So it was bugging me a bit last night about trying to sort of place/analyze  what we saw with the USMNT attack last night and it to me reminds a great deal of the German teams. Obviously we aren't full of top 50 players in the world. That said last night between the overlapping runs, the precision passing from Aronson and the finishing of Pepi it looks a lot like how Germany has been so successful. Pepi is thin but it works to his advantage in being both a target and a hard mark. It's early but he has that kind of Thomas Mueller being where he always should be thing going for him in international play.

Dest is so unique in how good he is as a creator.

Robinson reminds me of those German fullbacks who get a touch on every possession and represents a threat on nearly every single possession.

Where Pulisic and Reyna I think will be important is when you play the world powers and they are better organized to prevent the runs guys like Musah, Adams and Mckennie have torn off in Concacaf. Teams will force you out wider and not open themselves up to being so easily beaten in the midfield and also force you to be clinical with your turns and jumping on every error. Much like we have done with rarely conceding because we shut most possessions down of late avoiding many 1v1s anywhere near the 18.
