I thought 2-1 would be the final scoreline, hoping we'd be on the good side, now I'm just like "anything less than 7"

 

Yedlin so fast

 

I wouldn't even be mad at the score if we looked better/Jurgen set us up better.

 

Yedlin just made Messi look average fast. Wow.

 

I see Yedlin still has that speed cranked to 99

 

BIRNBAUM IS REALLY NOT THE RIGHT OPTION RIGHT NOW JURGEN

 

This might be Mikey's worst game of the tourney, and that's saying something.

 

Why you don't bring on nagbe I do not know.

 

I hate my life.

 

I'll take anything to get Beckerman out of a midfield two, although I probably would have rather Nagbe come on and sit Bradley deeper.

 

During the World Cup I could've kept believing... but tonight? We just look pathetic.

 

That looks like a broken arm

 

His arm looked fucked up

 

Beckerman has looked better than Zusi tonight, though.


This is shocking for Lavezzi. What a weird five minutes... (edit) two* subs used for freak injuries.

 

Yea exactly I didn't even mean the score

 

If Argentina keep hurting themselves we may have a chance.

 

Lamela about to Spurs it for us

 

I'm just trying to enjoy Messi/Argentina at this point

 

We're still in this.

 

This should have been the tournament to transition from Bradley to Nagbe.

Nagbe better have a secret injury.

 

The Beacons are lit! The Beacons of PaulieHope are lit!

 

The worst part about all of this is Jurgen keeping his job.

 

I feel like Klinsmann will NEVER bow down and play the guys the media and fans beg for. I feel like it's counterintuitive for us as a fanbase to band together and push for certain players, because Klinsmann has yet to give in; he'd rather just shit on our faces and act like we're out of our depth.

Donovan, Feilhaber, Trapp, Nagbe, Pulisic, and I'm sure a few others. We've begged for all of them at different points and haven't gotten them.

 

Zardes and the backline carry no blame for me. Working their asses off. Everyone else? A lot to be desired tonight.

 

I put this on Jurgen and Bradley mostly but others do carry some blame. I'm not gonna go all "Fire Jurgen" but his choices didn't exactly do it for me. Wondo being the obvious one. Bradley has been so frustratingly inconsistent and tonight shows it in full.
