USA v Brasil

Its starting, US looking good with Donovan up front it looks like...was fouled in the box with no call...should have went down
 

Neymar & Pato w/ nice goals. Dunga leaving them home looking worse by the minute.

A lot of hype around the Neymar yoiungster. Now I see why. He looks about 14, but boy can play no doubt.
 
US is getting dominated on the wings and that last goal by Pato was as easy as could be.

Even Howard's distribution has been poo.

Pretty disappointing if you're a US fan. Feilhaber needs to get back in the middle and further forward. Edu and Bradley are taking up the same spaces. Buddle is playing 1 on 4.
 
You know how on youth rec teams, there's usually one or two best players and everyone else just gives the ball right back to them? That's what the US looks like right now... whenever Donovan or Bradley make a pass they just find the ball back at their feet. And Bradley isn't doing so great, so that leaves us with basically a one-man team (even more so than usual).
 

I think some of these players are just flat out better than the ones Dunga brought to South Africa.

Robinho looking like the 3rd or 4th best Santos player on the pitch for crying out loud. Felipe Melo had been playing poor for at least a year, I'd have slotted this Ramires cat in a second over him. Pato may not have been fit, but if he was he should've been there. His pace is such a threat. Even Ronnie had an excellent season at Milan, would've been a nice option off the bench if nothing else. Kaka had a subpar season, then admitted to playing through injury, yet the entire team was built around him w/o a whole lot of contingency.
 
Well, I thought that was ******* abysmal. Guzan did well but that's about it. And god bless Michael Bradley for trying. We're just not good enough I'm afraid..
