How appropriate that they wore those jerseys. A great victory for USA hockey.2-0 win! I loved watching the US wear their pseudo 1980 retro jerseys too.
The level of smack talk Canadian fans were doing before this game was pretty epic. I followed one Twitter thread and read all through the comments and the level of ---> that went on was hilarious.How appropriate that they wore those jerseys. A great victory for USA hockey.
And Aaronson joined RB Salzburg this week and started training.USMNT Euro-stud update: Wes McKinnie comes off the bench in the 64th & scores Juve's 3rd to ice a desparately needed win over the Serie A leader AC Milan (although without Z. Ibrahimovich). AC Milan was undefeated until today. It was a Manchester derby in England's Carabao Cup tourney. Zach Steffen gets his 2nd start in a row & 2nd shutout in a row as City beats Utd 2-1. And the beat goes on for the Yanks in Europe.

American Teen Yunus Musah Turns Into Gareth Bale Only For Teammate To Turn Into Timo Werner
Update: Yunus Musah is very fast.the18.com
Is Musah definitely going with US or is he the guy that has 3 options: US, England, and one other nation, to decide who he competes for? The US definitely needs to get him as his pace is absolutely ridonkulous.Huffy's guy young Musah is only one among an embarrassment of riches we have playing in Europe. I still worry that Beer?halter will screw up the works by overloading our WC quals squad with MLS guys, particularly those who failed so miserably a couple years ago. Not necessarily saying that there isn't some quality in MLS, but to eliminate certain Euro guys with invaluable experience in top 5 leagues in favor of MLS guys without it is just stupidity. For example, the current (abbreviated) call up includes Acosta, Altidore, A. Long & Lletget. Why? (although the reason is prolly that the Euro clubs are in the middle of their seasons & Beer?halter has to look busy.)
One year later from this post and Gio is a star in the making. Indiana is on loan to League One where he has 12 appearances and no goal and has been left off our U23 roster. As noted then, never get too excited about USA strikers in Europe.Indiana Vassilev made his debut for Villa in a league tie over the weekend playing about 30 minutes and holding his own.
And Claudio’s son Gio Reyna may be the next big thing at Dortmund if Sancho is sold. He’s only 17 and made his Bundesliga debut as well on the weekend. M
Vassilev has a bit of a better pedigree than Sargent but I’m not sold on either. Both need significant maturity.
Gio is a little more intriguing. He’s a playmaker who likes to track back and defend with punishment. In other words, a dose of what American needs. Whether he is ready to do it against grown men in Azteca next year is a different story. But we may have an extra place for the USMNT offense to pivot on the pitch besides Pulisic very shortly. Which opens up some tantalizing possibilities just like when we had his old man and John O’Brien.
I try really hard not to get my hopes up with young USA players abroad, but these two could be special and end our bunker shape and incompetent out of the back attempts. We might really be able to stretch the field to the chalk like what Berhalter likes to talk about doing but can’t seem to make it work.
It's beyond sad. These two haven't scored a meaningful goal for the US in about 3 years. And yet, Beer?halter is still in love with both of them......Zardes because he coached him at Columbus & Altidore, who will be 33 or 34 @ WC time, because of some past glory.Sadly, Altidore and Zardes are still are two best strikers
The pressure these EPL managers have to plate the high priced transfers they acquire is sad really. Last season Pulisic was on fire when paired with Mount and Abraham or Giroud. This year with Werner and Havertz (when he actually makes the field) there is no chemistry and Werner absolutely will not make a return pass to Pulisic or Mount, 2 guys who can absolutely bury the ball in the back of the net.Well, if Beer?halter insists on playing either of these up top, we'll need a goal scoring winger at the 8 to clean up after them, & we've got plenty of those. BTW, it was Pulisic vs Antonee Robinson yesterday in the EPL. Robinson, playing as well as ever until he screwed the pooch with a horrible tackle that earned a straight red just before halftime. If Fulham had a goal scorer, they would be moving up the table. As it was, Chelsea still struggles to score but managed a goal by Mount & won it. CP did so well during the EPL re-start last season on the left side. Frankie has started him on the right the last 4 or 5 matches and it's got him discombobulated. He needs to bench Timo Werner, whose confidence is shot to hell, & get CP back to his natural position.
Kid is on fire for sureThink the title of this thread should be changed to “Hoppe?”
Hoppe scored again for SChalke. today. 5 in 3 games.Think the title of this thread should be changed to “Hoppe?”
Wow, just wow!! Less than a week ago, we noted that Comrade Abramovich was not happy. Well, Frankie is out, & Tommie is in. That is Tommie Tuchel, late of Dortmund & PSG, both clubs of which fired his a$$ also. Tuchel had some success at both places but not enough, apparently.
We know that Abramovich has a history of canning coaches. However, to dump a Chelsea & EPL icon after only 18 months as coach, is just shocking. Fans, former players & current & past coaches are not particularly happy about it. Chelsea is 11 points off the top & 7th or 8th in the EPL table & going nowhere fast. I guess I understand Abramovich since he spent over 220 million pounds (about $300 million US) on guys like Werner, Hayech & Havertz who haven't done squat in goals & assists. I never much liked Tuchel at Dortmund when CP was there. And he got PSG to the ChLg final last year but in a loss to Bayern. Still, it's kind of sad for Frank Lampard.
