You have 6 guys on your roster that started a game in the World Cup. 5 guys that just started against the US in NL and another 3 that subbed on.  Calling Laryea and Osorio clear number 2s is a stretch. The US will be playing with their at best 9th best CB.

There is a specific need for speed at the back so either Vitoria or McGraw, but not both, would be options. Herdman has to get his lineup and tactics just right for this one.

I think Laryea is a worthy starter and do not see him as a downgrade if we were to go from Buchanan to him

While I would generally agree over the past decades we need to recognize that we have won 3 of our last 8 away games and by multiple goals no less.

I should have said that away to anyone a draw is a great result and we should never expect a win.  Obviously "best case scenario" is a win.

The way I see this going is I would love to see us give the Yanks a bit of a scare , make them earn there win , (Reality is I want Canada to win )  but most importantly I like to see The Ahmeds the Millars, and The Fraisers of this team gain some experience in big game situations  and hopefully use trhis experience in the future.  Oh BTW F--K  The  USA  and there BS home field advantage in every tournament it seems like.

Almost 40' in and CR the better team vs Mexico. So why not Canada?

Waston knocks over Martin from behind in the box and concedes a PK. MEXICO 1 CR 0

I’m here in Cincy and it’s a Guatemala home game

unreal atmosphere 

 

[trc2014]

Man McGraw and Vitoria together…they are going to get torched.  Wtf is Herdman thinking.

Gotta assume that means Bombito with another start in the midfield???

[king1010]

Cav typo. Starting and on the bench

[shorty]

Quantum Cavallini. Starts and on the bench simultaneously. Once we observe the opening kickoff, he will coalesce into one state.

Yep, this is literally maybe the worst line-up possible.

[king1010]

Herdman hates change. Maybe he knows something I don’t though. 

[jonovision]

Maybe I'm crazy, and I've missed maybe 33% of the total of all minutes, but I've liked Bombito as a midfielder. I thought he was bad when moved into the back line.
