Speed is the only reason why Williams is on the team. You can tell she relied on speed completely throughout her youth and never spent time developing her skills.
Her speed is incredible and it’s what’s gotten her the accolades in the NWSL. Her speed and drive help her create so many chances that it doesn’t matter so much that her on-frame shots are at a woefully low percentage. That matters far more once the level steps up in international play and you get fewer shots. The US players who are doing well are the ones who have the technical skills in addition to the speed and physicality. Horan, Dunn, Press, and Lavelle were standouts so far. Lloyd and Rapinoe not so much. Morgan was getting mugged. And I thought Ertz wasn’t as on this past week as she’s been in the past.
Agreed. Williams is fast but not while dribbling compared to Press, Lavell, & Dunn. It seems Morgan got some of her speed back and definitely a lot more aggressive compared to the Canada game. It should help once S. Mewis and T. Heath comes back. Aside from a few of the USWNT players that played in Europe, most of these players haven’t played much due to COVID.
Morgan did not get “speed” back. Brazil was a better match up for her ie the players she went against were slower. The US’s back line is shaky at best. When they face technical players who move the ball a lot of opportunities are presented. Most of the US based players just do not see that type of soccer. Canada and Brazil should have scored but choked.
And yet they still won.
+1. The same was said before the 2019 Women’s World Cup too.

Williams needs to improve her foot work but she started the last two games for multiple reasons and speed is just one. To be fair, her footwork is on par with most of the front line players. Only Press, Heath and Smith have the footwork that can compete in Europe. What Lynn Williams does have is the ability to score and create in the high press that USWNT plays. I wouldn't be surprised to see her drift into the #9 role when Heath returns. Her ability to press, distribute and score on counter attacks is above par.

She’s slowly getting back into shape. Gave birth, played in England, then she got COVID.
Morgan playing in England was a publicity stunt for Tottenham. She barely played and she was not very good when she did.
USWNT needs to wind her career down along with Purple Hair and 50 year old Carli Lloyd.
They need some more technical players to compete in the coming years.

It would be much better to put in Sophia Smith in instead of Williams. Don’t know what happened to Sonnet in the Brazilian game as she didn’t look/play the same as she previously played.

That is what it looks like. She appears to not know what to do when she gets around the goal. Like a deer in headlights. She should ride the pine until she gets confidence.

Meh . . . maybe the USWNT will be caught or should I say others will catch up. But that is not in 2021 or 2022. We will see about after that. But I really doubt it.
