SportingGetting married killed Dwyers drive. Just need a new midfield, throw these DPs in the trash. Zusi doesn't deserve his spot on the team or on the USMNT. You know you're shite when you can't dominate Chicago
Neuer really letting himself get beat near post Boateng
Fuuuck we are so shit today.It's time for the Aaron Ramsey winger experiment to end.

Back in October, Abby Wambach and a group of international soccer players filed a suit against FIFA and the Canadian Soccer Association claiming gender discrimination in their decision to play the 2015 Women's World Cup on artificial turf."It's a gender issue through and through," Wambach said, noting that the men's World Cup would never be played on artificial turf.In a recent interview with ESPN's Julie Foudy, Wambach stated, "There is no footballer on the planet that would prefer to play on artificial turf than natural grass."Other than the greater perceived risk of injury, the game changes when played on an artificial surface. The ball moves quicker, long balls are more apt to roll out of bounds and the flow of the game is often interrupted.Wambach also noted that the game is less physical as players are hesitant to slide on artificial turf.How much of this supposed change in the game is perception and how much is reality?...Teams that play a more direct, attacking style of play, like the United States and Canada, will be hurt most by the turf fields.Japan, on the other hand, is known for its technical, possession style of play. In the 2011 World Cup, the Japanese had the highest possession percentage (57.2 percent) and most passes per game (647.5) of any team. Because many of their passes are short, they should conceivably be helped by the change in playing surfaces.The MLS data also showed that there are more chances created and slightly more goals per game on grass surfaces than on turf. That could lead to a more defensive, less exciting product on the field in Canada.
