July 1, 201411 yr in a game this wide open Yedlin isnt the worst, hes got a lot of speed so 1 mistake by Belgium could lead to an opening.
July 1, 201411 yr QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 04:50 PM) Beckerman and Altidore in the second please. do you risk bringing in Jozy after having to burn 1 sub already 25 minutes in? I dont think its worth it right now.
July 1, 201411 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 09:49 PM) We got dominated but hey 0-0. I like this Yedlin kid a lot. I'm listening on the radio (which is TERRIFYING), and it definitely seemed like things opened up when he came in. Agree, save Altidore for if we go down a goal.
July 1, 201411 yr Yeah you cant bring Altidore in until much later due to the 1 sub already being burned. Im not sure what Beckerman will do, the problem is that the US isnt taking advantage of Belgium giving them space on the ball, and even worse players like Bradley are not making good passes. The 2 decent passes he had led to US scoring chances, just have to play smarter.
July 1, 201411 yr Dangerous 1st half. Belgium created tons of opportunities. Some nice balls by US but need to clean things up a lot on defense. I believe that we will win.
July 1, 201411 yr Fitness on this team is horrendous unfortunately. Funny considering all of Kilinsmans talk coming in. Let's steal one though. We still had a few chances.

July 1, 201411 yr They are playing terrible and completely impatient. As soon as a belgium guy is within 5 yards they are passing it into bad areas. They need to take the space they are being given, because its clear belgium wants to counter. So the US is just playing right into it.
July 1, 201411 yr Yeah, pretty sure this is last US game barring miracle (which has been Tim Howard, frankly), so I've turned on video.
