Yelling looks quality, seems to have good technique. Hopefully we made some headway with Seattle after selling them Dempsey.

Bradley is like Stallone in Escape to Victory, technically inept but makes up for it with a stupid amount of enthusiasm

Nothing winds me up more than pundits who can't get names right. You surely must be talking about them and focussing on them in between games and during play. It can't be that hard to learn their damn names. The commentators manage to do it.

Its frustrating because he's been one of the most technically adept midfielders I've ever seen play for the US.

How do you feel about getting nations names wrong?

Isn't this just a regurgitation of previous half time "entertainment".

You do know the commentators have a crib sheet with the names and numbers of the players so they can check the names of the players so they don't get it wrong? Unless your David Pleat then you always get the names wrong.

DeAndre Yedlin is a boss. Jurgen clearly believes in him and he has played well so far in the tournament. What's crazy is he's only been a professional for 18 months, which is also about how long he's been playing right back I believe. He is going to a CL starter for someone within 5 years. He's got pace for days and his positioning and technique have improved drastically over the last year. Not a bad half, though i do think we've missed beckerman.

Yedlin looks very lively.

Lets sign him off the back of 14 minutes - I've seen enough.
