It's more T&T that looks absolutely horrible. They should have brought their B team like last time...at least they knew how to defend... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrstepp817 Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 T&T looked bad....US looked very dangerous and could have easily scored 8 or 9... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eventually the talent trumps work rate if you can't get on the board. They had the chances in the first half. If Pulisic plays like he did in the second they are the second best team in the competition. If not, they are very beatable. Soft in midfield.

CanadianSoccerFan Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Judging by how awful Trinidad were against Panama I'm not surprised. 7th consecutive match without a goal. As for the tournament, not a good look when only Group B has anything realistically on the line on matchday 3. king1010 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C at least has 3 teams in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrstepp817 Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Group B and D and has first place on the line in both groups....I think Haiti plays the Ticos closer than people think... First time expanding to 16 teams so some of the groups may be a little lopsided early.....but in the long run those countries will be helped by advancing to this tournament johnyb, Red and White and cronaldo7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that matters. Some people on this board questioned Herdman's sizzle. Maybe they were clueless because they haven't followed closely what he has done with the women's team and how he has a high standing in Canadian corporate circles as a motivational guru. Herdman has the qualities of a visionary corporate CEO who finally instills a firm wide culture in what was previously a rudderless operation with high turnover, low commitment and inability to attract/spot high quality talent. And if he stays long enough, it is designed to stay after he leaves. ted, johnyb, apbsmith and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if he stays long enough, it is designed to stay after he leaves. People were pissed at Cav and criticized him like crazy cause he said the CMNT players from 2014 WCQ campaign lacked passion, desire and culture. Cav was playing in Uruguay at the time and even Antoine Grieezmann said the passion Uruguayans have is one of most passionate footy cultures in the world. OZ and a few other factors behind the scenes got him back on board, and Cav has been 100% committed since the "culture shift". Anyone who hasn't seen the identity/culture shift is blind, sure of course it helps having better players, but there are tons of top nations with great players who fail without the proper mindset, identity, culture. Couldn't be happier with the direction, although still very early stages, this is not an overnight project by any means.

dyslexic nam Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Martinique give Mexico a good run, but ultimately fall 3-2. While I like that we beat Martinique by a better margin, I am a bit nervous that this will light a fire under Mexico. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
