  1. I'll take one for Team Old. I definitely don't - what does it mean? Edit: too late, typical old here.
  2. I didn't realize Hamilton was 38+ and that he's 2nd oldest on the grid by nearly 3 years. Damn he's been around a while.
  3. Beat Iran and we advance. That's about as good as any reasonable USMNT fan could have hoped for going into the World Cup and here we are. Let's goooooo!

    I love CP10 but Tyler Adams is the real Captain America.
  5. Backstory is English fans are dicks.
  6. We were the better team today. We deserved 3 points. Going into this I was hoping for a 1 goal diff loss. So ya, I'm still pretty fucking excited. This was a good sports day. Almond dinner jacket is next. U - S - A!

    At this point, just put CP, Reyna, and Weah up front and let them free flow and play off each other. We don't use a 9 very well and we don't have a good 9 anyways. Just put our 3 best attacking options up front, let them be creative, and get out of their way.
  8. We need a hold up guy - that's how our goal started, Sargent did a good enough job of holding up the ball, allowing CP to make his run and pick it up. Reyna, CP, and Weah would have been bullied out of the way at the onset if they were in Sargent's shoes. Though maybe we are good enough to play through the lines and not try long balls that require hold up play - I don't know, GGG hasn't tried it out yet.
  9. Why not? Also, I don't "have" anyone doing anything, I'm just playing out scenarios.
  10. 9-3-3-3 and then GD. Which is essentially the same currently but you're hoping Argentina loses another game now. There are probably other variations out there but I have 0 interest in thinking through them all.
  11. I think Argentina is a shit ton better than what they showed this morning. In a scenario where I need a win (which the loser today absolutely does) I would rather play an Argentina that is through or only needing a draw than an Argentina needing a win.
  12. I think it kills you because you're getting a fully focused Argentina that will have 0 interest in squad rotation and probably have an eye on racking up goal diff.
  13. The loser, if there is one, would be turbo fucked needing a win against a pissed of Argentina.
  14. She's always been attractive, IMO. Just most of the time you see her on a pitch, covered in dirt, mud, and sweat and now you see her dolled up with made for TV makeup.

    Adams was shit going forward because he was too busy ensuring Wales couldn't counter in the first half and then snuffing out attack after attack in the 2nd. Which is exactly what we need him to do. If Adams doesn't see the attacking third all game, I don't think I care. That's not his job for this team. Musah, McKennie, Aaronson, and Reyna (fuck you GGG) - that's their job to be the MF link to the wings and forward, not Adams.
  16. We'd be hoping for a Wales loss first and secondly a draw while trying to gain the goal diff advantage. But Wales won't lose if England are already through. In that scenario, England vs Wales would be for 1st in the group (6 to 4 on points). I don't think England would settle for 2nd in that scenario.
  17. For all moaning about CP taking set pieces, who else should do it? No one in that starting 11 takes set pieces for club. No. One. Yes, CP sucks at set pieces but unfortunately, he's probably our best option until Reyna, Aaronson, or Acosta come on. Why he continues to take them after Aaronson and Acosta subbed on, I present you one GGG and his infinite wisdom. Most likely.... We lose to England, Wales beats Iran and loses to England. Then we just have to go out and curb stomp Iran and hope our goal diff is good enough. Not dead yet.
  18. Wales wins the national anthem battle. Last thing they win today.
  19. Quick highlight vid. This kid is a stud.
  20. McKennie over Aaronson (if that's even the consideration) is my only gripe - pretty minor all things considered though I am bummed not to see Aaronson and his endless energy play 45+. About as good as we can hope for. Let's fucking goooooooooo!

    Which is also ridiculous. Three, maybe. Two is absurd. Hasn't it been 3 in the past and then they reset for the playoff?

    They all abandoned the One Love armband, choosing to abide by FIFA's rule. 🙄

    With what happened in Colorado Springs, take the fucking yellow and wear the rainbow captain's armband. Sounds like Kane will wear the "One Love" armband and take the yellow as well for England. Not sure the Welsh plan. Definitely know the Iran plan. Regardless, fuck Qatar.

    Aaronson is a must start. Anything less and someone give Beerhalter a beer so he gets thrown in prison. Sargent CP Aaronson Weah/Reyna A and M (take your pick of M) Robinson Ream Z RB Anything that fits that and I'm full "let's fucking go" mode.
