What the heck did I just watch?

It looked like a flat 4-4-2 with the midfielders alternating attack. It's almost like Arena accepted the fact that Jones will roam and the other midfielders will have to adjust accordingly. Meanwhile Panama bossed the midfield leaving Deuce and Altidore isolated up top with no connection to their midfield. It was really awful and disjointed.

Seriously, why was Altidore even on the field. I'm not hating on him. He just didn't serve any purpose in this kind of game. A 4-4-1-1 with Pulisic behind Deuce would have made a world of difference in my opinion.

I hope to never see that formation ever again.

        He's not injured, he just doesn't play - spade 2017-03-29 16:34:46
