  9. All you soccer guys. How with as poor as our offense is can our defense be that bad too? You'd think if our offense is bad its b/c we arent commiting our guys up, but then we can get beat back so easy even with numbers. I dont get it.

      Yes, Ghana is a decent team. And the US would be expected to make it out of the group stage in many of the other groups. However, everything I've said is 100% true regarding the state of soccer in this country. It is getting better, but very slowly. And it will continue at that pace for the reasons I've listed.

      The simple fact remains that in the US, soccer isn't important to many people except during the Olympics or WC. And even then, it's just a passing interest because it is the nation competing. When you look at the average quality of player that comes through our system, it's very, very poor compared to what many other countries have.

      It is extremely slow, but many of these countries have decades upon decades, or even centuries, on us regarding this sport. Soccer far more popular now in the US than it was 20 years, but it still pales in comparison to all the major US sports.

      Don't get me wrong, we are getting better, but it is a slow process that involves many things. Mostly it requires the MLS to improve and our youth development programs to improve. And that really takes interest from Americans in the sport.

      Honestly, the quality of our players is just not very good. We have a young and inexperienced team, for the most part. MLS is not a good league and our youth development programs are far, far behind those in major soccer countries.

  14. What a pathetic display from Portugal. No Pepe, probably no Coentrao...the USA should have no problem

  15. Portugal looks like straight ass. If the US can beat Ghana tonight, our chances of getting out of the group are pretty good.

  21. All you bashers of soccer. Southerners have the same sentiment for hockey. i.e. If Finland can beat us, it isn't a real sport | It makes you feel European like Opera | etc...So before you go calling Southerners classless, look in the mirror.
