[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So USMNT should blame their lack of speed for their poor performance?[/quote] Amen. Though I have to say some of their lineups have been slow relative to competition, but part of that is poor tactical awareness. In any event, speed is not really a skill unless you are running track and training properly. The question is what skills you can improve to beat people of comparable athleticism.[/quote] Speed of play is different than speed from point A to point B. Speed of play includes physical speed, but also speed of thinking/decisions and speed of playing the ball which requires impeccable first touch. The ball is played quicker. You look faster if you are thinking 2 steps ahead as well and arrive in the right place at the right team. Speed in the sense Americans think of it (end line to end line) is pointless without the other things.[/quote] Good to see you know what all Americans think. [/quote]
