Even we get out of group play, we likely face Columbia or Brazil.

Pots and Pans


Mate, where do you derive these cheeky insults from? Is Panama known for forging metal kitchenware? One would think that France (Le Creuset), China, or even our beloved America would be more known for this than the tiny Central American nation that our lads will be facing off against this evening.

I did some research and see that Panama does boast some copper reserves (although it appears to be an export sold rather than used for domestic manufacturing) - curious if this is why you chose the moniker you did?

quote:

Panama's manufacturing sector accounts for only 5% of GDP, but includes activities such as agribusinesses, dairy, sugar refining, apparel manufacturing, petroleum products, chemicals, paper and paper products, printing, furniture, and building.

Panama's natural resources include copper, mahogany forests, and hydropower. In 2022, Panama exported $6.62 billion, making it the 119th largest exporter in the world. The most common destinations for Panama's exports are China, Japan, South Korea, the United States, and Spain

They're probably thinking the same thing, no one should want to face this team.

I love this place.

We're in a constant state of "we're going to win every game" and "we're going to lose every game"

Definitely no in-between on this board, it’s the same group of 10-15 people trying to prove how much smarter about soccer than the other.

I think the US got momentum at the perfect time. The Brazil game seemed to light a fuse.

Hopefully the Costa Rica v. Brazil game extinguished whatever fuse of hope people lit.

Does the transitive property carry over to the beautiful game?

To quote Parcells, “you are what your record says you are”..
When we draw against Brazil, it's human nature to associate Brazil with all the great teams and players of the past. We know that's not where they are at right now.
We are not as bad as 5-1 to the Colombians, but it's realistic to think we beat Panama, lose to Uruguay, and lose first knockout game against "insert above-average Conmebol team"...
I had higher aspirations for this group of players, and I hope they prove me wrong, but I wouldn't wager my money on it.

Because “United States of F#ck Yeah vs. Agribusiness and Mahogony” doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue…

Going to my first match at Mercedes Benz tonight. Somehow haven’t made it to a United match. I’ll be in a Gullwing Club suite so something tells me it will spoil me for any future matches

We kind of got screwed with the draw tbh. Mexico’s path was a lot easier, and they were seeded apparently because they won the most recent gold cup.

We really need guys to start pushing the XI. Obviously, every team will have guys that are locked in, but in no universe should Richards be rewarded with another start after his last few matches.

Need CCV, McKenzie and the next generation to push.

I fear stagnation because of lack of internal competition.
