Christian Pulisic stunk in his Chelsea debut and might not be ready for the bright lights

I watched the whole game. He stunk. Is he not ready for the bright lights? They came in... he came in and it was 1-0, and then Manchester United scored three goals... I'm just going to say, as someone who was ready to declare this the biggest moment in USA soccer history, yeesh.

Pulisic's debut was statistically poor, though judging his career on one substitute appearance is the joke. He eventually became a solid player for Chelsea, winning the Champions League.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is the future of American soccer at age 34

Zlatan is going to save soccer in America. He is. He's the future of American soccer. He's 34. And he's the future.

Hot TakeSoccerHotSarcastic
Zlatan was a huge success in MLS but clearly not the long-term future given his age; he returned to Europe shortly after.

Panama might beat the US Men's National Team on Friday

It would be funny if Panama, if just... God forbid. Panama wins on Friday. God forbid the U.S. men's team didn't make it into the Yogo Benito Championships next year in Russia.

PredictionSoccerHotSarcastic
The US actually beat Panama 4-0 on Friday, Oct 6, 2017. However, the larger prediction about them missing the World Cup came true when they lost to Trinidad & Tobago a few days later.
