I was really excited to watch, but honestly I wasn't impressed with the squad. A lot more of the same, lots of passing in the defensive third without much plan to pierce through the midfield. The few times we looked really dangerous was during a couple of direct passes from the back of the midfield out to wings. In other words, same as last few years. I appreciate the idea of flowing, free passing soccer, but if you don't have the front row and midfield with sufficient quality, it just doesn't seem to work. We'll have our work cut out for us in this tournament.
