the start over Roberts, imo, but Chris will have his chance to shine versus Jamaica.

Sure, he's more of a wingback than a true right back. But the only time he's ever played any position for club or country other than right back or right wing back has been taking advantage of his versatility out of necessity because other options were unavailable, not because right back is not his position.

November 13, 20214 yr That ref and VAR situation was/is crap. If every qualifying game is on TV, then there's no excuse not to have some sort of setup to review plays. The cost should be part of the officiating expenditures - i.e. on CONCACAF. If they can pay for it here and in Mexico, they should be able to pay for it elsewhere. As per the ref, we're now screwed out of 2 starters for Jamaica. It does us no good to win last night, then lose on Tuesday. 3 + 0 = 0 + 3. How we end up with 2 cards for defending a player verbally that just got his face raked, while Mexico's players continued to yell directly in the ref's face is beyond me. And, I'd really love to buy a "Man in the Mirror" shirt, but everyone would just think I was a Michael Jackson fan.
