So guys, is this a good time to ask, what the fuck is the CONCACAF Nations league?

Expand  

established in '18, this is the first iteration, delayed a year by the rona.  it is meant to bring structure to concacaf national teams playing during fifa international friendly dates honored during the european club calendar, and is a response to the uefa nations league which was created for the same purpose in march '14.

in other words, money.

By the way - I was a complete dick in this match thread tonight and I apologize for none of it. Fuck you if you doubt Pulisic, fuck you if you trust this org still, and fuck you if you aren't on board after tonight anyway.

This team is stupidly talented and they can do whatever they want to manage these guys or put them in positions to fail but it's not going to matter because this is a freight train building up speed that's end destination is eventually smashing through the World Cup.

I'm hyped for the future for the first time in years.

God I missed real sports so much.

That’s fair.  I’ve started talking with a Delaware County accent after watching Mare of Eastown these last couple of months.

Having lived in Boston, I am starting to pick up the law of conservation of R's.

Oh dear.  They're going to destroy this poor Mexican girl.

 

Edit: Reference.  They're about to bring back the former Mexican national team player that was on before the game.  The guys were giving her a pretty hard time pre-game.

She deserves all of it. She was being a smug bitch all week. Plus she's from California - not Mexico. And I don't care that she plays for the Mexican women's national team - they're a shitty team!

Well gents - this has been one crazy night. I was glad to see us win and live stream it here with you all. Let's do this again whenever this next Nations League thing happens, or even the Gold Cup!

I would give her a hard time pre-game as well.  And a harder time during the game

Fuck you Janelly. All of our goalkeepers stepped up. Don't talk shit about Steffen.

 

EDIT: OMG bullshit - Gooch wasn't talking about physical violence towards Janelly. WTF?! It's sports players and fans talking shit. He doesn't need to apologize.

Also - this might be crazy - but I'm starting to believe in Greg a little bit. I thought tonight was pretty well managed outside of Miazga somehow not being ahead of Ream or McKenzie. Having Pulisic take corners is a great adjustment - and it goes in step with what some of us are saying about him probably optimally serving in a CAM role for this team. 

If Greg figures that last bit out and has Pulisic start playing as a forward 6 with maybe Weah and Reyna on the edges I'd buy in further.

Normal mexico fans bullshit. Running on the field multiple times, and throwing shit at players. In the stands they weren't that bad but I get a few beers thrown at me
