The Soccer Thread (Version 12) — Revenge of the Backup GK

[Webster]

The strange is like Arsenal in 2003-04.

I hope the sex was worth it. I mean, it had to be that - right?

Could be right up there with Charlie Davies and John Harkes in the pantheon of USMNT unforced errors.

 

[Inky_Wretch]

Welp, here we go.

 

[HanSenSE]

Which obscure network is carrying this one?

Which obscure network is carrying this one?

Paramount+, the CBS streaming service, though to be fair it's the same place the Champions League airs now.

Also, a reminder that US Soccer cannot control who other federations sell rights to for qualifiers they host. That said, it looks like a package deal for many of them went to CBS.

Leave Berhalter and the entire management of U.S. Soccer in San Pedro Sula, for all I care.

What's Bora Milutinovic up to these days?

 

[PCLoadLetter]

I'm watching on Telemundo.

Suffice it to say, whoever first called soccer "the beautiful game" did not foresee the current iteration of the US Men's National Team.

 

[TrooperBari]

Sure is weird seeing Brooks spend almost as much time wandering forward as Sargent. I thought it was the young, mobile defenders who were supposed to be zipping about while the steady veteran presence holds down the fort.

 

[UPChip]

There have been some hints that the field is slow, but the passing out of the US tonight has been horrific.

 

[poindexter]

This is a disaster.

 

[Inky_Wretch]

I'm logging onto Football Manager and sacking Berhalter from the USMNT - hoping it will happen IRL.

 

[Inky_Wretch]

Pulisic hurt? Lovely.
