What about the bench? That's the thing...does the USMNT have depth?
what kind of question is that? We have bradley and altidore and most importantly, Trapp and Zardes.

Talking on a media zoom, Gregg Berhalter said he purposely did not call #MLS players into camp because he did not want to jeopardize their playoff possibilities.#USMNTisBack #USMNT @MLS

You know, Gregg, you're starting to grow on me. Keep it up. Some promising names as well in that roster.
it only took a worldwide Pandemic to actually field a team of his promising youngsters and play them together. Greg can take a long walk off a short cliff and the USMNT will be better off for it.
First USMNT game in 10 months.
Gio Reyna gets the start. GR7 begins.

Okay okay okay... Let's try that again.

THIS is your #USMNT Starting XI for tonight's match vs. 🏴.
Congrats to @konradjr, Yunus Musah and Gio Reyna who will make their #USMNT debuts tonight!#USMNTisBack | #WALvUSA pic.twitter.com/7Lw61LPNYF
To be fair, the conditions out there on the pitch are dreadful.

The USMNT seemed to have much better individual players than Wales but overall didn't get much out of it, which is normal for guys who have never played together. Robinson and Miazga seemed a notch below in quality compared to their teammates. Dest had a very Brazilian flair, very unlike what we usually see in the USMNT. As to the surprise names Johnny Cardoso looked pretty good, and Musah looked amazing but he has 3 other suitors so let's not get our hopes up.
Chemistry was lacking. No number 9.
Wonder if Berhalter will loosen the reigns on these kids.
Style of play look rigid and self conscious. Appreciate that the team can actually hold possession and build out of the back but the best flashes tonight were due to athletic ability. Not a 50 pass tear down of a defense.
Let the boys run. Let them be creative. Don’t be so precious about it.

Did anyone try to watch today's game against Panama on Fox streaming? I wanted to multitask while working but could not get the game to play. I had to put it on the TV in the next room which makes me much less efficient at both. On Chrome, Fox would let me watch almost anything but this game. Every time I clicked on it, it just switched to the Colin Cowhead show. On Safari and Firefox, none of the shows or games would load.
ETA: That was a fun USMNT game, for a refreshing change.
