Rousseau 10,610 Posted December 3, 2022 Author Share Posted December 3, 2022 Keown: 'The US keep trying to go through the middle. Its conjested. They need to go out wide.' [Two minutes later...] Keown: 'Weah is doing nothing out wide on the touchline. He needs to come inside, into the [conjested] middle.' [Two minutes later...] Keown: 'Weah is the one bright spark in this game.' 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rousseau 10,610 Posted December 3, 2022 Author Share Posted December 3, 2022 The Dutch have completely nullified the US's game. They like a fast, aggressive counter-pressing game, but they can do nothing when the Dutch stand off and give them the ball. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 15,293 Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 There have been some decent games in this WC bit it's all a bit tame. Not much rough and tumble going on. Sums up modern football in a lot of ways - all focus is on tactics and fitness, with little character or individuality on show. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill 13,717 Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 (edited) I make safe-bet predictions and the underdogs consistently win it in added time. OK, if that's how it works then I'll forecast a USA win. Aaarrrgh. Edited December 3, 2022 by Bill 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sutton_blows_goats 5,335 Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Genuinely thought the Dutch had been poor and the USA had been decent. But the Dutch found an extra gear today. Perhaps Depay returning added it. Looking at the Australian lineup I think they would struggle at league one level in England, yet have made the last 16 in a World Cup.
