What the hell was the US Soccer team...

doing yesterday? I've seen more organization of attack and coordination of defence in an under 10 girls match. It seems almost as if Bruce Arena has forgotten how to coach. The team clearly wasn't ready to play, they never matched the Czech's intensity, and they went into a shell after they got down in the match. If I could suggest a few changes, I'd take Demarcus Beasley off the pitch, he didn't seem to want to be there yesterday. I'd start Eddie Johnson, his speed and striking ability could be useful against the Italians. Let's put in guys who will put in the effort and are playing well now, as opposed to basing lineup choices on reputation or on who has played well for Bruce in the past. Time to get Wolff, O'Brien, Dempsey and Ching in there. Hopefully a shake up could work to get the US a result against Italy.
