Scared he’s going to take his job? Haha Yeah, saw that but I attributed it to Gareth always thinking he's the smartest guy in the room. lamptern 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's getting to a point where he's dragging the product down. Being obnoxious and loud isn't going to get casual people to buy into your service or your sport. OneSoccer needs approachable people, not the Wheeler's of the world who think loud=good. So does Onesoccer no longer show Onesoccer Today? Is it only on Youtube?

Exactly, I wouldn't have issue if they selected any order of Borjan, Turner, or even Navas, but there's no way Ochoa deserves to be there anymore Obinna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have had no problem with Matt Turner getting the nod after the US beat Mexico in both Nation's League and the Gold Cup. But Ochoa, no way. Milan is the man too.

dyslexic nam Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 I mean, it is pretty obviously wrong. We are in first place in WCQ and are the best team in the region at this particular moment in time. Yet we have 3 players in the starting 11 and Mexico somehow has 4. Then you factor in the subs and our grand total is 4, the US has 5 and Mexico has 6. That could maybe be justified if you recognize the x-factor of our coach or the heroics of our keeper - and yet somehow neither Herdman or Milan make the cut? Lol.

Sure… I guess part of the calculus here is 2021 in its entirety, so when you take goaltending into account, Milan only had one great window (November). He was really good in the first one (Honduras game in particular) but he missed the next one (obviously the last window doesn’t count) and didn’t play in the gold cup. I don’t think Ochoa should be there, but as others have mentioned, nations league, gold cup, etc. hurt Milan there even though he’s probably been the best out of all of them when there but fell victim similar to a player having an amazing season, on his way to an MVP award, who goes down with a knee injury halfway through the year.

Unnamed Trialist Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Since IFFHS was generous to our women I'll cut them some slack, but I agree there is lots of random in there. Like Héctor Herrera, he's a sub for At Madrid and rarely shines (last night notwithstanding, he was solid but it's 2022), and has rarely been stellar for Mexico. Odd. Since we didn't qualify for Nation's League and our Gold Cup was just a semi, and our qualifying success was also 2022 (third of our points), I'm not one to care about how we're rated in function of NT play.

JamboAl Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 I also noticed that Javier Aguirre is the coach of Mexico??? Along with “Bruce” Aaronson, this list has zero credibility without even going into the merits of the players on the list. Sal333 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
