Findley AGAIN? Christ! We cannot have a youngster that can't hold onto the ball in the fracking lineup, especially against speedsters that we need to counteer by POSSESSING THE BALL! Ricardo Clark? SERIOUSLY? The guy who CANNOT HOLD THE BALL!!! EFFING BRADLEY!!! I swear to god, if we lose because of his EFFING lineup idiocy, I will be the first to call for his job! FRACK!!!

I was so pissed off about Buddle that I didn't see that Clark got the spot over Edu. Man oh man.

so that's it? buddle's claim to fame is one friendly and one or two other scoring opportunities that he failed to convert? by this measure he's just as much a bum as jozy is if not more.

I think what some people here are not giving jozy credit for is the havic that he(himself) is causing. he was a beast against algeria and dropped out of the box and caused problems. his goal scoring must come though. ultimately that will quiet the crowd. look at donovan...he had a game to forget against algeria...but that goal was a career defining moment. there is much more to soccer than scoring goals. right now jozy is doing all of the hard work...eventually I feel that will pay off for him as he moves forward.

I am not contending that he walks on water..... What I am contending is that his style mesh's well with Jozy and he was the HOTTEST striker on our team.

And your entire response defended Jozy.... I have no issues with him starting.... It's Buddle playing next to him that should be the no-brainer.

Ricardo Clark can kiss my ass


Hopefully we can put 20 to 30 minutes together of card free ball from him before Edu comes in...

Edu & Buddle need to be put in by the 35th minute.

there you go zeno, how long did it take for ghana to score their first non PK goal? don't underestimate a WC team.


clark should have been off the starting squad b4 this tourney started. IDK what bradley see's in him. many of us commons have said we don't want him before the cup started. he single handidly has given away goals to open both games that he started.

It was a mistake by our side that gave them that shot, don't go tooting your own horn. They won't score again...the game could very well end 1-0

Gana looks very impressive. Their passes are very accurate and they're pushing the back line with their speed.

If they could shoot straight the US would be in serious trouble. They move the ball great through the MF and aren't giving us any space on their side of the field but aside from the goal all their forays in to our space haven't put a lot of pressure on Howard.

eventhough ghana hasn't scored goals they have looked very impressive. people read too much into goals...obviously. especially on here.

Hardly excuses, again Ghana hasn't score more than 1 goal in a game since last November. They aren't a good offensive team--giving up an early goal allows them to play the game they prefer, play one man up and pressure the ball all over the field.
