If you had to rank all the players in the world individually, approximately where would Pulisic fall?

At one point you could say he was almost top 50, surging with Chelsea, but lately not so much, he's not even starting.

I think you could make an argument for him to be in the top 100.
Like 99th.

We can do better.

Pulling for Wales today. If the winner was in any other group I’d pull for Ukraine. Just don’t want to deal with that story at the WC.

Sounds like Ferreira is getting the start again today. A little surprised with that. I thought Wright might get the call. Not going to be surprised if it’s a 45/45 situation though.

USA opens the World Cup Monday November 21st ( dumb ) v Wales.

England Friday after Thanksgiving.

Iran the Tuesday after.

All at 2 PM.

Besides the Friday, kinda shitty dates/times.

We got the latest possible times slot for all 3 games. Not sure how you can complain about that. Other options are much worse.

Give me something like Belgiums schedule with a Wednesday before Thanksgiving, Sunday and Thursday.

Rather than a Monday and Tuesday.

Wales is a good team, better than the other two, but the support and story behind Ukraine would have been powerful stuff.

Instead we get an older crew who haven’t been to a World Cup for 60 odd years. Bale will be a handful. A tie with them would be alright bc they play Iran before we play England so we would know better how to play the England match.

The Iran game is the obvious must win.

Tonight’s lineup might be our starting one for the cup except for Reyna.

Robinson, Dest, Zimm, Long prob our back four.

Agreed. Although Long the least secure of those 4 right now. Playing well today though.

The graphic ( starting lineup ) they showed did not match at all who is in.

I only started watching full time at 8 min mark so I’m just figuring out who is in.
