November 5, 20241 yr Tillman dribbles it about 40 yards through half of Girona’s team and slots it home. Terrible defending but great carry.
November 5, 20241 yr We got some ballaz. Just a matter of keeping them healthy and having a coach who can develop a strategy/system that maximizes their abilities and hides their deficiencies. For the first time in many, many years, I feel like we might have that coach. But is there enough time for it all to come together?
November 5, 20241 yr Pulisic put in a MOTM performance in the Bernabeu amazing day for some Americans.

November 14, 20241 yr I'd take 2-1 and be neutral about it. This team is far too talented (including the coach, finally) to be happy with a draw against anyone in Concacaf other than Mex at Azteca.

Our history in Jamaica isn't great and we're going to be without Balo, Weah, Adams, and Dest. I think it's going to be a pretty ugly game.

I hear ya - I'm hopeful we have a team that can (finally) overcome a few missing players and still take care of business like they should. Much like the true top national teams do.
November 14, 20241 yr Author This is the first game we will get to see how Poch is changing the culture of the USMNT. This type of game was one where GGG would play it safe and generally it would cost us big time. 2 hours ago, dieucla98 said: I'd take 2-1 and be neutral about it. This team is far too talented (including the coach, finally) to be happy with a draw against anyone in Concacaf other than Mex at Azteca. This is the proper take - this team is too damn talented to play it safe. Against most of CONCACAF, it should always be attack attack attack. And we should win the bulk of these games.

I think it's going to be a pretty ugly game. we have plenty of talent to handily win this game and i expect us to do so, 4-1 i expect trusty to start at left center and be a revelation i also expect normal concacrap shenanigans to be in remission - any jamaican player that has any hope of a european payday won't dare commit assault on a multi-million-pound/euro asset in front of a coach connected to the top echelons of european football across the continent
November 14, 20241 yr The Reggae Boyz in general do not resort to the level of shithousery often attributed to many other CONCACAF members. A 4-1 win in Kingston would be shockingly pleasant. I'll be happy with an aggressive, productive attack and a defense that stays organized for a full 90.

November 15, 20241 yr This is a pretty defensive lineup, basically 4 6s/8s. But given who is healthy not a lot of other options.

November 15, 20241 yr I so want to be excited about USMNT again, following them since the last World Cup has been an absolute beating. It’s sapped all the fun out of it. Here’s to tonight being the beginning of the turnaround, but I’m pretty skeptical that will be the case.

So I was kind of curious about this, so I looked it up: US has 20 wins, 3 losses and 10 draws overall. Weirdest thing is that we've only played them in matches since 1988. Of those 33 matches, only 10 are in Jamaica. US record: 3 wins, 1 loss, 6 draws. Not great, but not awful. Those results by year: 1988 D 1994 W 1997 D 1999 D 2001 D 2003 W 2004 D 2012 L 2013 W 2021 D
