Ream’s been solid all tournament imo, but he’s the last person you want on the end of the ball in the six yard box :lol:


I agree and think he’s been solid so far, but that’s been against Wales, Iran and an anaemic England. This is the step up, and he’s clearly at his limit.

Out of interest for our American friends, pre-tournament what would have been seen as a success? Last 16? Quarters? 

 

 

 

For me, last 16 but you always hope for more.

I don't know but this counter attack is lovely as the Brits would say.

I mean their path to the final has Argentina and possibly Brazil in it, I can see why he'd take this as a tactic.

He’s a bit like Kyle Beckerman. Does little things very well, good positional sense, but extremely limited.

I think he sets up his teams based on the players he's got to be honest.

Have the US not got a big, physical forward they can just stick up there as a nuisance?


I guess they do.

I can comfortably say getting drunk at 9am and going to college town bar was not the move for this game
