OT: 2022 World Cup Thread
- Thread starter cshelley
- Start date
We have a set piece coach, well he’s done a bad job. I haven’t seen many good chances off set pieces in this tourney.
Heard a rumor OC McNulty was moonlighting as the set piece coach...... 😉
we clearly have talent but too many mistakes on D and missed opportunities on O.
I don’t watch like you all but just from this WC, imo we don’t have finishers or the consistent skill in the final 1/3.
US and Germany are my teams but I like underdogs so I hope Japan can make some noise. Croatia and likely Brazil will be hard though.
They aren’t so much developed as born. We will have Messi here in the US soon. We should pay him a stud fee and get him to make some baby American strikers.
Great tourney...we're still very young...on to 2026...at home...
No soccer for another 4 years. Looking forward to that thread!
We will.
They are the hardest position to develop and the US youth system doesn’t necessarily support the type of selfishness needed to be a world class striker.
The academy system will fix that. We have that player - but he’s probably U14 right now. 2030 World Cup.

You think if the Netherlands "really wanted" they'd win 8-3. First time watching the sport?
Good tournament by the young team. They showed a lot of that youth at the start of the game. But lots here to like and be hopeful about for the next WC.
you're just an asshole sometimes..
this is one of those times
I always hear oh USA soccer is coming along and is going to be a major player on the international scene . It’s always the same old crap and disappointing result . We have been to the quarterfinals once in what 30 plus years ?? I mean it’s nice we won a game this tournament …but cmon . USA soccer stinks when you factor in our population and resources
Will be interesting to see if any of the Americans springboard to transfer after this cup.
I wouldn't say "great" by any means. I would say satisfactory. Met expectations.
Hahahahaha. I credit you for your consistent approach to all things.
You must be a food or theatre critic as your day job.
This tourney is not over and the Euros in a couple years. Those are the ones I usually drop in to watch.
