This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Mexico didn't light the world on fire last night, either by wcnitz
Ochoa saved their asses.
I think our issues at the back are mostly coordination/communication. That, and I don't expect us to have the same possession rate against Mexico as we did against Honduras. So we won't be sitting with deep possession with John Brooks 10 yards into the attacking half like last night, I don't think.
Our biggest problem last night was the midfield movement and not getting connected to the wide players and missing connecting passes. Good things happen when Reyna and Pulisic get the ball at their feet - didn't happen anywhere near often enough.
