This is some awful play by the US. Given the size of the WC bubble, I'd prefer not to see Johnny, Scally, CCV again. Richards is close too. Balogun isn't the answer at 9 either. Try someone else.

I haven't seen this many players get caught in possession in their own 3rd in a very long time.

GG better put his A team against Brazil.

Edit: 5-1 is about right based on the performance.

A lot of work to be done.
The defensive transition from the midfield has been horrible
The defenders are not national players. It seemed like every Colombian goal came off a US defensive screw up.
The Colombians are extremely chippy. As Santos once said- if you play the Columbia’s be ready for a 90 minute mugging

Amazed at the size of the Colombian fan base. Those $2500 Visa cards being given out come in quite handy!!!

Worst exhibition of futebol I've seen by the USMNT for as long as I can remember. Nice job.

Oh my. They have to fire him now.

They have to. We can’t play another World Cup with him in charge.

GB caught with his pants down again. Decided not to post the low lights. This was an embarrassment from start to finish.

Good.

We will flame out of the Grouo stage and Gregg will be out.

Probably end up in the USL.

To say they laid a major egg is an understatement. Way too many 2nd choice (or worse) starters. Too many guys still getting chances without the production to justify it. Worse, the defense was wildly unorganized. Everyone playing one v one regardless of what was happening around them.

Horrible giveaways aside, the lack of a plan is GG's responsibility.

Yeah, that's the worst they've looked in awhile. The passing was atrocious. Gave away the ball so many times. Actually lucky to only give up the 5.

Weah's goal was a nice sequence though. But much too little of that.

Just did not look good. And that was, for the most part, our "A" team. Or what we think our "A" team should be.

USA gets Tyler Adams back for Brazil. He's a dog and what we need in the center of the park. He's been injured for much of the PL season so we'll see what he has in the tank for Brazil. We will need him on form in the tournament, but he's not going to solve the passing and spacing woes, and I think Brazil is just a bit better than Colombia :cool:
