4-2-4? thats what i run on my fifa 08 game, works wonders

2/6/2008 8:25:24 PM

I still have the feeling Dempsey is going to be playing a withdrawn forward so its pretty much a 4-4-1-1. But who knows, maybe he's counting on his son getting forward as much as he does at Heerenveen.

Well as a RBNY fan, I am excited for Altidore to be top striker. The man is truly going to be good somewhere. Too bad it'll be in Europe.

Mexican lineup:

--------------Ochoa---------------

Castro--Marquez--Magallon--Salcido

Arce----Pavel----Torrado-----Vela

------DeNigris------Cacho-------

"Sam's Army is in the house as previously mentioned. Funny thing though is there's a huge "Don't Tread on Me" banner staged and ready to go, but it stretches 2 sections wide. SA is only in one of those... Will the banner make it up over a section full of Mexican fans?"

I love the "Don't Tread on Me" logo/slogan/campaign... I wish they would sell shirts with the logo on it

2/6/2008 8:36:25 PM

Just turned on the video of the warm-ups -- crowd is definitely pro-Mexican

2/6/2008 8:41:21 PM

^^ they wore these during a match a few years ago:





pretty hard to come by nowadays, i'd think

^ It was a Nike advertising campaign.

Then came the World Cup performance...and Nike thought the U.S. deserved to be treaded.

2/6/2008 9:23:01 PM

yeah I've seen those... I would just like a simple t-shirt with the snake logo on the front

^ it still is an advertising campaign

dempsy looks like he's been cutting himself and hanging out in coffee shops lately.

2/6/2008 9:28:45 PM

Well he does play for Fulham

2/6/2008 9:29:58 PM

what's with the fruity tight quarter length sleeve jerseys for Mexico?

and I didn't know what to think about our new jerseys before... but I hate how that line goes through the name on the back

2/6/2008 9:30:28 PM

Even 12 minutes so far. U.S. had a good chance they threw away and then Mexico had a good counter off it.

2/6/2008 9:38:56 PM

Mexico is dominating possession so far. Our touches have been off and no one is looking particularly good.

Mexico has had three decent scoring chances. Donovan just showed some nice skill.

2/6/2008 9:54:05 PM

GOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

[Edited on February 6, 2008 at 9:55 PM. Reason : great header]

2/6/2008 9:55:09 PM

Goal on crap possession. You gotta love it!

2/6/2008 9:55:12 PM

US goal against the run of playyy, 1-0 good guys

2/6/2008 9:55:20 PM

2/6/2008 10:00:36 PM

Goal from a redirected free kick for Magellon. 1-1.

2/6/2008 10:01:08 PM

great ball, but what a weak ass free kick call

Convey/Corrales have been shit all game

2/6/2008 10:01:11 PM

Dang. Excellent cross.

1-1. This is going to be a great game.

2/6/2008 10:01:15 PM

pretty much a perfect goal for mexico there, even i'll agree it was pretty

2/6/2008 10:01:32 PM

Donovan's been our best player by far... we need to figure out how to get him more touches. I'd bring off Dempsey for Adu and put Adu on the wing and Landy up top.

2/6/2008 10:02:59 PM

good save

[Edited on February 6, 2008 at 10:03 PM. Reason : god the defense is shit]

2/6/2008 10:03:01 PM

defense is not setting up well for their thru balls, one is gonna get us

He always gives that extra bit for Mexico. Maybe cause he's from California.

2/6/2008 10:04:57 PM

Tough call.

I think Dempsey will show some excellent skill at some point in this game.

2/6/2008 10:04:59 PM

beautiful

2/6/2008 10:05:24 PM
