Manhattan Plan for US National Soccer team
When the Ghana national team blows out the US national soccer team in Nuremberg, the American public will see what a high price the country is paying in pride by entrusting the national soccer program to the NCAA. Ghana will overwhelm the American team with both skill and speed. In the end the Americans, under the Chicago Bulls style pressure of the African soccer full court press, will give into fatigue. Ghana seasoned European players, surrounded by national role-players, will force the US team into the daunting task of thinking and problem solving as the gaining press attack deep in the US zone.
The American public will be shocked by the weakness of the American players to keep up with the speed of Ghana attacking front line. The Dujkov attack plan is designed, like the old Chicago Bulls, to create mis-matches in the Americans defenses. The Ghanaian team is centered around making a quick transition from defense to attack and in the process, creating two on three or four on three. Then, the seasoned players and the core middle field play imposes its will. The speed sets up the solution in which the Americans will have to think and react to a very fast moving flow.
As the Czech team saw, Ghana keeps the pressure on the whole game. Should Ghana score first, the Americans who must win outright, will be forced to press the attack.
Lack of national depth from the inner city Black and Latino core, the Americans can not run with the fast dogs for long and will give into fatigue and mental mistakes, like they did in the Czech game.
The only solution to the America soccer crisis is a aggressive Manhattan project to develop "ghetto" soccer. America must use its most powerful talent pool in order to run with the big dogs and take its rightful place in being the leader in World soccer.
