Soccer: USA vs. Cuba

Flip on FS1... an absolute trashing... 6-0 at the half... USA.  Could of easily been 15-0.  
 

I know... not Panthers related but US national team is making a history.  Most players are young and play in Europe so the quality of their game is amazing.  I’m pumped for the next World Cup.

This'll probably get moved, but since we're here...

As someone who most likely knows soccer waaaaaay better than I, do you really think we could make a serious push I the next WC? 

My son is really into soccer at the moment (he's 7 so who knows where he'll end up) & if we could have a good showing I might spring for a few tickets to Qatar.

US have a very young talented team.  I really think this team can be something special.  Many of the players play for big clubs so I expect big things.  The attack should be a thing of beauty to watch.

US are a borderline World Cup team. That is unacceptable by US standards. They are young and talented. However, they will need to be more consistent to get to the World Cup. Just my honest opinion. 

The US is definitely not a borderline World Cup team. That they didn’t make it last time was one of the biggest embarrassments in the history of the team. No, we aren’t actual contenders to win but we are easily a top 3 team in CONCACAF.

I wasn't big on the Berhalter hire, but you can start to see the young players beginning to gel into his system. It will be interesting to see how some of the younger guys like Weah play into things when we get to World Cup Qualifying. I'm hoping Dest decided to commit to the US, but I think he might being leaning towards the Netherlands.

    • It amuses me how Goff's name the last few years is often used to compare to subpar or underperforming QB's. Now on the surface I get it. But when you look at his numbers he's been the same QB all along. He's improved his completion % but even with the Rams he averaged 63.4. And that Super Bowl he played in they should have won honestly. If we can get a QB as good as Goff I'll be pretty damn pleased.
    • And it remains to be seen if Goff has that ability or not. Plenty of very good QB's like Goff were not able to get over those playoff humps. Matt Ryan, Kirk Cousins, etc. You can still be an upper tier QB and never get over that hurdle. McVay just thought(and hasn't been wrong yet) Goff was never going to be that guy.
    • You literally simply have to think logically for either of those guys. Smith is locked up on a deal for 2025, so we would have to trade for him or he gets cut. Neither of those scenarios are likely in the first place.  Wilson will be 37 in 2025. Why on earth would he have any interest in a situation that is far worse than he was given in Denver and wasn't able to win there? He's a guy that can drop into any ready to win franchise in the NFL and immediately elevate their chances of winning(provided they already have QB issues).  Frankly, that is either speculation that even David Newton should be embarrassed by or it shows how disconnected with reality some people in our organization are.   I do agree with him on getting a veteran QB, however. That's our best chance to keep developing our talent.
