Hi again - my pick of the Galaxy drawing every game from here on out still in tact….

 

[ucsdguy1]

2-1 to the good guys! In front of 82K no less

 

[rinkrat]

That was insane! What a crowd! Great game apparently too.

 

[What party?]

Ucsd:
Maybe you're not "that guy" but fun thread titles that could have been *ahem*:

Footie
All Derbies, All day
offside trap (queens)
Row Z squad

Yes, I good-damn did the research. You think this is all natural comedic talent?

Galaxy acquire defender Tony Alfaro from NYCFC.

yay?

Embarrassing loss to Panama in San Diego tonight. The USA coach looks like a tool, wearing a brown polo. The colors of the USA are Red, White and Blue. Couldn't find one of those colors in your closet.

I did see a scooby doo meme of unmasking the ghost about the USMNT coach that I 1)cannot find again and 2) did not understand so, not really contributing to the conversation but having fun typing. *chuckle* Orange slices for everyone! =)

I take it as a learning experience. Panama outplayed them for large portions of the game. We looked like England taking those PK's.

On to the Berhalter pt II era.. @Moog is stoked

Yeah he's pretty good, but he's no Robbie Keane.

The galaxy still suck.

The USWNT better put on a show tonight.

Portugal POST malone remix:

I've been Group Play too long/
population 4 million how I see the same bitches?
(same bitches)

Team USA is trending down (yellow cards, as in plural? Gurl.) and the Dutchies have their foot on the gas.

Carli Lloyd ripped the USWNT a good one this morning. I have to agree.

Yeah pretty underwhelming again. Second team that has schooled us on quick one touch passing. We again resorted to kicking the ball forward and hoping something happens.

That portugal shot off the post was insanely close.

No Lavelle in the next match hurts tremendously.

This version of the USA Women's team has no cohesion, no plan, and seemingly marginal personnel in key positions. Dunn especially is getting beaten far too often. But I am looking squarely at this coach as the main culprit producing a poor game plan and bad roster decisions.

From the sound of these posts the squad needs more than a "glow up". Hmmm. I'd take a gutty loss in the knockout round then an inexperienced/youthful/blah blah blah buzzwords for being unfocused team across the board in a WC. oof.

Where's that tea sipping energy?

USWNT has the quality.
The coaching is poor.
Tactics? Cohesion?
