Message: [QUOTE="DarthGrumpy, post: 2876229, member: 2141"] It was basically Columbia's A team (along with at least 50% of the crowd in Tampa) against the USMNT 2020 team with a handful of subs due to injuries. I think Adams in particular was badly missed. USA had issues with Columbia's speed all day and did not do a good job clogging the midfield passing lanes. Columbia was also very physical and I saw a bit of an imbalance in terms of what the referee considered a foul between the two teams. Didn't see who it was but a US players got showed into th ad boards along on slidelines on one of Columbia's goals. Anyway, my thoughts: [LIST] [*]Steffen - Was OK. That said, I would like to see Horvath or one of the other young keepers get a shot next week in E. Hartford. [*]Yedlin - Qute game, which on the defensive side is a good thing as Columbia went after the other wing. [*]Miazga - made some good plays; but, also wandered a bit too much and got caught out of position several times [*]Brooks - Seem disinterested and did not help Robinson at all who was under siege. [*]Robinson - Has talent, especially going forward; but a defensive liability right now and no team can afford that at LB. Needs to raise his soccer defensive IQ. [*]Bradley - Past time time to step aside. And by the way, losing to T&T should still hurt. [*]Acosta - One minute I want to pull my hair out, the next, I want to hug him. [*]Green - He can play in the middle of the pitch, interesting. That said, he needs to prove himself on the wing as center midfield is where the USMNT looks strongest right now. [*]Weah - has a lot of potential; but, it will take time and there will be good minutes and bad minutes. [*]Wood - Seems to be finding his poacher instinct again for Club and Country and loved the effort on his goal. For 2020, I see him coming off the bench late when a goal is needed. [*]Saief - N/A [*]Picault - N/A [*]Delgado - Ah, no [*]Sweat - N/A [*]Sargent - I want to see this guy start a match to see what he can really do. [*]Novakovich - N/A [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
