All I have to say to Matt Turner is that I hope he doesnt scuff another goal kick. That first goal was a direct result of his really poor kick.

Yeah. But I didnt see Borjean gift is a goal with a 35 yard sky kick. And no one is stopping you from laying it off short and building out.

His defense also didn't stand about as still as statues while the opposition play 1-2s around them.

I will say, while its true he kicked it short he didnt force Robinson, Adams, and Richards to become traffic cones

Rumor that the front 3 is Morris, Pepi & Weah.

Make sense you shouldn't play Pulisic over 270 minutes in a short window in these conditions.

Don't tease me. I desperately want to see us have an AMC who has complete freedom to just create. So desperate I've been dreaming up some really dumb ideas.

At some point yesterday I was even going to halfway seriously suggest moving Dest up there just to see him dribble a guy out his shoes and score.

Not a bad idea to have Pulisic come in as super sub.

Who wears the armband?

Dang was hoping to see a back 3 with Cannon, Zimmeran and Robinson. No wingbacks in the starting lineup though.

Hopefully LDT will provide some service to the front 3

Also it really cracks me up that Jordan Morris, who hasn't played a competitive game all year, is involved in all 3 matches this window

Zimmerman, it's on the graphic

Not sure about CP as a sub in this weather. If he tweaks something after coming on then we have to waste another sub.

Zimmerman is the captain (C) next to his name.

Well after the other two, he's match fit now.

I used to be real down on Morris but he's put in the work to really elevate his game. Your point is valid but he does bring some qualities that few in the pool offer in terms of athleticism and work rate.

I thought Arriola he earned a start tonight

I'm excited to see what LDT can do in that spot. A little nervous for Acosta at 6, but maybe Cannon won't be venturing too high too often like Dest tends to do.

Acosta at the 6 is simply because we have no other 6 with Adams hurt.

Oh I know why he's there. Just makes me nervous. Adams and McKinnie are probably the best American soccer players right now and we have a huge drop-off at 6 any time Adams doesn't play for USMNT.

Acosta at the 6 is a better replacement than Acosta at the 8, imo

Very bold analysis from Stu, look for Morris to deploy tactically differently than Pulisic
amazing insight
