Don't like them at all. I figured the navy would be darker. I tend to like v necks. I guess I'm not buying this one.

Good luck to the ticos today.

 

[amarusgear]

These are the possible away kits: I like the red one.

Pictures were taken from big soccer forum:

 

[craftsy21]

meh - they're not bad.

i was really a fan of the ones they wore this summer though, so I'm disappointed to see them switch.


Oh well - they could be worse

 

[jch3]

I figured the new unis wouldn't be so vanilla, just too plain to me.

Compare to past World Cups, and this one isn't even close to any of these.

1994

1998

2002 (GOAT)

2006

 

[amarusgear]

I like having a medium to big patch like 2006. I just want to have a consistent jersey ala Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina.

 

[downyboy]

the USA jerseys are much better than what mexico will be wearing. how i miss being sponsored by Nike.

 

[marionthebarberian]

what i would prefer for the white jersey is if the stripe was red and if they got rid of those two bars on the sleeves.

the navy colored one is the best of the three imo.

USA

Honduras

Cunningham took that one nicely on his left...horrible pass by the keep Sorensen but good for JC nonetheless

btw those 2002 jerseys are definitely my favs...i like the away ones they're wearing now too

 

[craftsy21]

1-0 against Denmark on the road ain't too bad for these backups. i really don't know what kind of squad Denmark has out there though.

 

[hugo]

1-1 now

 

[hugo]

wow usa is getting crushed 3-1

 

[jch3]

3-1 now. SMH at this defense.

Denmark is just dropping the ball over our defense into their strikers.

hejduk's old butt should not get a look at again.

Truth.

 

[jch3]

Don't know what to make of the USAs performance today.

What time do the Ticos play?

 

[marionthebarberian]

5 pm central time.

 

[krispacinla]

I like those new Uniforms, sick.

Let discuss the Concacaf teams in the WC. Usa and Mexico should go thru the second round. The question is can Honduras show up as well? They have talentedplayers so if they play up to the challenge I think they can come out second from that group.

 

[TheGift23]

I'm thinking Honduras can beat Chile and who knows...if they pull out something from the Swiss....and I know it most likely won't happen again, butthey did tie Spain in the 1982 WC...you never know...

 

[frijo sneaker]

MEXICO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[marionthebarberian]

Thats what im telling my dad, that Carlos Costly is gonna start beasting in the world cup..

If we had to play south africa, i know damn well i would not like to play in the 1st game.

yeah that games gonna be a lot harder than Mexico thinks. You have the host playing the inaugural game. They will definitely come out to play!

I remember I was at the game a few years back where South Africa beat Mexico at the HDC. They looked decent although I think that Mex squad was a B team.

 

[krispacinla]

^Your right Luis. That first game will not be easy for Mexico. Against the host? with the bafana bafana? hahaah.
