that is fake....
And now his pops is on Twitter claiming he was not alone but that he will not be snitching. Not helping dad, not helping. What a mess.

Read somewhere the British press went after Greenwood not Foden.
I'm in this lane. Cap ties him and good lord he can't be any worse than what we have seen.
the problem is we played the wrong number 9 in each game. Pofek shouldve started the first game that was more physical away, then had sarge in game 2 against canada at home where we couldve used him better up top. Just more examples of berhalter genius.
I am apparently addicted to US soccer podcasts, but there are some good ones out there. I can't remember if it was the guys at Scuffed or Allocation disorder, but they were making the point that Herdman said that he was listening to the media talk about how the US was having issues scoring and so his tactics essentially became: "Hey US, here is the ball, I dare you to do something with it". Berhalter was not ready for those tactics, as they were not the same as Nations League, and so his initial set up was woefully deficient in combatting the Canadians. He is also a stubborn ass and refused to change anything. His comment after the game when asked about the late subs: "everyone was performing to standards, so we didn't know who to take off" is terrifying.
They did.
they did but i wasn't going to mention him as he plays for United and Foden plays for City so he was the main dickhead behind the problem
I can't see Panama holding on, but that does not matter. I would like to think that a draw/loss tonight would instigate change but there is absolutely no way it does. GB is their man and they are going to ride that ship to the bottom, their roles depend on it.
Oh I think no way we fire Gregg either. But man if we are 7 points back of Panama that's a tough gap to make up already
Unless tonight is a roaring success (dominate US win) I guarantee we are going to hear 2 party lines coming out of US Soccer:

I wouldn't say that Canadians are as fiercely anti-American as the Scots are anti-English. The relationship between the two countries is similar in some ways, though. It's pretty fierce when it comes to hockey, however, men's and women's (and juniors).
they look like a team that has no idea what they are supposed to be doing. Possibly because almost every player is playing out of position in a formation they have never used?
Totally agree. They should have a numerical advantage somewhere in a back 3, usually the wings, but they are totally out of position. The lines are so flat and when they go forward, it is so disjointed.
I can't even be mad a the players right now. Looking through US Soccer twitter before the game no one could figure out what fecking formation we were going with. Looks like the players are confused too. This man is the worst coach we have ever had.
As @Vanrouge stated earlier, there isn't too much animosity from Canadians to the U.S. On the other hand, half of the Americans respect Canada whilst the other half sees Canada as inferior and not worthy of being good no matter what they do.
Back on topic: the subs are proactive on Berhalter's end, and they've all been good changes. John Brooks was atypically poor, and he had to go off. Lletget coming in and Acosta at right back is interesting, but at least the midfield will have some more energy and dynamism.
I would have preferred Hoppe, but hope will do
