pretty fucked. what lineup do you want to see? I have a feeling we are going to see wondo and beckerman instead of nagbe and besler in a 4-4-2
>>
Maybe this game could be the awakening of Pulisic.
Just imagine meeting Messi could potentially trigger some goatness in him.
>>
Start beckerman and Wondo. Replace Bedoya with Nagbe for some offensive flair. I'd like to see Zusi in place of Bedoya because nagbe can't defend and we need to be more conservative for this match

What chance is there that Klansman starts Pulisic in place of Wood?
>>
>>68755053
>Johnson up in midfield
Will this actually happen? I have a feeling that he'll keep our back four as it was the first two matches

>>
>>68755224
Try telling that to Xheattle and Xortland
>>
>>68755196
if we're getting BTFO in the 2nd half we might see pulisic for a few minutes. if it's a close game we'll be playing bunker ball for the entire half with a defensive lineup.
>>
>>68755256
Yep, pretty much. That's why I'm saying we almost certainly start beckerman in place of jones, and keep Johnson and Ledlin as our LB/RB.
Zusi for Bedoya instead of nagbe since Zusi is more defensive minded.
Idk who starts for Wood
>>
>>68755053
Super defensive. With a maybe a chance to counter

Dempsey

Johnson Nagbe Zardes

Bradley Beckerman

Besler Brooks Cameron yedlin

Also I'm an American staying in india for a couple weeks
>tfw was on a 13 hour plane ride while Mexico got btfo by chile at my home stadium
REEEEEEE
>>
if Klinsman has half a brain he'll play defensive and wait for the counterattack. Otherwise Argentina will score 8 goals
>>
>>68755308
Pulisic can actually defend somewhat, from what I've seen while watching a few of his bundlesliga matches. So it won't exactly be blitzkrieg if he plays him. If we used some dogshit striker who never tracks back and only poaches instead of pulisic we'd be in trouble

if you can lock on Messi and force Mascherano to commit mistakes, then the match can be yours

löäw generally is in full experimental molde duriong qualifikation and rotates new prospects throughout these games. that often leads to shitty drwas and losses against no name team, when some of these kids inevitbably fail hard.

Who will end up guarding Messi for most of the match? Beckerman?

>>68756543
Zusi has played well this tournament
>>
>>68756974
Saw speculation that they'll have beaker and Johnson on the left, with beckerman watching him when he comes centrally. Makes sense, but I'd rather use nagbe and try to hold possession a bit, leave Bradley in the #6

No, it's becoming more and more competitive, so countries with shit stats because of years of being shit are now making the tops of the lists, it's in fact better than ever, the only two countries that have been consistently great are germans (thanks to obsesive precission and eficiency) and us (thanks to a golden mediterranean breeding grounds and our implacable search of success to feed our egotism)

I wish northamericans all the best. Unfortunately they meet us in semis, finals would've been a whole different story, just because Messi and Higuain can't score a fucking goal at any finals apparently.

In all honesty I just hope we lose today, I hope that till Higuain leaves, we never win shit. Higuain is such a curse, fucking cancer, fat bag full of shit.

This team won't win nothin till Pipita Higuain dies.
