@StanUsmnt He looks like a good creative soccer player, but a bit of an unathletic one. Not the most complete player, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t useful.
@cmk424 He was perfectly average. Not bad. Just does the job like many others could do. Needs to be surrounded by actually talented players, which he is.
@ProspectsUsmnt Name 5 teams in the World Cup more athletic than our starting 11. Ream plays the role of calm distributor. Other guys hustle on defense/counterpress/interchange. Paraguay did nothing in 1st half.
Poch understands that our athleticism is important.
@ProspectsUsmnt I agree generally. I thought the subs were very underwhelming.
- Berhalter: he covers no ground, looks awkward defensively, and is just a cog moving the ball.
- Reyna: other than the goal, he wasn’t great if we are honest.
- Weah: athletic but reckless
- Pepi: mediocre today
