You put him at LB and move Johnson to LW. Besler has played really well at LB recently.

Ok and we still lose 3-0 until our entire team is comfortable enough on the ball that they can beat 1 man and find an open pass rather than just kicking it upfield as soon as someone gets close to them

Landon said it correct. We couldve started ibrahimovic in wondos spot and it wouldnt have mattered. Are dempsey n jones too old also? They have carried us this far in this copa and they are just as old as Beckerman

I don't have a problem losing 3-0 to Argentina. What I do have a problem with is fielding one of the worst possible lineups after saying "We have to take it to them".

We were never gonna take it to them. That was coach speak for we're not gonna bunker. We had 0% chance of controlling possession this game before the lineups were announced

And then he proceeded to put out a line up that the only option was to bunker.

I wouldnt say this was a bunker at. The early goal hurt because argentina got to play 87 minutes knowing we had to chase the ball

We barely touched the ball before they scored. We didn't even get a shot on goal.

Starting Wondo was inexplicable, but we would have gotten raped regardless of who the 11 were tonight.

I guess its fun to imagine we wouldve started a 17 year old attacking mid over him vs Argentina but no coach was going to do that

shouldn't have had to have that decision. danny williams is better than becerkman and could have helped in the back

I think you can blame him for starting Wondo and Zusi instead of guys like Nagbe.

We likely would have lost even with no suspensions and all our starters. That being said Jurgen put us in a terrible position to even compete with the lineup he put out there, and with his shitty call-ups which finally came back to bite him in the arse.

Why did we need to be bold? Messi would have pooped on our collective chests whether or not we played Nagbe. We had the worst 11 players on the pitch. Starting a MLS 10 who is mediocre in tracking and coverage was not the elixir.

Argentina was class but you can definitely blame Jurgy for this. Beckerman should never have been an option for this team. You don't put out a lineup like this and then have half the team pressing and half the team sitting back. Also we used our size and speed advantage poorly.

Because sitting back was guaranteed to give us the same 4-0 result.

The problem is we have no viable replacement for Jones. I thought Beckerman would have been the best for his defensive discipline and ability to recycle possession, but there was no good option.

yeah we didn't try to play outside strategically and instead went for the early longball on the sidelines

jurgen hates using real 10s and wants to use bradley there and it's a disaster

jurgen hates DMs who aren't bradley or becks

we had no speed thread at forward

just ridiculously timid. at this point, we all know jurgen is going to frick it up badly if he has to think
