Oof. I don't like that appointment. Give me Nancy

The pipe dream is Guardiola.

Yes. Pay him all the monies.

Yes. That is, indeed, a pipe dream.

Something quite a bit stronger than a pipe IMO

Oh Gregg. This is not forward

At very best, arrogant

He’s certainly that. His tactical approach got us 3 total goals in 4 Qatar WC

I would hate to see this team go backwards.

RE: Oh Gregg. This is not forward

DubuMfalme

Forward? Making it to the semis would be forward. This was 2 steps backwards.

ShinobiCoug

9:43pm

Maybe he meant forward without him.

We made it to the semis of the Copa America Centenario in 2016.

If this was an image I’d assume a bad AI model created it. Forward?

Shaking hands of players wasn’t in his “Soccer Reffing for Dumbies” book

I’m pretty sure he’s still reading it. He just got to the part about yellow card

HimmerFredette

9:38pm

We did it to ourselves but the officiating was criminal and should be addressed.

Get ready for it. I'm only 30% sure that USSF even moves on GGG. Maybe won't.

In the long run, this result may be good. Gregg needs firing ASAP so we can hire

Honestly, I find myself blaming GGG a lot, but how much control does a soccer

He also doesn't control injuries and suspensions, and missing Weah and Dest hurt

He sets the culture and it’s one of comfort and weakness
