US Men's National Team at World Cup 2014

This certainly can help: http://www.espnfc.com/fifa-world-cup/story/1913522/ghana-send-home-kevin-prince-boateng-and-sulley-muntari
Muntari is out with yellow card accumulations already, but Boateng being out might be enough to keep Ghana from winning and help our chances to advance win, lose, or draw.

Go Go USA!

 

Severe flooding in Recife right now.

 

LOL @ how the Noobs and Bandwagoners need these things to figure out GO or NO GO... hahaha

We scheduled a cross studio playtest at 11am, I sent QA a note saying earlier or cancel it.

DD

 

I wonder if the humidity and heat rising will play into the Germans not playing as well.

Meh. The USA didn't care about the SNOW!

Wouldn't this benefit the USA team? Germans would scream at heat... no?

 

I'm thinking the extreme rain lends itself to a draw. At the most, it won't be a free flowing, high scoring game.

Ghana might be falling apart at the wrong time.

 

Should probably post this one in the other thread?

It DOES benefit Portugal and hurts the USA's chances, FYI.

 

A Portugal win benefits the US.

 

Pretty sure it directly affects the USA and I'll just keep it here. Feel free to post it in the other thread if you'd like.

A Portugal win is better than a Ghana win. Portugal, if you'll remember, needs to make up a 5 goal difference on us.

 

USA might lose but they'll still get through. Don't see enough separation in the por-gha game.

 

Are we following the game in this thread or the other one?

 

SOON

 

Brad Davis starting over Bedoya and Gonzalez or Cameron...hmmm...

 

Not a fan of either change. Here's hoping Jurgen golden touch keeps working...

 

Same here, would have much rather preferred Mix if you are subbing out Bedoya.

 

Can Landon be Landfill 1 in that movie?

 

Geoff Cameron was terrible last game, and Bedoya hasn't done anything in either game. Good changes

 

Davis over Bedoya I'm ok with. Bedoya has been a non-factor in the 2 games and Davis' crossing and free kick ability helps greatly. I'm concerned about the change in the back. Yeah, Cameron lost his man and could've made the play to clear against Portugal. Otherwise, he's a better man marker than Gonzo who has a habit of getting himself stuck in no man's land...which with the German passing, can be a big problem.

 

Man. I'm at my friends house, and she doesn't have an hd box.

Thank goodness I had a Chromecast thing with me. Too bad their internet kinda sucks. But it's decent hd.

 

I know Davis is a Dynamo so he is liked on this board but I just have never been impressed with his game, much better options if you ask me.
