Low key
They really don't :heh:

What did I say that was funny? I didn't say they'd win global championships or be the best in 10 years. I just said they have some young talent. Gedion Zelalem, Emerson Hyndman, Julian Green, Yedlin, Jordan Morris (Maybe?), Bobby Woods (Maybe?), all the German born players if they can stay healthy and continue to grow as players.

Yes, I know they aren't the anything like the German, Spanish, or Dutch youth players, but there is some hope.

That wasn't Germany D team. They had ozil, klause, that one baby face kid and the guy who hit his header on the cross bar at the end of regulation. That's the best execution USA has had in a while and they seem to be very fast on the pitch. As someone said earlier it's a step in the right direction and hopefully jurgen can just improve on this and that's the biggest thing. If he can get the guys to believe. And these two games probably went a long way in the right direction for that. Because the chemistry has been pretty good. Better than the past and they seem sharper. Bradley is playing back to before his World Cup slump form. It's a brighter day in USA men soccer.

Zieler, Rudy, Mustafi, Rüdiger, Hector, Schweinsteiger, Gündogan, Herrmann, Özil, Schürrle, Götze

Thats like 1 regular starters :dead:. They are still missing their best player in Reus.
Gotze came on as a sub in the final and Schurrle is usually a sub
The Back 4 is usually Hummels, Boateng, Howedes and Lahm(Now retired)
None of them started :dead:
