In reply to: Great decision making Weston…. posted by iudomer
about this generation? Stu, Deuce, Landon. Hey guys, you failed to qualify. There are already two players on this team who will surely end their careers above you in the "all time" rankings. There are maybe six or seven with the chance to do it. Sorry guys.
Remember when you failed to qualify at T&T? We haven't forgotten no matter how much you want to bash this current squad.
And the USA didn't qualify for lack of Dempsey trying. I won't question his work ethic.
Everyone else was dogshit.
you can make this post.
Picking fights with guys like Twellman on Twitter.
You’re talking about three guys whose commitment to the USMNT is unimpeachable.
So yeah, when arguably your best player shows up for qualification and is sent home for breaking Covid protocols a second time (for apparently banging a teammate’s sister), I suppose stuff like that could make you bitter.
They had nothing to do with Couva.
I cannot say enough nice things about him. Met him a couple times, my son attended his camp. Gracious, patient and laughed out loud when my son was taking a PK and I yelled 'don't Wondo it!'
He's clearly at a crossroads in his career. Where it goes from here is up to him.
If he wants to have a culture of responsibility and a "one nation one team" buy in from the players, he has no choice but to show one of his superstars that he is not above the team.
Like you say - it's sad. We needed Weston and he let his team and his nation down. He's a kid and we'll forgive, but this is a "grow up, son" moment for him.
... Landon may be correct.
If he doesn't get his head on straight, he might be pissing away his club career too.
...USMNT mess. I hope he doesn't have a long-term lease on his Turin apartment.
He needs a come to Jesus meeting, pronto.
