These dudes have just been smashing countries lately, and they are really, really fun to watch. Even for soccer.

Follow the games in this thread, post goals, etc...

Things going well so far tonight. Zardes got in the way in a good way, and Cameron being a huge target.

GloryDayz · 03-29-2016, 06:29 PM

Well that seals the deal! nice..

Missed the game...for those that did, 4-0 USA.

Really impressed with the young guys. Especially Pulisic.

Kid handled himself in his first meaningful touches tonight. He even busted out an elastico to create space and get the cross in across goal. Then later, after initially being pushed off of the ball, got physical and won the ball back. A lot to like in so few minutes.

Wood is doing some nice things. He's sound in every aspect, athletic and aggressive.

Yedlin stepped up delivering a great ball in on the game winner. Made a nice move to make space too. Great night defending.

Nagbe got the game winner, which seemed like an opportunity goal more than anything. Good changeup from Bradley.

COPA should be interesting.

Excited about Pulisic, Nagbe and Wood. Brooks as well.

Yes. This. You said it better than me.

Was going to include Brooks too, but couldn't remember any specifics from the game.

Tackled the ball and broke up a possible score inside the box on a fast counter attack. Really athletic.

Bedoya seemed to fit better with these guys as well.

Brooks' header against Ghana in the WC might be clouding my judgement.

aturnis · 05-25-2016, 08:40 PM

I think he's played really well. Certainly deserves to be there I think.

GloryDayz · 05-25-2016, 09:31 PM

After wasting so much money watching SKC play lazy last weekend, I'm not sure how enthused I am to watch and match that has an SKC player in it. I think they should be back working with their paid-by team and figuring-out how to not suck. Sorry to be a downer, but Saturday was an expensive and terrible game to watch, and there's no sign SKC will do anything to fix the problem..

aturnis · 05-28-2016, 07:59 PM

Yeah, a lot of the time Zusi just looks like he's in the way. There are a few players I've never cared for what they offer. Thankfully were gaining options.

Dante84 · 05-28-2016, 08:00 PM

That young kid is fast as shit. Looked good!
