Reinert310 Posted September 9, 2021 Author Share Posted September 9, 2021 I’m done defending this team. That 1st half was absolutely pathetic. There’s no excusing it. Just absolutely atrocious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slufanskip Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 The US plays like they can string together 25 passes and work the ball up the field. The reality is the only way they can string together 10 passes is if they are all backwards and that actually is likely to happen pretty often They are kind of like the rhythmless guy on the dance floor who has no clue he can’t dance. They’re damn lucky Honduras is just bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheA_Bomb Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Pepi provided a nice spark. Played with more intensity in the 2nd half. 18 yo from El Paso, then FC Dallas system. They produce a lot of talent never won the MLS. That was looking really bad for a while. Maybe they can keep up the intensity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BilliesBy40 Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 ¡Ricardo Pepi! Pepi saved Gregg’s job. Full stop. He was involved in all 4 goals and was exactly what Sargent is not: a goal producer. Props to Gregg for his willingness to make changes to begin the game and throughout the game. He needs to continue evolving for this team to reach its potential. We can breathe A LOT easier now. Get healthy before the next window of games next month.

slufanskip Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 For me the Robinson boys should be written in ink. Brooks place should be questioned. Pepi plays until he proves otherwise and Aaronson is moving the needle up. BilliesBy40 likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing 3 games each window, we’re going to have to rotate guys, but he’s going to have to play better. Both Robinsons and especially Aaronson should be written in ink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobillsgo Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Jedi looked as good as he does for Fulham. Pepi was a beast… just remember Sargent scored on his debut too. I think Aaronson is gonna be recognized as our best player before long… the Medford Messi. very happy with the three points. Not happy with Gregg. But I said before the window, 5pts is the minimum for Gregg to keep his job, so for me, he gets one more window. Need at least 6pts next window.

HoosierPal Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 After a horrible opening lineup, Coach B did the right thing by bringing in 3 subs and rearranging his formation in the second half. There was no connection between the back line and the front line in the first half. Moving the pieces around certainly helped. Coach B owns the horrible first half but he also gets credit for seeing it wasn't working and making the necessary changes. Was Brooks hurt, sick, or disinterested? The two games he played in were as bad as I have ever seen him. There has to be a reason for his play. Yes, it was an incredible debut for Pepi....all of 18 years old! Once he grows into his frame, he will be unstoppable. And after wearing the goat horns on his Defense v Davies in the Canada match, Yedlin's cross to Pepi was perfect.

I’m definitely super excited about the kid, but US Soccer fans have a tendency to overhype and put way too much pressure on any young kid who does anything. I certainly hope he can handle the pressure of being our 9 of the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
