zenryan Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 This Copa tournament continues to embarrass itself. The play has been bad, the crowds have been worse and tonight they played the Chilean national anthem for Uruguay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3GamesToLove Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 I really don't know what CONMEBOL/CONCACAF/USSF were thinking when they priced tickets SO HIGH for s*** like Peru and Haiti. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox_Sonix Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jun 3, 2016 -> 08:35 PM) Anyone else see the rumors of Arsenal buying Jamie Vardy from LC? Also, rumors are that Tottenham want to sign 19 year old striker Breel Embolo Rumors are rumors during the silly season, but the Vardy to Arsenal seems very likely to happen unfortunately. As for Spurs, they're also considered "favorites" for Batshuyi, Slimani and Wanyama too. They're obviously not signing them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't want to see Vardy leave, especially after the season LC just had. If they sign Embolo, he'd be a great replacement with a much higher ceiling.

Chisoxfn Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Hell of a nice win. Now lets do it against Paraguay and advance to the next round and than see what we can do (got to get some positive momentum heading into the next set of qualifiers).

zenryan Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 How did Paraguay not beat Costa Rica? Going to be tough against Paraguay. Paraguay got hosed on the travel (Orlando to Pasadena to Philly in 7 days) so that should help a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Just need a draw vs. Paraguay to advance assuming Colombia doesn't completely mail it in the last game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox_Sonix Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Decent game overall...better teams would have punished us early on though. Zardes is really brutal at the international level. He seems like a really good kid but I just don't know if he's cut out for the USMNT. At least as a starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be time to give Nagbe or Pulisic a try at starting at forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Oh wow. Can't believe Brazil didn't make it through... Turns out Colombia losing actually worked out for them. They avoid Argentina in the semis and get a easier team in Peru than Ecuador. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather have Peru and Mexico/Chile than Ecuador and Argentina. Ah well. The Chicago semifinal will probably be Mexico-Colombia. Look forward to that.
