Best players are Rose Lavelle and Mallory Pugh. Unfortunately Jill Ellis will make them split time with lesser players. She cut a really good Crystal Dunn for a 45 year old useless Abby Wambach for no good Soccer reason last go round.

As far as Rosie and Mal are concerned...I think Mal has a long way to go. She has pace and can finish, but she is average technically and turns the ball over too much. She is still very young and think she has a chance to be a world class player, but still needs a lot of development. Rosie is better. She also has great pace and is better on the ball. She’s more versatile than Pugh, also. Doesn’t seem to finish quite as well, but the rest of her game is pretty strong. These are two of USA’s best younger players, but they aren’t close to the best players on the team, however.

Hope they lose. Sick of the entitled overly PC social justice warrior causes. Go rest of the world!

Is the best outside back, Jaelene Hinkle, on the team? Or is anti Christian bias still alive and well in US soccer?

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostI think they can pull it off this year, but it will be the last. Four years from now we might not even be in the final.
As this group ages out, I think we are in trouble internationally. The US does not have the structure and dedication to developing world class youth teams as evidenced by our recent struggles in the u17 and u20 World Cups (for girls not on the boys side).
Hope, I’m wrong, but countries like France and Spain are developing the next generation of women players in the same academies and through the same systems as their males players. The countries have a track record of developing world class players and teams. Plus, fans are attending the women’s professional games in those countries, so their is a financial incentive to develop talent. They have more fans at women’s side games then all but a few of our MLS teams have attend their games.
