But yet this team needs to win.
Yeah, this is something, I don't know, we need an entire podcast devoted to this.
Your audience might get a little bit bored after our first fifth minute on.
We've always been known as, we've had good goalkeepers.
We've improved so much on the outfield aspect, but yet it's always been Tim Howard's, Brad Friedel's, Casey Keller's, guys that have gone and played at the biggest clubs.
And I always used to think,
We have so many youth sports that involve our hands, right?
Football, basketball, baseball.
And then we would peel off some of those athletes that would come and play soccer and just got thrown in goal because we had giant guys that were good with their hands.
I think what you're seeing now is almost a transition of kids who are playing soccer and choosing soccer from a young age and maybe not as specializing in soccer anymore.
And we've lost that elite goalkeeper.
We just don't have it.
Like even yesterday in the game, Mauricio Pochettino, he played two different goalkeepers.
We're 10 days from the start of the World Cup.
We played two different goalkeepers.
I think he might even play a third goalkeeper in the game against Germany coming up, which is their send-off.
Which is all to say, even at this point, he still does not know who his best goalkeeper is.
That's a problem.
In soccer, you want to look behind you and you want to have the confidence and a feeling and a keeper that can make the big save, that commands the box, that puts fear into the opponents.
And that's something we don't have.
