jpg75 Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 As much as i hate Honduras, it's better for the region if they beat out Australia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianSoccerFan Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 The whole American soccer universe (fans, media) got WAY above its station the past few years. I used to like their team but the arrogance has gotten way too much. Hopefully this will give them a bit of humility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOcanadafan Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I'd be OK with this if it wasn't because of two blatant fixes from the other games. We so easily forget that Mexico let Honduras tie them on the final game to eliminate Canada in the previous round. They need to get rid of the Hex and go to a more head-to-head format that can eliminate the match fixing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrstepp817 Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 LOL sad performance from the USMNT...maybe this is the wake up call thats needed....after the Centenario they should have cycled in more young guys and they just went with a lot of retreads and it bit them in the ass...every kid from the U-23's and U-17's should be getting serious looks in camp soon....Pulisic, Wood, Yedlin, Nagbe (maybe), Altidore (maybe) are the only ones on this squad who should stay for them..the rest need to go it's time..

1996 Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 The soccer haters in North America are loving this, can’t wait for all the soccer hating writers to come out and hate . If your a soccer fan here in Canada this is not good for both countries and the popularity of soccer in North America, ya I know many on here will disagree but our countries are so connected like no other two countries in the world.

mrstepp817 Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Anyone who has interest in US Soccer should have a cow...US Soccer needs more guys like Twellman who care.......the attitude of entitlement reeks...Arena made no lineup changes..they looked lazy and lethargic all night...He starts Gonzalez and sits an EPL guy in Cameron...unreal lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Beaver Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I still do not understand how the US is ranked #28. I know the rankings are sort of bogus, but come on. I do not hate the Yanks, but I DO feel they are way over rated. Big question: Is Costa Rica the bona fide #2 power in CONCACAF? I mean, could one make the argument that they have been #2 in the region for at least the last two or three years? And as much as I detest Honduras, I still want them to beat the Aussies, if only because it reflects best for our region. Makes one wonder if we'd have seen a significantly different result for the US had Arena been the boss from the outset. Still, a loss at home to Costa Rica and a loss to T&T when a tie would have sufficed, all fell during Bruce's tenure. Still. Maybe the US needs its own domestic league. (And what does any of this mean for the rest of the gringos in this region. No USA, Canada, Jamaica going to Russian. I blame the language. We do not need the CPL--we need Spanish-language teachers.)

matty Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 So what do we think? Arena, Gulati and maybe Garber gone? All the 28+ guys done? Less MLS? Mexican coach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bison44 Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I hope we dont see some sort of back lash in MLS. How can the league be worse for canadians? Not that MLS really cared about developing soccer in Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dub Narcotic Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 It will be nice to not have to hear about the whole Trump-Russia stuff for the entirety of next summer. They clearly rode their old horses too long. As for being overrated they finished first in the last WCQ cycle and won the last Gold Cup so I don't know who has done a lot better in CONCACAF recently.

Panama drew at home to Costa Rica, and so beating them at home is hardly unbelievable. And frankly, both Costa Rica and Mexico had advanced already, so that is a right that they have, to field a weakened squad. And if it wasn't a weakened squad, then they earn the right to take a night off because they did the job earlier. Same for Mexico vs. Honduras in WCQ.
