Yea, that’s what I’m getting at. We either don’t have any consistent/understood tactics in that half, don’t play the players that match those tactics, or both. I know where my money is. If your game plan is to push down the wings and serve up wide crosses and look for set pieces, play guys on the wing with great service and guys in the middle that can get on the end of stuff in the air. Zardes isn’t that guy. Pepi is that guy, and you sat him on the bench for 60+ minutes, most of those already down a goal which allowed Canada to sit even deeper. Just clinical levels of dumb and it’s not just this game. Outside of Pepi going off, this team has generated absolute shit for scoring chances the entire hex. That’s with guys like CP, Dest, Reyna, WM, AARonson, UCL quality players, on the pitch. That should be a fireable offense for a fed that gives a shit.
and yes, he definitely said that.
