March 25, 20214 yr Just now, Knoxtnhorn said: Graham Zusi scored once. LoL Not arguing that Lleget isn't outclassed by his teammates. But he's not terrible and has his place in the pool, particularly when our top-tier players need rest/aren't available. And just as I type this ...
March 25, 20214 yr Steffen with some nice saves late to bail out a fading defense. Fuck Lletget's meaningless brace.

Show some anger and not pouting. he and Cannon both acted like petulant bitches when they didn't get a pass. Sargent looked solid. Dest is a stud. add McKennie and Tyler Adams to the mix, plus several other candidates, and these are gonna be fun times.
March 26, 20214 yr Author I know that Brenden Aaronson just got to Europe at the start of the year and only plays for Red Bull Salzburg, but he is an excellent player. He might not be quite as shifty & fast as Pulisic, but he's tougher and has much more defensive bite to go along with his ball skills and movement. He's more of a 10 than Pulisic, who is more of a 7 or 11. They both cause problems for the other team, but Brenden helps solve problems on the defensive end. I really think that the World Cup been in November/December is going to benefit the US, if we qualify, as much as any team that makes it Qatar, because we have so many players who will benefit from one more summer of club training and from 10 to 15 more club matches.
March 26, 20214 yr Author Sergiño's Braking Method On Sergiño's goal, he is flying up the left-ish side and then cuts inside to put the ball on his preferred foot. He takes another touch to line-up the ball and then takes one more step with his RIGHT foot and drags his studs through the grass to slow himself down AND to ensure that his upper body stays out front, over the ball so that he wouldn't sky it. Then he plants with his left foot and scores a beautiful goal with his right foot. I don't think that I've ever noticed a player brake themselves like this before. I doubt that he is the first, but it's a brilliant move that I can't recall seeing. I have lined up the highlight reel to the replays of his goal and you see him drag that right foot through the grass from various angles to slow himself down so that he's in the right position to take a shot on goal. (I wonder who he learned this move from or if he discovered it for himself.)

Maybe he's really feeling his slump but thought he did indeed act like a little bitch.

March 26, 20214 yr Author 4 hours ago, SimonBolivar said: Yeah but do you even count Colombians as South Americans? They might as well be Central Americans! My Buenos Aires flatmate had a Colombiana novia who pulled the goalie when he finally realized that he didn’t have to put up with her manipulative bullshit and tried to initiate a breakup... ...and now is connected to her for the rest of their lives due to the son she had after she “somehow got pregnant”. 🙄 Her.Bogota accent occasionally revealed itself in the kitchen when she was nursing a hangover and wasn’t speaking English or modifying her Spanish to sound neutral. Colombianos are in CONMEBOL, so they are definitely South Americans, but their accents differ from Eastern Argentine & Uruguayan accents. I had a friend from Barranquilla as well, and she and her sister didn’t sound Argie* either when speaking either. *native Argentines don’t use the term “Argie”, but I do. It’s just faster.
March 26, 20214 yr He gets to play with Musah? That's not a bad thing. The more suitors, the better it is for Hoppe.

This is just a guess, but I don't think we have a clue as to where Hoppe is going. Scouts seem to really like him despite a massive lack of minutes and he has been linked to a very wide variety of clubs so far. Then you look back to last summer and Weston appeared to be headed to one of a couple of midlevel EPL clubs and then landed at Juve almost out of nowhere. I still want him in Holland, Ajax, PSV, or Feyenoord. Goal scoring league, minutes to be had, and a focus on technical ability. Edited March 27, 20214 yr by shnsajax
March 27, 20214 yr Author 1 hour ago, shnsajax said: I didn’t realize there was a mini Aaronson. Saw this last night after listening to him being referenced in the USMNT highlight section (when the announcers were calling the game) and then did a deep dive on the Aaronson brothers from watching the equivalent of a podcast or two on YouTube to reading articles to going to the MLSsoccer page to Wiki... It turns out that Brenden agrees with my assessment of his skills and his attention to defense, the younger brother is more of a classic #10, and their little sister, Jaden, is a wiz on the wing (7/11) for her youth team. She may be one to watch for the USWNT in the future, but she's only like 12 to maybe as old as 14. This is why the internet is evil. You think that you are learning stuff, but you go way beyond and never get that time back.
