The real issue is that other than Pepe, the rest don't really do much in the way of scoring goals at the International level or the club level for that matter. Going into the cycle, I thought finding a 6 to control tempo and make the offense tick was the biggest weakness of the team. About 40% of the way through the octagon, I now believe the biggest weakness by far is finding dudes who can put shots on target and score goals. With the emergence of Musah, Aaronson and Busio and the fact that we haven't even played our most talented 6 (Reyna) at the 6, I'm optimistic about the 6.

Forward scares the crap out of me. I love Pepe, but he's not the most dynamic of athletes from what I can tell... he will score if he gets the ball in the right position, which is a LOT more than you can say for the other dudes. But he isn't going to create something out of nothing, he needs a team that can possess and feed him the ball which isn't going to happen against the Mexicos or Euro-teams of the world. Triple-g needs to watch a few epsiodes of reading rainbow and get his imagination flowing to figure out how to get some goals out of this bunch. Whether it's moving to a two striker system or playing a false 9 or seeing if we can get Haaland onto a 24 hour path to US citizenship.
