I agree with what seems to be the general concensus. The USA coach seems to not know how to......uh....coach. And, yes the USA squad is holding onto the older players abit. I think Reyna has lost a step and even as well as McBride is playing he was better the last couple of Cups.

who the hell is this convey kid!?!?!? he must be watching mcbride to much because every time he touches the ball it goes to the other team.

it's just hard to believe that the players that arema has put on the field is the best in the USA.

the difference between soccer and american sports like basketball and football is that the soccer players don't require a great deal of coaching. They get on the field and do what they do. No time outs. No plays called into the captain. No break every five minutes. There is way too much emphasis on the coach nowaday's in basketball and football.

it's still up to the coach who plays and in what position....

also, don't forget - it's still up to the coach to flog the stragglers during laps
