People can want to win very badly and not execute well. They are two totally separate things.

I would agree and to me it is all about the execution of the players. The international talent level is up but most people believe that the US Team has the better Talent(with the gap not as wide vs some Teams). But they had better talent in the last round but it was lack of execution.
