Well, Bruce Arena v.2.0 starts in roughly 20 minutes. Game is on ESPN2 at 4:00pm ET.

USMNT v. Serbia

Not too thrilled it's Bruce. So, time to see what this squad does. Mostly MLS guys due to not being a FIFA international break week.

USMNT v. Jamaica on Friday 2/3 at 7pm ET.

Terrible first match for Arena v.2.0.

Little positives from it, Nagbe about the only bright spot.

Jozy coming out saying crap about the formation caused the lag in play. What a joke.

He's already critical of Arena and the 433. Says it doesn't suit him. Lame excuses.

I think the biggest problem that I have with soccer could be solved with instant replay for premier televised matches. If a yellow card foul appears to have occurred, the referee will gather the two opponents, the booth replay official will call down to the field referee and let him know if the yellow goes for a foul or a dive. I think it would take 20 seconds to clean up the game and produce better watchability.

I don't mind it.

I'd like to see a version in white or gray.

No white or blue. Makes me think of Russia or China.

It's basically the same jersey but 2 tone red.

Completely agree with this. Just terrible. I hate them.

But also a black trim? Why not white or blue? They suck.

Pulisic killed it today. Please be the real deal for the USMNT.

Let's get this guy going again.

With Chelsea running away with the EPL and the Crew kicking off the MLS season, there is a lot to talk about!

Didn't see the USMNT match Friday, but nice to read about a beatdown for a change.

Was Tim Ream in this lineup with the hope we would forget how bad Michael Bradley is??

I'd take Bradley over Jones. Jones does nothing. Bradley does slightly above nothing.
