This country is losing its humanity day by day.

Man, we needed this performance BADLY. The S. Korea match was absolutely atrocious. Now we have, at least, a glimmer of hope with this 3 at the back system. Hopefully this becomes permanent & we now have a vision/identity whereas before, we had none #USMNT

Kudos to him. I think this 3 at the back system made a huge difference for alot of the players, including Roldan. He won't start above Weston or Musah in the midfield, but he's deserving of more call-ups after tonight. I was impressed.

Freeman is another I'm super impressed with tonight. Haven't been crazy about him either, but he's shown his natural athleticism & speed make him a challenge for the opposition. Just has to clean up his dribbling/possession. #USMNT

I have to say, Roldan has put in one hell of a shift tonight. I've never been too crazy with calling him up, but if this is the version we're gonna get moving forward, I'm good with it #USMNT

This back three system is definitely the move going forward. Now, we need to get all our best players called up & playing in order to nail this thing down before the World Cup #USMNT

Less than a year away from the World Cup & this #USMNT has been nothing short of pitiful. I think the manager is in over his head & has no idea what to do with this team at all. He's throwing sh*t at a wall & hoping something sticks.

Michael J. Pagán @mikejpagan.bsky.social · Sep 6

At this point, I think the best way forward for the #USMNT is to focus on playing disciplined, compact, old school USMNT-type ball. Our players are not creative nor tactical or disciplined enough to play aggressive.

My word is this #USMNT is pathetic.

This U.S. backline is a disaster.

Not enough people talk about Guru's Jazzmatazz albums. Amazing pieces of art.

Wow, Crystal Palace are dumb. You're gonna lose Guehi regardless, either in January for a much lower fee or lose him for free. Either way, he's gone. Just goes to show there's no winning in showing class to a club, which Guehi did. Raise hell like Isak & others & you'll get what you want.

The reds have not been nearly at their best these first 3 matches. To win them all is incredible.

Michael J. Pagán @mikejpagan.bsky.social · Aug 31

Endo to close out the match.

Sublime from Dom. The man has been incredible these last two matches #YNWA
