Yeah, I keep hearing this was a B squad for the US, but I really think it was closer to a C squad. If we went back to the Nations League roster, how many of those second team / sub players were on this squad? I haven’t done the analysis.
I know this is typical of American soccer fans, but, if we’re going to do that, can we go full-on youth squad for a tournament and not pull in the aging veterans? We know what they are. They’re not developing any further. They’re fine as depth and maybe as mentors for crucial moments. But why not see what else is out there? Maybe you find a hidden gem?
