I agree. I think everyone knows one loss and you are on the verge of elimination so best to play it safe,take a tie and go for broke when you need to. No super dominant team this cup so it is there for the taking.

This whole England goal keeper gaffe is really starting to get old with me.
He screwed up but that's how goals usually get scored. Due to somebody making a mistake. England scored their goal off of poor marking in the defense but you don't see them talking about it over and over again. Green also made an excellent save against Altidore which would have caused the USA to win but he doesn't get credit for it.
If England's coach pull's Green for the rest of the tournament; I think it will be a HUGE mistake. I can understand if they pull him if he gives up an easy goal again but it isn't like England is deep with Goal Keeper talent. I am sure the constant criticism he is receiving isn't doing much for his morale and ultimately will create problems for England going forward. Get over it and move on.
If England doesn't get past this and move on, they will find themselves watching the rest of the World Cup on the tele rather than participating in the elmination rounds.
