Welcome back everybody!!
I know this a little late, but I was caught up on several things so I had to postpone my post about the USA vs Brazil Friendly on Tuesday night.
It ended (unsurprisingly)with the USA losing 2-0 to a young but EXTREMELY talented and fun to watch Brazil squad that looked like the match was theirs before they even stepped on the New Meadowlands field.
NOW.... even though the USMNT looked like they were vastly outclassed (which they were). We should not buy too much into this friendly. It IS a friendly not an OFFICIAL match but man, man, man! I really wish we could tie if not beat a weakened Brazil side!
Is that too much to ask people!? Really?! that we score at least once and not be made to look like fools in front of our "home" crowd every time. It also bothers me that we are the only National team incapable of filling up our "home" stadium with US supporters than the opposing team's supporters!
I'm fed up with that but w/e... that's what we US fans have to put up with apart from MANY other things that come with this sport... well in the US that is.
Yet, apart from the clinic Brazil put against the Nats. One thing was made clear to me.... and it's that is there is any position on the field that we don't have to worry about for at least 3 World Cup cycles.... it's the goalie position.
T. Howard though he conceded two goals had remarkable moments in the 1st half and Brad Guzan coming on in the 2nd half also had an extraordinary 45 minutes. He single-handedly prevented us to be severely humiliated Tuesday night. Let me tell you that there are national teams envious of the people we have between the pipes.
But let's move on....
Jozy - I don't know if you were trying to impress Besiktas or Villareal or WHOEVER, but you gotta play more relax buddy! Nice flair here and there but no effectiveness and no efficiency makes you look pretty....but USELESS! but no one will have use for a striker who can't score.
That's like having Cristiano Ronaldo..... without the goals. We need serious help up top, and we need to look into players like Lenhart or Najar, maybe even Pontius----HECK! why not Mike Grella or Lee Nguyen! they play abroad and they both look good and I believe they should get a shot!
Does anyone agree?
We need a striker NOW! we don't need new Donovans or Dempseys because I believe that S. Holden, R. Rogers, Bedoya or S. Kljestan have those spots that demand creativity covered, but we NEED (and I mean with URGENCY!) a new McBRIDE or WYNALDA, people that can score from far or close, near, left, right, volley or header Goals in.
we need people that can stick that ball in the NET 3 or five times consistently.
AND IF THEIR NOT SCORING, they are setting up plays. So that is my Christmas wish list Santa I don't care where it comes from as long as they do their job.
