  • Don't give Bradley credit until he actually makes this tactical change. Until then he is over his head..
  • He made the change somewhat against T&T placing Sacha in a link midfield role. Whether that was a one match change or a sign of things to come will be determined in the next two matches.
  • Think about Torres, Adu and Jozy playing together! Torres plays in the middle for Pachuca so I'd push him to the middle, move Beasley back to the right and have Donovan out wide on the right side.

    Freddy and Torres need to develop some chemistry and overlap and cover for one another. They need to start playing together this Saturday.

    I love this idea and hope Bradley is going to act on it.
  • None of these guys have the creativity I did!
  • What is missing in US Soccer men's National team is experienced coach on the field. Our players look too much to the sideline, and by that time the ball is in the back of the net. If team does not have tactical strategy that can be implemented without coach sideline instruction then we are destined to poor performance in high level matches beyond qualifying stages.
  • I hope you are wrong, but fear you are correct.
