That’s getting fairly close to an A team. The starters, at least. Who’s missing? Adams, Dest. Pepi, probably.

Sands has reportedly been playing well.

My sister knows his mom (maybe from college), so I’m pulling for him to be good enough to play in this window.

Reyna, Scally, LDLT, Musah

I wish we could list off some CBs that were missing, talk about slim pickings after Richards, who has been playing really well for Palace.

I am a big fan of his, but does Reyna belong on that list? The guy is barely getting minutes. It sounds like he has an attitude problem.

I was just listing guys that could be on the roster next year. 

Who knows what's going on with Gio. Apparently he's injured again.

No.

Gio won’t be on the team next year. 

He can’t stay healthy because he doesn’t put in whatever time stretching and strengthening is needed to be fully fit, so he can’t run full speed. But occasionally he gets close to top speed and then injures himself again. 
 

He isn’t worth tithe spot.

ESPN journalist Jeff Carlisle asked about Atalanta midfielder Yunus Musah and Borussia Monchengladbach defender Joe Scally missing out on the squad during today’s press conference.

Mauricio Pochettino wasn’t too pleased with the question.

“Next time, you provide your list or your roster and after that, we can debate,” Pochettino answered.

“I’m not going to talk because we never give explanations about players that are not with us.”

“When you’re asking me about players that are not in the squad, that’s because in your mind, you believe that they have the right to be here.”

“We need to respect the players in the 26 [amount of players called in]. If not, we are going to start asking social media about why not one player or another and decide.”

“I don’t know, maybe you can ask me why [Lionel] Messi is not in the roster. Those types of players, [Diego] Maradona or Pele. But when you’re talking about different names, you need to respect players that are here.”

Absences: Unavailable due to injuries are the PSV duo Sergiño Dest and Ricardo Pepi and Atletico Madrid midfielder Johnny Cardoso. Jack McGlynn underwent foot surgery after being injured last weekend with the Houston Dynamo. Tyler Adams will not be with the team because his wife is expecting any day.

US u20s beat France 3-0. 

I watched it.  They looked pretty good.  Grain of salt and all because any player in the world that's really good probably wouldn't have been released.

i nearly fell out of my chair when i scrolled into this post just now.

 

Are those plugs or does he have a rug?

I've not followed his hair journey.

Rug literally glued to his scalp.  There's a video of that actual application.  He leaned into it.

Wow!

He looks a little AI.

Good for him. Tony Romo was/is a trendsetter!

Just clicked on a IG link a friend sent me and there was something spicy before it switched to something about Spanish grammar conjugations. 

I flipped up to see that Landon’s hair journey was the video before the grammar, but before Landon…


What kind of perv do these IG algorithms think I am.

I don't give a shit. 

In case you were wondering why there isn't any discussion. 

I know either @Ted Lange or @Knoxtnhorn likes the developmental stuff more than I do.

You are 💩ing on “Project 2034”!

These guys look like they have skill and know what they are doing.

Do any of them play defense? 

We cannot run Tim Ream's corpse out there next year.

The gave up zero goals vs France 🇫🇷 in group play and vs Italy 🇮🇹 in a knockout match. So they apparently have first teamers who can play D.

I hadn’t been watching the matches, keep forgetting they are on.   Looking at FotMob lineups, there are a few names I recognize, several MLS rotation guys and Cole Campbell who’s on Dortmund.   Cole keeps making Dortmund bench but hasn’t gotten many minutes.   Final 4 looks fun.  USA plays Morocco next 

Well this sucks.   Sounding like no Pulisic or ARob tomorrow night. 
 

 

Pulisic and Jedi we can work around but no Zendejas is a blow. 

Some musings on tonight’s match.   Ecuador defense is insane.   18 WCQ matches, 5 goals allowed.  
 

image.thumb.png.5651ee1d003adbaea40319f1c5bb2aa5.png


Also their FFIA ranking is getting close to moving them to a Pot 2 team, so they are likely gonna be playing to win.   It isn’t just some friendly to go thru the motions.   Assuming Pulisic isn’t playing, getting a single goal here would probably be surprising.   

Tonight’s USMNT Starting XI vs. Ecuador: 

24-Matt Freese,

3-Chris Richards,

4-Tanner Tessmann,

8-Weston McKennie,

12-Miles Robinson,

13-Tim Ream (Capt.),

17-Malik Tillman,

18-Max Arfsten,

20-Folarin Balogun,

21-Tim Weah,

23-Aidan Morris

 

It’s about time that Asian[sic] Morris starts over Christian Pulisic!

 

Weah playing RWB and Weston up top with Flo and Tillman.   Uh, ok. 

According to the broadcast interview with Weah.   Also, TNT coverage is light years ahead of shitty fox sports 

Stadium looks to be about 70% full. 

Lower level looks more respectable than the upper level.

Nearly gave up a scoring opportunity off the kickoff. 

We appear to be in full Scrambling To Put Out Fires mode.

I'm enjoying that I can stream these games through the HBO app also instead of dealing with the Fox app's bullshit 

Balogun looking active so far. I like whatever Poch is doing with him.

I’m watching in Spanish and I’m not fluent but I can pick out “treinta y ocho anos Ream”

That guy was faster than Richards.

We have been playing pretty well, but we’re down 0-1. 

Shit, Richards almost equalizes but the Ecuador keeper makes a great reflex save 

Arfsten with the header dummy on their keeper’s clearance. 

Furk!

I thought that Richards had hit the post, didn’t realize that their keeper had made a great save. 

Considering who we are missing, we are playing much better than expected.   The goalkeeping is the difference in the score line so far.

I think that’s a little harsh to Freese but ECU goalie has been great so far.
