Actually Parks was injured. That was stated in the Ireland game.

boring, while i like the idea of 2 up top. We have no width - 5 in the back plus traps this is playing not to lose 6 to nil.
I like moore, robinson,MM, wish EPB was in rather than parker (although I bet he plays ok)
believe it or not I think we will make it difficult for them to play- but won't be pretty
Green will drop behind wood, i like to see green in that role but the problem again is no width out wide
This should help us see who can swim but I would have liked to see a more proactive approach.

Parks was not injured for ireland game or this game. It was a false twitter rumor last week. Twellman falsely referenced several players being injured when it wasnt actually Parks it was misstated.

Heck yeah. France didn't really fashion that many good opportunities. Young yanks acquittting hemselves well against a French team that is expectated to make the semi finals at the WC.

Thought Adams was he best field player in that half with. Parker best CB in that first half.

Not like we have the same caliber players as France right now. So of course France will dominate possession. But the young yanks made that possession difficult for France at times.

Robinson has been really good, same with McKennie, Green, Adams. Can't really complain about anyone's play.
Moore's played well - if I have criticize something it's that some of his passes have been a little sloppy, but that's minor.

Dave Sarachan is a joke
Only 1 sub because of injury. He thinks he's playing in the world cup

2 subs - Corona came on for Green in the 70th minute (your point is still valid). Sargent and Yedlin are going to come on as well.

It was what it was. Nothing new in play. Some good combination play at times, but still need more talent to come through if we are going to really challenge the top teams in 2020 and 2022.

Steffen is definitely the #1 no question about that. I see him going to Europe in the next couple years. Good shot stopping, good in the air and very good with his feet and passing out of the back.
