Captain obvious comment. Of course playing against crap competition doesn’t prep you for much better competition. Even your youngest kids know that.

Jurgen is in the scrap heap of us Soccer history and the needle didn’t budge over his tenure.

JK is better than anyone we’ve had since letting him go. Tbh looking at what US Soccer has served up the past decade, we may as well have kept Bob Bradley in charge.

And yet the US couldn’t qualify for the WC out of this “crap competition.” And round and round we go. Maybe playing the US is holding El Sal back?

Hahahaha. JK sucked. We can’t make that judgement until at least one WC cycle for GB. Sorry.

No decent team is helped by facing very poor competition on the regular. It may even contribute to complacency, which might lead to playing down to the level of the crap competition and even losing, like last cycle. You seem to need to have everything spelled out for you. Every time this topic comes up, in any form.

We went to the game. Cuba was the equivalent of a bad HS soccer team. 2-3 Cuban players defect every time they come to the US..

The pace was horribly slow. With the messy touch of some of the USMNT players and rookie mistakes (passing directly to opposing team)—they would have gotten killed by an England, Spain, Germany, etc.

It was 2-0 in the first 6 minutes.

I mean Cuba is ranked #147. I would go patting ourselves on the back.

Mexico beat the same Cuba team by the same score in the last gold cup.
