Bradley actually played very well today. He was very disruptive to the Germans and most of his passes were good.

Contrary to what many think, he also played well against Portugal. When hemade tha bad pass that turned the ball over, there were plenty of defenders available to defendthe cross if those players had been paying attention. There were 4-5 defenders, in an area where the were no opposing players. They should have retreated to the penalty area to defend against the cross. Ther also should have been another player going after Ronaldo for a double team.

The Portugal goal was a team breakdown which would never have occurred had Bradley kept his head. He’s supposed to be the midfield general but after gifting possession in added time against Ghana that’s a mistake I wouldn’t have expected to see repeated. JMO.

The problem with Bradley is that, sadly, he doesn’t seem to make small mistakes.

Bradley lost ball after ball on bad first touches against Germany. His defense was better, but he’s killing us on possession.
