@MikeGrayAFC @ManagerTactical Who would be a better option?

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@LangmanVince The first half of the game he wasn't injured

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@KingOwen12 @sambrazy Pulisic by a long shot. But I think it fair to criticize him for his last few years, especially this tournament when it was his time to show he's a superstar and he didn't do anything. Every team's top star usually steps up in big moments. Pulisic had 2 wc and hasn't done much.

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@KingOwen12 @sambrazy Hasn't played in a Gold Cup since 2019. Got grouped last Copa at home. And 1 wc goal. If that's carrying the team that's not very good.

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@KingOwen12 @sambrazy Carried the national team to what?

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@sambrazy He has been a part of the 3 biggest USA soccer failures of the last 20 years. Skipped a tournament last year to "rest". Then no shows at this world cup. Seems fair to criticize him.

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@CalebNoeTV Dempsey would've still played

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@NorthFultonJP @EinSchwarzwelt I mean he got grouped at home and didn't make any progress, that's why he was fired. Yeah we should criticize the coach. I just don't know what he could've done better in this game. I think this game falls more on the players.

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@NorthFultonJP @EinSchwarzwelt Yeah the coach goes down with the ship. But he's not the one playing. In the first half nobody could make a pass. And his goalie gave Belgium a goal. And his "best player" lost possession every time he touched the ball

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@11Yanks The Paraguay game was an outlier. Besides that game, the whole cycle and world cup had bad performances and results.

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@usmntonly No show once again

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@derBovo Yeah but in Basketball or NFL when something random with no intent like this happens they call it a "basketball move" or a "Football move" and move on with no foul. Since this happened in normal in game movements.

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@BosniaNTBall You would say it was a bad call if it happened to Dzeko...

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@HarisankarAG1 @TaylorTwellman Yeah Messi was worse... Messi was looking right at his opponent and still stepped on his leg, when the ball wasn't even close. If you want to give him a yellow sure, but red is a little harsh since plays like this happen every game if you go frame by frame.

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@HarisankarAG1 @TaylorTwellman Maybe go back 5 seconds to see both of them got their legs tangled going for a 50/50 ball. It wasn't even a tackle

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@FAmmiranteTFJ Why wouldn't we want one of our best players?

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@1legflamingo Yeah this one is worse

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@ScouTurk Nobody was saying that, actually most people said it would be a challenging game

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@ScouTurk You won't become world champion finishing last in the group

[Luke Bartlett @LBart24]

@sancho7pancho @USMNT_Thoughts The B team of the "Kings of concacaf"
