Okay, first, holy crap, that was awesome! We're up 1-0 at the break, a great place to be.
That said, we're absolutely sucking ass out there. We scored in the first minute and then parked the frickin' bus. Beckerman, predictably, has been awful. Gave up a horrendous free kick at the edge of the box (luckily advantage was given for the shot), gives away possession, kicked the ball straight out of play, etc. He's supposed to be defensive midfield cover, and our defensive midfield has been dominated. Take him out, please.
Bedoya has been a bright spot. He's one of the few actually keeping possession, and looks good going forward. Johansson (sp?) showed a bit of flash, and we'll need him. Bradley is playing like a five year old. Absolutely killing our team. Beasley is going to be attacked all tourney. We don't have any other options, really, but he's not getting the job done. Too old, too slow, lacking the necessary technical skill at the position. They're marauding down the right flank at will.
Altidore went down. Dempsey has a nose injury. Besler might have a hammy. This all sucks, but you know what, boys? Suck it the eff up. You're not playing well as a collective team. JK, change tactics, and STOP parking the bus. Also, please take out KB
Bradley, collect yourself, calm down, and take charge. Maintain possession, keep composure as a team, and press forward. We can't sit back and let them attack us for an entire game.
