+1 Chief. People freak out about the US possibly missing the World Cup, which would require finishing behind said Panama team in the hex, then we play electric offensive football in the first half of a must win game and look better than we have in months, and it's "why are you so excited about beating Panama?"
PS I'd take that Panama D over ours at this point. Villafana & Omar Gonzalez can not be starters at this level.

It's pretty close with Landon Donovan (who was named Best Young Player at the World Cup and led the US to the semifinals when he was 20), but Pulisic is certainly much more accomplished at the club level, and playing the Champions League/Bundesliga vs coming home to MLS should continue helping his development as long as he stays healthy.
