Tough loss Howard was great as usual, our attack was lacking, and Fabian Johnson getting injured hampered us but Yedlin is FAST and shows potential as did Green with his free kick. Our midfield did not control the ball well. Gonzales was great in defense and never gave up.


This loss doesn't hurt me too bad, we knew we'd probably face Belgium IF we were to exit the Group of Death and they had beaten us in a fairly easy manner recently. Belgium right now remind me of Spain before they won the Euros and World Cup, they have a Golden Era of talent but they have yet to really piece it together to create a dominant side. They have all the players, all the tools, to be world beaters but have yet to reach their full potential...this match vs the US may have proven to be an acid test for them.


The US has yet (IMO) to have a "Golden Era" of talent, sure the Donovan, Johnson, Dempsey, Beasley, Howard "class" has been our best so far, but the future will get brighter for us.


Also Liverpool are supposed to buy Divock Origi and he looked pretty good although he didn't finish his chances.
