Some terrible passing.

Pulisic and Bradley have been the worst offenders.

Some terrible defending there. *

Do we miss Brooks that much? Is Besler available? *

Brooks and Cameron are the best CBs in the pool.

Gonzalez might be the next best, and the gap in quality is pretty wide.
Ream bringing down the ball down INTO the area is pretty bad *

Of course, most of the credit goes to Pulisic on that one, but the lesson is clear. The combination of Pulisic and Dempsey is deadly for CONCACAF. I look forward to seeing more of that combo on some decent pitches back stateside and maybe even in Azteca.
Both he and Altidore are being starved of the ball.

This has been a pretty bad performance for the team so far.
That sequence at 30'

Pulisic, to Nagbe, to roller skates...is the pitch that bad? Controlling the ball seems to be the hardest part.

The pitch is shit

So is the officiating. But hey, CONCACAF away matches! YAY!
I have no clue how there hasn't been a yellow card yet.

95% of the fouls have been quite cynical.
Agree. Should it continue like this it'll get ugly *
