Y'all think Deuce likes playing with this kid?


Deuce had four goals this camp, three were assisted by Pulisic, the other was a free kick off a foul drawn by Pulisic.

As an aside, my favorite Dempsey goal ever was his one against Ghana in 06... the ball Beasley played him was immaculate.

Hercules Gomez is not convinced Pulisic is the best 18 year old to suit up for the USMNT.

Hercules Gomez is a contrarian attention whore. Dudes a hack.

It's funny when I see articles saying "is he the next Donovan". As if him and Donovan are in the same position at 18.

That's even worse
If you're going to be a jackass contrarian, don't cave in so easily.

Give him time, I think he's still trying to find his media voice.

It's amazing to me that Donovan only assisted Dempsey three times.


That's an incredible stat. Hard to believe. Misleading also because it could lead one to believe that those two guys didn't play well together, which certainly wasn't the case.

Just one of those numbers that is surprising but means absolutely nothing in real life. An anomaly.

One of my favorite Dempsey goals was his 1' goal against Ghana in WC14. Stepover first touch, ghost a defender & a deft left foot finish slotted far post. Class.

I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that a handful of Dempsey's goal weren't assisted, rather he would take someone on the dribble before scoring. The fact that Pulisic assisted him three times in two games makes it so much more ridiculous.
