It isn't?
i have said the team & poch have done amazing plenty of times.
stop seeing what u want to see as normal.
ps. poch & the team have done amazing.
hope thats on the record now.
feel free to ignore this post as normal.
The weird thing is that more people in the United States grew up playing football than any other sport.
This is getting way off topic, but you want to talk about infuriating when it comes to development of US football?

Remember the buzz around Julian Green?
He "became American" and unfortunately it's been all down hill from there
Uhhh. Did you quote the wrong post?
And you gave no credit to our team in the post I quoted, only slagged off other teams. Why not just accept that the team is playing well despite the lack of striker and dm signing that had half this board saying we are doomed?
:adelol:
We're not talking about way down the line. We had a team full of really good players and good young players which should have been the set up for a good future. It went to shit faster than you can say "Poch Out"
The pussification of American is a very real thing. To further prove my point, as an American I must apologize for using the word pussificatioin. Sorry if it offended anyone.
One of America's big problems is the mls. It's such a weirdly set up league with such weird rules every time I have looked into it.
I get that it is a logistical nightmare to run it like the PL though. You guys have some serious distance to cover for away games.
Yup. I get pissed thinking about the German Americans we've poached to help our team but that's a discussion for a different thread a different day.
Away culture in the States just does not exist.
For some reason I thought you were English this whole time. I can't keep up with all the Americans on here :chadliblow:
The best thing he ever did for us was his goal against Belgium.
With that, slightly back on topic. Poch has said he's not going to bring in a last ditch backup for Jan and instead would just promote Carter-Vickers.

The youth system in America is a joke. I know from experience.
They look for athletic and physical players. If you are not tall, strong or quick.. you'll probably be overlooked. Technique and understanding of the game is not paramount at all, they don't think about the game but rather just focus on being as physical as possible. I heard actual scouts and coaches say that's what they look for and things like a persons vertical is what they really care about

Very true. And the same people who were saying it would be pitiful / negligent / unforgivable / pathetic / inexcusable etc. etc. etc, if Levy didn`t finally secure another striker in January, having failed in the summer, are the same ones now making excuses for him as it seems more and more likely this signing ain`t gonna be happening.
