This American team has peaked. In 2018, they won’t make it past the group stages. However, the future is bright for Jamaican football. Gradual improvement over the years.

This American team that played in the Gold Cup which was compiled of a majority of MLSers trying to break through into the USMNT? Yes, some of the regulars USMNT players came through and played in the knockout stages, but the list of USMNT players who didn't play is the core of the younger talent.

John Brooks
Pulisic
Yedlin
Bobby Woods
Fabian Johnson
Timmy Chandler

There is a lot of young talented American players who are playing overseas who are still waiting on their call ups to the national team.

Emerson Hyndman
Cameron Carter-Vickers
Weston McKennie
Median Zelalem
Brooks Lennon



We have to have someone better than Susi at RB

Zusi is buried below Yedlin and Timmy Chandler in the pecking order. I also assume if it came down to it they'd move Geoff Cameron out to RB in an actual game that matters over Zusi.

:mjlol: Somebody is just mad things didn't go his way.

It's been how many tournaments since Canada has made the final of the Gold Cup?
It's been how cycles since Canada made it to the final round of WC qualifying?

I aint mad at all im just stating finishing second here doesnt mean ur rising...

Canada hasnt done shyt for 30 years cuz they put no money into training,academies or trying to lure talent and develop it like they are finally doing now...

Japan had Kagwa at Dortmud/United, Hodan at AC Milan, and other Japanese players in Europe and were humbled at the world stage. In 2018, you are still relying on Jozy, Bradley and Dempsey with Pulisic, who basically another Green(huge flop).

2018 WC, even if you make it, you won’t make it past the group stages. 2010-2014 was peak America,
Pulistic is a flop like green? :mjlol:

How did I miss him say that? One guy gets regular minutes in the Bundesliga and Champions league while the other player only gets playing time when on loan or in International Champions Cup friendlies.
