The US had a nice run, and could still be barreling forward if it weren't for their defensive blunders.

I caught the highlights and commentary after Germany blitzed England, as the braintrust on TV were talking about what's next for the US. Aside from the defensive errors, the biggest lack the US had was a big time goal scorer. Altidore has the potential of being that, and at 21, has time to develop, but guys like Dempsey, Donovan, who were so heavily depended on this tournament will be role players next time. It'll be interesting to see who emerges over the next 4 years.
