Yes, this is true. Peru and Bolivia are bad teams and they play real dirty. The best countries to watch are Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Chile, Colombia and Ecuador. Paraguay are ok. The rest are in a pretty low level.

Can somebody tell me why in the f.... we have Bradley playing on the field?
80% of his passes are back to the defenders
We need a midfielder than can dribble at least 1 guy and make a pass forward

Perhaps there is no one who can fill his spot? That's the only reason I can think of as to why jurgen keeps starting him. He can be brilliant at times but then he bottles it in some major games and might as well be wearing the opponents jersey. Bradley is terrible in the midfield. His passes suck.

Also, the first touch response by our forwards is abysmal. A perfect ball will reach their feet and they retain possession for a few seconds before losing the ball. They can't even perfect a run down the middle. Zardes and Wondo are the worst offenders with Dempsey and Woods being the best. Zardes would have perfect space to run with it and would stop at the box and run it back. WTH! LOL.

USA has a long way to go.

Bradley has lost his game after leaving Roma. He has made more mistakes than ever, especially losing the ball in the backfield. Without Jones, he gets beat up in midfield against good teams. Bradley is not Reyna and we don't have anyone to replace him.

IMO, Brooks, Wood and Jones are the three beasts on the team.
