I've been hearing the US team is improving for the last 20 years but the fact is that's not true. USA has been around the 15ish team in the world for a good dozen years. This 2014 team was not as good as some of the past teams. The best player still plays in freaking Seattle, that should tell you all you need to know. The gap still exists and i havent heard of a crop of young prodigies that would make me think its gonna change soon.
For a country with such a large population and more registered players than countries like Spain, France, Holland, Portugal, England, the performance is actually below average, like Chest said. They need more time indeed. A lot more time.

Tim Howard doesn't play in Seattle, nuff said on that

Fuckin' A.

The team was 1-2-1 ...

That's shitty by even Sark standards.

You have no idea the damage Steve Sampson did.

I'm glad the US is out of the World Cup so you idiots with no knowledge of soccer can go back to ignoring it.

oh shit #dreckfest is trending.

i keep clicking that but its not working. staff is the site working as intended?

The US has no playmakers. Belgium has guys in the midfield and at forward that play in the top leagues in the world. They created chance after chance, blowing past defenders while dribbling. The US doesn't have one guy that can create like that, and they never have. They could have won if Wondo or whatever the fuck his name is hit the goal at the end of regulation, but Belgium destroyed the US. The US was lucky it wasn't 5-1. Until the US has a couple of top 50 players that play for the top European teams, they will never do shit.
