    I am speechless

    I was sick in bed with the flu all day yesterday....woke up just in time to watch this game.  It almost made me start puking again.  I don't even know what to say.  The worst part is that Pulisic will be sitting at home next summer.  Like others have said, he looked like the only one that gave a shit last night.  I'm fucking done with Bradley and Jozy.

    It's time to clean house at US Soccer.  Obviously Arena will be gone, but Gulati needs to go too...what a fucking fucking disaster.  Unreal.

    This boggles my mind.  It makes absolutely no sense.  I about lost my mind when I heard after the game that Cameron was healthy.

    I was reading last night that Gulati will likely survive this.  F the reelection, the dude should resign.  The US will get the world cup based on the country and infastrcture in place. It makes no difference if Gulati is in charge.

    No Tab Ramos.

    This is bad.

    And not to mention that Fabian Johnson was left off the squad entirely for these 2 games.

    The Worst Loss In The History Of U.S. Men’s Soccer

    What a goddamned disaster. A bunch of low-energy, unmotivated scrubs wearing our crest. Pulisic was the only guy who looked like he gave two shits. Where was the urgency? Where was the hustle? Bruce didn't care about this game, spent no time on the lineup, spent no time on tactics. Instead had the team mentally focused on water on the pitch. Good work. Another 600+ days before we play a competitive game. Time to burn this house of cards to the ground and rebuild it.

    So Dempsey doesn't break Donovan's record? I think he gets some time in trash friendlies over the next year and probably still will but I wouldn't be surprised if he is done. I think he wants that record though

    I don't think Howard puts on a national jersey again. Bradley sure as fuck shouldn't. Jozy played as bad as a game as you can possibly play. Lot of big time careers are done. I hate Bradley.

    The worst fucking thing about this is the experience of pulisic. What a fucking disaster. He is the only one who looked like he gave a shit

    I do not want tab ramos as the coach.

    Somehow Sunil will survive this. 

    This is fucking pathetic. What a fucking disaster. Can't tie Trinidad to make the World Cup. 

    Blow it up

    maybe your yankees will win..... :triumph:

    Arena is out.  Hopefully Gulati is next.  

    I still can't believe this actually happened.  Fuck.

    The fucking ego on this guy.  Unreal.

    He's clearly a really smart kid.  Made some really great points as far as the way younger kids are developed in the US.  There seem to be more and more younger American kids signing with European teams....absolutely love it and hope it continues.

    Also, still can't believe the US isn't going to the World Cup.  Fuck.

    Yeah, it sucks. It's been a good run, though. Maybe the team needed a wake up call. They haven't looked threatening at the actual WC since 2002.

    Yeah, obviously had a lot of help with it, but like all his points and agree.  Though I think the entire format of our youth programs need to change more than he does.  You know how expensive it is to get good coaching on a good team?  Insane.  It is just not accessible to the vast majority of America.

    Like, the US not making the world cup sucks, especially coming from CONCACAF.  Buuuuuuut Italy, oh my.  What a disaster.  Lot of careers ended there today.  Buffon deserves better.
