We don’t have a true #9. Englands bench players would be stars on this roster. Pulisic isn’t some next level star for this team, he’s proven he’s a good player that is overrated and needs people around him to succeed, not an elevating player.
You look at other teams #9’s, they all have star guys playing overseas with double digit goals.. even look at the guy who scored canadas goal, 60 goals for his foreign club and he’s 25?? Maybe 24, can’t remember.
Our keeper was a backup for arsenal… this team has nothing exciting going for it tbh.

While I do think the USA has gaps. Pulisic, Robinson, and a load of others are playing in the premier or second division leagues in Europe (English, Italy, France, Germany)
My favorite upcoming forwards are Pepi, Balogun, Haji Wright. (none available for this game). Also their best player, Antonee Robinson was also out due to injury.
This is a raw team. New coach.. they will figure it out. They have the talent to compete - I just think they need a lot more time together.
