This game is ridiculous. It's being played on a non fifa date yet the usMNT managed to get bradley released when the canMNT has trouble getting MLS players for FIFA DATES. And the only reason Bradley got released is because SUM gets all the revenue from mex usa games in the states. AKA SUM funnels a huge portion of that money back to MLS.
Floro was right yesterday, there is such a double standard when it comes to releasing canadian players vs US players, and its BS. It's all about SUM making their money off US players. Imagine a player got seriously hurt on that temporary indoor grass field tonight.
Bradley got released cause
- Bradley is Bradley
- Bradley is the USMNT captain
- Bradley is Bradley
- We had an off week last week
- Bradley is Bradley
Bradley's going to end up playing more games for the USMNT than for TFC.
Pitch is awful. Bradley playing well. College kid scores for the US.
Bradley a great ball to start the second goal.
Bradley had a good game, but this CAM shit needs to stop. He had a good game because Mexico played their fringe player for most part.
At CAM, he's too easily marked out, because opposition DM have easier time tracking him if Bradley is too far advanced. He makes great passes but he needs that second to see the teammate and make the pass. Doesn't quite have the innate vision that all CAM possesses.
At DM he's too deep to impact the game, even if he can make that long range pass.
He needs to be a box to box guy, where he can probe the midfield for space for him to make the pass and it's a little harder for opposition to track him without losing shape.
And FU Jurgen for playing him 90mins

Could be worse - Beckerman looks like a knee issue, although he is walking after the game.
That and I would hope Bradley ain't coming back up here in between. So, a day to take a relatively short trip, and then recharge before a workout on Friday.

I like the simplified view that if Bradly is going to launch those ill fated long balls over the top, he should do it from 20 yards further back.
Watched it on Fox Sports 1. Man what a game! USA beats it's arch rival Mexico to a record of 9 victories since 2000, i guess. In my opinion, everyone on the team did a great job that resulted to Jordan Morris being able to put USA ahead of the game. With this win, USA secured the total record of 18-32-14 against Mexico. All props to Mexico's perseverance, though. Here's to more football news source that you might find useful.
