Looks like 3 at the back - McKenzie on the left, CCV at CB, Scally on the right with TA and McKennie in front.

    Just got back. I get the Agyemang hate, I really do. But watching in person gave me a lot of perspective and how much of an absolute handful he is for central defenders to deal with. Haiti was a very

Scally with a shockingly bad 30 mins to start this one. 

That's better.

Luna needs to be a fixture going forward. Sick talent and he's playing his ass off unlike most of this team right now.

Much better. And CP10 needs to realize he doesn't have to dribble through the entire Canadian back line.

Ref needs to chill the fuck out with the whistles.

You can’t get in without a ticket and them thar rich Mexicans, who have gotten rich by stealing “bl***jobs” have bought up all the tickets. 

What’s REALLY embarrassing is that this game isn’t even on regular Univision, it’s on UniMás!

Now THAT is embarrassing!

Is it me, or does Agyemang just seem a little clumsy? Not a graceful, fluid center forward.

The TUDN game where they put a white celeb on screen then guess if they are Canadian or American is fucking hilarious. 

Holy fuck that Luna pass. Wish Weah had've handled it better. 

Luna belongs here and it’s embarrassing it’s taken this long to get him some run. Dude plays with attitude this team so desperately lacks. 

I can't believe that ref blew it for halftime with McKennie about to take a throw in even with the box.

My kingdom for a decent back 4 Jesus shit.

jfc

Give Marsh the card!

Nice!  There it is!

I think this officiating crew is a little overwhelmed at the speed difference.

LOL bye Jesse.

That was a great play from Arfsten. Better than anything Scally did all half.

We can talk about results but I love how aggressive Poch is with his subs and how he makes everyone in the pool earn playing time. You don't want to play hard? K. Come have a seat. 

Holy shit Pulisic is a fucking monster. That's insane skill.

Should have just jumped on pulisics  back

Such embarrassing shit 

Lol. I've been pointing out that we suck along the back line for years now. Gerg had his coaching issues but Poch has inherited the same dogshit back there just like I said a new coach would. 

CCV isn't a serious player for this team. Scally looked like he didn't even want to be out there in the first half. I don't even know who the fuck #17 is. 

It's ironic because that used to be what helped us level the playing field against more advanced teams. We had good, physical CBs and FBs that played their asses off and kept more gifted players in check. 

I'm not sure what happened to that but it's a glaring issue right now. 

Lol this White dude is a fucking joke.

What a depressing window. Pulisic should have stayed in Milan. 

Low energy effort. Low skill level display. Low soccer IQ on the pitch way too many times.

I wasn’t watching earlier, but I have seen enough in the last 15 minutes to state with confidence…

MAX ARFSTEN SUCKS.

 

Update: BRIAN WHITE SUCKS TOO.

Feels like Poch is weeding out the pool and finding his guys but there's no excuse to be this bad in the process. 

A lot of this - if not most of it - is on the players. Show up and play like you give a shit. Outside of Puli and Luna today I barely saw any of that. 

That said - this was a crappy roster going in and a lot of these guys should not be seeing minutes in comps. White, Arfsten, #17 what's his name, CCV, Tessman - if we are giving guys like that serious minutes in '26 we are fucked. 

Scally was horrendous. Reyna was awful. 

Have some fucking pride in the shirt ffs. 

We'll try again next time. Our 2nd best player missing a window shouldn't be an excuse to play this bad.

Oh yeah. Best part of the game even though I'd give her maybe a C+ on the night. 

I'd give her a D- any night if you know what I'm saying. 

Not really his fault but can we end the CCV experiment? Such a limited player. No height, no speed, and not a great passer. 
 

We have got to sort out the defense and GK situation. I know injuries hurt us this week, but I would have loved to see Richards and McKenzie get a shot. 
 

I’ve had enough of Turner if he’s not playing consistent club ball. Goals weren’t really his fault today, but he’s terrible passing the ball and a big reason we get trapped in the back. 
 

Luna needs to stay but that’s about the only positive I see out these two games.

McKenzie played today dog.

He went 90.

And Richards played against Panama.

Agreed. Remember when a bunch of rag tag MLS dudes went into the World Cup in 2002 and had the second best team in the world on the ropes in the Quarterfinals and Germany had to get bailed out by a terrible ref call to advance... Feels like ages ago and we havent even sniffed that level of success again. The passion is gone.

I feel like someone else called this team soft - and they really are.

 

I know @Zepol87 called me out for pointing some of this at Gregg. And at this point it is fully on Poch and these guys. BUT I will point at Gregg for this. This team was under him for 6 years. And in that time he made this team soft. He didn't challenge anyone. He didn't make people earn their spots, he gave everyone what they had. And it's carrying over to these guys now.

It's changed at times with an infusion of new blood. I mean Balogun did come in and play with a lot more fire than others. We also saw it a little when the team has their interim coaches in 2023. But when they brought back Gregg we got the same old, same old.

The USSF wants a soft team, they got it.

But now this is on Poch. He has to give this team some identity. I know it's only been like ... what 8 games? and only 6 with the A team, but he has to fix this fast. Because 2026 is coming in hot and it's not looking good.

You say soft but that euro shit that you wanted and you only love Poch with his Euro backing.

USMNT's Matt Miazga mocked Mexico player's height

 

I only saw part of the dust up, but frankly I would rather see Gio being pissed about losing than the other stuff we're seeing from this team.

How shitty is our pool that two different head coaches now have been all in on Matt Turner, who has toured around to every club in Europe at this point and can't get playing time at any of them? Supposedly a nice guy and all, but god damn, GK used to be a strength for us.

The lack of a high quality GK for the USMNT has been perplexing for some time for me. I would just assume give Steffan another shot since he's actually playing.
