June 28, 20196 yr I wish I did not agree with y'all but I do. If we can finish our early chances he coaching should not affect the game but we have not been finishing on our opportunities to score. Can we also get the team on Yancy's hydration plan, is that too much to ask for when we are playing at the highest level.

June 28, 20196 yr 2 hours ago, ATLLonghorn said: Ellis' shitty coaching choices have one positive and some negatives. While it was insanely dumb the way she used Lindsey Horan against Spain, Horan should be well rested and ready to go and having arguably the best player in the game fully rested and fit for a Quarterfinal is a big advantage. On the flip side how much will some of the older players (Rapinoe, Sauerbrunn, Heath) have in the tank for this game? Can she risk not starting Rapinoe to use her as a second half sub to keep her fresh? How much of a leash does Morgan have as she's been ineffective since playing Thailand? Jill Ellis is the big question mark. The US can out-talent most teams including France, but if this game is nip and tuck is she going to make the right decisions? It's a huge variable. She should be very well rested since she isn’t in the starting 11
June 28, 20196 yr Too bad this isn't on NBC ABC/ESPN. This game needs an Ian Darke, not a JP Dellacamera. Edited June 28, 20196 yr by LonghornJudas
June 28, 20196 yr Ellis is a fucking moron. Outside of the U.S. , Horan is almost universally regarded as our best player. This is a Brianna Scurry over Hope Solo level of stupidity. Just absurd

June 28, 20196 yr Mewis has played well and can match up against the monster CB from France on set pieces, Lavelle is the only really creative MF and Ertz is the irreplaceable leader on the pitch and maintains discipline as the DM. That is the argument. Not a good one though considering Horan is arguably the best MF in the world

Just when you thought "hey she's going to play the through ball right now because this is the best time to play it and create a major scoring chance" she would say "NOPE HAHAHA I WILL HOLD ONTO IT FOR TWO MORE SECONDS UNTIL THE CHANCE IS GONE I AM SO CREATIVE."
June 28, 20196 yr That was an inch from the keeper's left glove and she had no fucking idea where it was.

June 28, 20196 yr Author France is totally selling out and it's going to end up punishing them at somepoint.
June 28, 20196 yr why the fuck are we neymar-ing this match up so much? just fucking play. you're better.
June 28, 20196 yr The worst part about the Mewis dive is that she might have drawn a penalty if she hadn't pulled her leg. The French defender had lunged at the ball and missed it and left her leg right in Mewis's path.

June 28, 20196 yr Just watching the ESPN game tracker but seems like France is getting the better of the run of play right now. True?
June 28, 20196 yr I like Dunn in the middle or attacking...I'm not a fan of her on the back line. Wonder if Ellis is throwing this lineup out there again to throw off the other teams. If/When they advance, maybe she'll change it up...maybe.

June 28, 20196 yr Hopefully she either makes a change with Her, or at the worst, brings in Horan, Pugh, and Press after halftime. Bring some fast, fresh legs, and tons of skill with those 3.

June 28, 20196 yr Way too many wayward passes backward right now. The one from Rapinoe a few minutes back was absolutely regarded
