I'm glad he had a good game obv, I want him to be good but he's a defensive liability

Sargent and Pefok are my #9s

On a completely unrelated note: Can someone explain to me what the male sports bra is all about?

Forget defense. His attitude is go-to-goal! And he has technique. Smooth fluidity on some of his dekes. Not like Lainez or C7, but like el fenomino Ronaldo lol

Think we are AK versus QQ against Qatar. They are not unbeatable, they tied Panama and almost blew game against El Salvador

And there are no really strong teams in Asia

Dike not separating himself from GZ, but people still laughing at GZ, laugh at Dike

I'm heavily laughing at Dike. USMNT twitter heavily pumped his tires bc of a 3 week run in a league that's worse than MLS at the bottom and he can't do anything against meh Caribbean sides lol

Been injured awhile, played his first match in awhile very recently. Different position anyway

Dallas has another stud and maybe the future USMNT 9. Ricardo Pepi Is 18 and just got a hat trick and has 8 goals in 9 MLS starts this season. Maybe could have cap tied him at the GC, but glad we brought Tardes instead. Pepi's parents are El Tri fans, but he's been on USA youth teams.

He's also likely headed to Serie A. Predatory cap tying is trash. England has been doing it and would have with Musah if they could have too. (Though I do think players can get out of their cap tie now with some weird 4? match rule by X age)

Qatar is +250 to win in 90. US +105. I'm more inclined to agree with you. They don't defend particularly well but we can't punish that. This, to me, looks like a Mexico-lite game where we just get punished and defend for 80 minutes.

Should play a counterattacking lineup and park the bus. Don't have the horses here to win outright.

Yeah, I hope I'm wrong but I think we end up on the wrong end of a 2-1 score

They will have a few moments of brilliance and we will not exploit their lapses

if they're gonna put Hoppe on the wing they should play Zardes bc Dike is slow and bad

and probably worn out. dude has been playing non-stop all year.

I think the dike hate is overblown. he is a solid player and I want him in usa#1 future plans. but there seems to be some perception that he's the 2nd coming of messi and he ain't that. at least not yet...

he got overhyped by bullying the championship for 15 games in a system that fit his style and it's annoying

there are people that think he should play over Sargent and Pefok who are far and away better
