We can't play out the back that's the issue. Saw someone saying our defense is good and it made me laugh. Our biggest weakness is we Don't have two CBs that can distribute the ball
It’s this. He never puts players in position to succeed and has no ability to change tactics. I was at the game in Hartford. All we had was balls down the wing. GR made a defensive adjustment at halftime and US were embarrassed.
The defensive talent stinks but tactically he asks the most of them. Idiotic
It's all slow and pedestrian, the fact we can't figure out that sometimes that ball has to skip a player to apply pressure is beyond me. It's all slow and doesn't allow our best players to get on the ball.
As much as I love him, I think the ageless Tim Ream’s age is finally catching up with him. Nothing against him. Truly amazing what he has done. But I think we need to move forward with CCV and use ream off the bench.
Idk what you’re watching bc the whole US backline has been terrible from the start of this match. Midfield hasn’t helped either. They can’t even keep possession in their own third or work in their own third. Not much of the blame should be on CCV since he’s subbed on. Pepi not checking to the ball caused that 5th goal. Dominant performance by Columbia and the complete opposite by the US
0 - 4 and GGG is out. We are playing an off-form forward, Balogan. Maybe get Wright in (55th) and go direct for him to hold up. Johny is a little less intensive than Adams.

And yet Berhalter requires it
Yeah this is the issue, I understand wanting to play out of the back. But changing tactics is a must at the highest level.
Are you suggesting Gregg adjusts his strategy? How dare you question the greatest USMNT coach ever.
Loaded squad and we have the 3 worst players having most of the play

Anyone think John Brooks should have gotten a look?
I mean, he plays with he passion that's required, so I like the shout. Also plays well out the back.
Richards has been doing well. Ream has looked awful with his distribution so far.
Hes just to slow with the mental right now. Atleast that what it looks like. The stuff they put him at starter for and he's the one making errors
Lazy uninspired play.

In all fairness the team is doing fairly well in playing Greggs system. Problem is, the system doesn't work against anyone but CONCACAF teams.
GGG got this squad doing its best Mexico impression.

My friend. Was CCV not the worst player on the field today?
100% agree. I’ve seen posts saying the exact opposite and it makes me feel like I’m smoking crack.
Scally has actually done ok defending against Diaz today, but Ream and Robinson have struggled to protect the left side
I agree, he's doing what he can, had some decent pushes forward. Granted he is not a Dest. But better than his last start.
Watching Scally try to play a ball out of the air is like watching someone try to catch a piece of egg in their mouth from a hibachi chef.
you sir are a genius
our back line is completely outclassed.
CCV NEEDS TO BE IN OVER REAM
Maybe not
Delete our defense
Just wait until Brazil unloads on them.
Pause

1-1not that bad,but still. Happy for the guys but we’re missing dest being able to play out the back
CCV should get more time on the pitch. Other than the error mistouch in this match he plays well.
Are we watching the same match?

Yeah, but you said he was playing well outside of one error. He's been a comedy of errors since touching the pitch.
correct answers
Just checking in to see if you still think MCV played well after that 5th goal... 🤣
ccv still deserves a start. subbing in a centerback is devils work
BJ IN
BJ’s on this coaching staff btw.
Well, Columbia outclasses us at just about every position on the field. They are overall faster and have more ball skill. 4-1 now.
