As things stand, Manchester City is not only a contender for the Premier League, but also for the Champions League. They have incredible depth and assuming De Bruyne becomes official in the next couple days, that depth will only be furthered.

4 games, 10 goals scored, 0 goals allowed. Pretty incredible start to the season.

Absolutely. I think the signing of Otamendi announced our intentions

Costa is killing it. Best signing of the summer transfer window, period.

I'm not criticizing or examining anything until the Mexico match. He has to get us a win there. He has free reign until then in my opinion. I was furious after the GC.

If they lose that game (which I'm 95% sure they will) Klin's job should be seriously evaluated... If he leaves the Rose Bowl without a job I'll be fine with it...

Don't put that evil on me. I really want to win so we can get the Confed Cup experience for the next WC. I can't evaluate or I'll get so pessimistic about it. I need some hope. I completely agree he needs to be evaluated regardless just for our GC performance. Who are we gonna get? I'd like an established manager, but who would come to build the U.S. system?

Shut your whore mouth. 95%? come on. we have completely owned them the past 20 games or so.

did we lose to Mexico?

They won the tournament. They are playing well and we are playing poorly. Does that mean we will lose? Of course not, but the fact that we woefully under-performed at our last major tournament, while Mexico won that tournament, does not instill a lot of confidence.

Not in games that mattered... and in the past year we've been collectively horrible aside from one Euro trip where we played a bunch of college kids.... should have stuck with them apparently.

I just heard Jozy Altidore called "the Great" on a commercial while rooting for scUM to lose. I don't really think he qualifies. I mean, are we comparing him to Peter and Catherine? I don't think he compares favorably to anyone.

I know ACamp is gonna hate me forever for this, but I am so over Gonzalez as one of the central defenders on USMNT.

Brooks has been phenomenal tonight in every aspect besides the easy finish he should have had that he skied (which may have been offsides).

Gonzalez has been sloppy and has given the ball away many times. Defending on the ball is great as always though.

Jermaine Jones was our best player tonight besides Altidore. Altidore was the best strictly for his work rate. Both his goals he EARNED. They weren't beauties but he deserved each of them.

It's imperative Jozy get back on the scoring horse. He was in fantastic form heading into the WC.
