errr being told you aren’t going to start and then being shitty in training and warm up scrimmages is a great reason to criticize someone.
Reyna has been mercurial his entire career, I would be very careful about taking his (well, his agents) word about exactly what happened.
They had a great reason to not start him. I have zero complaints of playing the MMA midfield plus Weah and Pulisic. Especially when they floated into the 4-4-2 formation against England/Iran. Sure as shit won’t start when he turns into a little crybaby over not starting. Needs to grow up.
There are 100+ guys at the world cup who think they should play more
It’s still not exactly clear what happened. He might’ve been told he wasn’t starting against Wales because he wasn’t ready yet (defensible decision given he wasn’t 90 minutes fit even for club, and Weah clearly has performed for the US), could’ve been that he was experiencing tightness he wanted to play through and the coaching staff wanted to be more cautious and limit his role until further in the cup, or it could’ve been that they just thought he was better off the bench than the other options (Pulisic, Weah, McKennie on a formation change, Sargent on a position change). I think more has to come out before we actually know if GGG was actually in the wrong at all.
Regardless he shouldn’t act like a baby regardless of the reason, unless (even then…) Gregg was being a complete shit bag or behaving unreasonably, but given his own teammates were furious at him and Adams got into a scrap with his effort, I’m willing to bet it was something reasonable.
100% this. If berhalter can’t keep this shit in house he shouldn’t be manager. This is classic shit every team goes through, it just can’t be public
Yeah I still don’t know why the hell he said it to this conference when McKennie’s escapade is basically the same thing and public. I know it was thought to be off the record, but come on dude. Though apparently Athletic was going to release it on Monday anyways through a source.
hype!
Last ride for Leo?
He might have one more in him as an impact substitute.
watching in spanish… wtf is argentina doing?
Not much juice for a Tuesday semi eh?
I’ll get things started:
Why can’t both Argentina wear their iconic white and blue stripes and Croatia wear their iconic red and white checkered shirts? I feel like we are smart enough to tell the difference.
#FIFAFashionCup
Edit: and don’t get me started on this dirty nicotine smokers teeth ball they are footing around out there.
Croatia killing the game trying for 0-0 as usual
I’m a dummy but it certainly looks like Argentina is giving Croatia almost all of the ball and will be looking for a quick counter PK flop.
except for the flop part lol
Don’t like the pk call tbh I think that’s a charge
What a sage.
Was that Lovren or Gvardiol who got absolutely lost there?
loooool
what in the world?
