Landon’s son getting sent to B team because every MLS development club has a mandate not to shit the bed with the next Chris Richards or Alex Freeman who knocks on the door is so funny
@chrisnwoolson@Bd_irB_ll Haven’t watched him at all honestly - seems more than up to it on the defensive side which is what we need in that spot with Dest higher than McKennie
As everyone gets excited for US Men's Soccer, keep in mind that they have never won a World Cup and still get celebrated as the default US soccer team while the women's team has won 4 cups and barely gets recognition on a national stage.
Mediocre men will always outshine outstanding women, as long as the patriarchy controls everything.
Tyler Adams consistently makes excellent choices in possession plus provides physical ball-winning, at the base of midfield. The bedrock of this USA team. Nothing would work without him.

And I think Poch knows most of his reserves bring the level down so far the team can barely function with them on.
As a result, we’re playing with what is effectively a very small squad - so the added rest between matches under the new format and Turkey friendly are huge.
1st game: healthy 1st choice lineup (1st time for Poch)
2nd game: only 1 omission
That’s the story for success so far.
Outside of the 11 we started against Paraguay, the bench is honestly 6 deep before disaster strikes:
Scally
Trusty
Reyna
[Maybe] Aaronson
Pepi
Wright
Hear me out…
Maybe I’m dreaming, but I haven’t seen a team yet that makes me think, “Yeah, we can’t beat them.”
Not saying we’re favorites. Not saying it’ll be easy.
Just saying if we keep this momentum, stay locked in, and take it one game at a time, why not us?
The path is tough for everyone.
Keep doubting. We’ll keep playing.
