[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm excited for Trinity Rodman as well, she is great. And Macario, I want to see her out on the field more. I like Rapinoe because she is accurate still and I can't see a good replacement for her, but Morgan and Lloyd are done. Dunn has always been one of the best, so versatile. [/quote]

I do not care about Rapinoe’s non soccer stuff. I think she did a brilliant job marketing herself. The pink hair is easy to recognize from the stands and TV. Every athlete should get as much as they can when they play.  Now as for her performance on the field. In her prime she was a role player surrounded by very talented players.

She is way past her prime. Watch the players around Rapinoe. They are always covering for her. Rapinoe is out of position, turns the ball over with no pressure, is too slow, has a low work rate/does not play defense and defenders do not view her as a threat with or without the ball. Dunn has to work twice as hard to cover for her. Rapinoe should not have started on the last World Cup team. You can keep her on the bench if you like her leadership, etc. Jill Ellis bench her in the one game that was supposed to be a competitive game. The team played better without her. A forward who has more penalty goals vs goals from the field is over the hill. [/quote]
