USA v. Mexico
7:30 PM CT
Metlife Stadium, New Jersey
TV: FS1, Univision

Sergino Dest is going to start for the MNT for the 1st time tonight. Hoping to also get a glimpse of Pomykal during this international break as well.

Match is in New Jersey so expect it to be a heavily pro-Mexico crowd. Its so embarrassing that we can't have a home field advantage against our biggest rival. Wish we'd just have this game in Columbus, Portland or Seattle.

Nah, I say embrace the hate. Play in front of the biggest crowd possible in LA or Houston or wherever. Win the game and rub their faces in it.

Brooks not starting is puzzling since it's already announced he's going back to Germany agter the Mexico friendly. WTF?

This line up is just embarrassing unless there are some clear injury concerns. Start the best players, it isn't that hard.

Ugh playing a half ass lineup against your biggest rival. Can we just let Berhalter go already

Incredibly sad this is the team we choose to march out against them...my belief is this pressure is coming from above berhalter.

Brian McBride proposed the correct lineup to play tonight on ESPN earlier. Maybe he should get a look as coach.

Who knows. Maybe Brooks came to meet Berholter and train abut but asked not to play.

Other than Trapp and Zardes, I don't mind it.

So I'm with you, but Trapp and Zardes are huge liabilities. Particularly bad when you consider the lost opportunity for Josh Sargent and Pomykal.

I bet both get about 30 minutes.

But yeah. There is no reason for Zardes and Trapp to play.

I continue to be at a loss as to what US Soccer is doing. They wasted a year hiring a coach that they could have hired at any point in time in that year. They continue to play B team players during a clear rebuilding process when they should be getting every healthy A player every minute of playing time they can for growth and cohesion.

Yes...I'm the only one in the country, or this thread questioning our line up. (Sarcasm)

You can either be half glass empty or glass half full.
McKennie, Boyd, dest, Cannon, Morales and Steffan are all reasons to be excited.

So you can choose to be negative or positive. So can they.
I'm not happy with it. But might as well enjoy some of it.

And I don't disagree with you.

Jeff, the choice is yours. You can enjoy our team or you can complain about it.

I'm happy Dest is starting.
