Other than injury fears I don't get why people shit on the Nations League. It's 10 times better than endless shit friendlies and qualifiers against Latvia and Andorra.

The only US player coming out of here with any credit is unsurprinsingly, Christian Pulisic, who is also bang out of form so that sums this up

Exactly. The match against Croatia will be a genuinely competitive game with something riding on the result for both sides. Normally we have to wait for WC's or euros for that.

The USA manager looks nothing like Karl Lagerfeld but for some reason whenever I look at him he just looks identical and reminds of of KL.

Maybe its because I got some Karl Lagerfeld duver covers and pillow cases and bed sheets but man the guy has a resemblance

Exactly. Look at Croatia fighting till the last minute. Players getting in fights. You'd never see that in qualifiers or friendlies. For the first time in years I don't completely dread international breaks.

I like the nations league format because in group D3 the faroe islands have 4 points. I love the fact everyone gets competitive matches.
