I called for it against Jamaica. To me, the game was decided when Donovan subbed in...give Freddy the runaround for the remainder of the game. I know, keep Donovan playing, blah, blah, blah. But Mr. Bobbo got a lot of flack for including Freddy on this roster...PLAY HIM!
I have been really disappointed with Michael Bradley's play. He's not been as active as what I've seen from him in the past games. He's had a terrible time defending. I am not a Kljestan supporter at all...but he hasn't done ALL that bad.
I am just really bummed that Feilhaber and Holden aren't healthy. They are my two favorite players for the USMNT right now (excluding Timmy Howard, of course). I'd like to see them come back and find success.
Agree on all accounts. You included Adu for a reason. Use the kid. Otherwise, what was the point. He isnt your typical sub, like most of the guy on the bench. He was included for a spark...and we have needed it every damn game, yet this is the first time he is used.
Michael Bradley has SUCKED. I dont know if he cant play along side Jermaine Jones or what? But if thats the case, it sucks, cause Jones isnt going anywhere. They are our 2 best central/holding mids right now and they need to learn to work off each other. They just seem to get stagnant. Im not saying they can do what Spain or Barca do..but at least emulate the movements. That midfield is a thing of fucking beauty. Busquets and Xavi or Xavi and Alonso, or Alonso and Busquets. Any combination kills it in the role.
I agree about Holden. I would love to see him get some meaningful play in the mid. Feilhaber I like and then hate...but I do wish was healthy. He could help this team.
