I still remember when Kasey Keller was on this show saying that US Federation wasn't going to spend big on a manager while trying to defend his boy Berhalter 😂😂😂
Kasey with a K
His desperation was palpable.
Kasey with a K,Alexi Lalas and the other US SOCCER Fanboys are buttsore because 1 of their BUDDIES didnt get the job@FavreianVengeance
Berhalter 😮 😅
A good example of US soccer pedigree. Our representatives are clueless and only know to kiss up to who threatens them, except of course the fans
It's crazy to me that we are focusing so hard on "what a huge win this is for Matt Crocker". Don't forget that he was one of the primary figures within the federation who was pushing for more Gregg. The tone shift happened mainly because of the public outcry for better USMNT results.
We don't care about wins for Matt Crocker or the business within the federation..we care about wins for the US Men's National team. Period.
indeed. best case -- the ussf actually wil now focus on that.
I will give Matt Crocker the credit he deserves for this, but I agree he only swung this big because of the massive pressure from the fans. His job was on the line. But he delivered and I'm happy, not for him but for us.
This is all speculation, we don't know what was really going on, it's absurd to make conclusions like this based on incomplete info.
@@AndroidPoetryIts safe to say
Almost anybody is an upgrade from berhalter
fr
And Pochettino is a major upgrade at that. Sure he’s no Klopp or Guardiola but he’s what the US needs right now.
But having poch takes it to another level. Any coach would’ve been miles ahead of Gregg but having poch makes it light years ahead of Gregg.
Almost?
Mr potato head is more tactical than ole Greggy
Poch will be great with the US’s young squad. Also, he’ll be able to have more control rather than at his previous stops
That's likely a big part of what attracted him to the job. Apparently he made it known that he was interested even before he was approached, which is wild.
Absolutely, Poch likes young squads. I think he can improve them.
Good luck with that 😂
Jeff Carlyle wanted Cherundolo 🤡
I heard when Maurico agreed to manage the USMNT, people were crying and wanting a MLS Coach instead, clown these days man
😮
Jeff was looking at it from the perspective of the level of the coach the USMT chooses historically.
The established want more of the establishment...
of the realistic choices, cherundolo was probably the best. he certainly would've been better than berhalter. the fact we snagged poch is sorta unreal.
This is a huge signing USMNT Board 👏🏾🇺🇸😍🥳
This is a stunning move by US Soccer. I never though they had the guts to make a move like this. Okay boys lets see what you got.
I agree…There sure are a lot of negative comments about Poch but, he didn’t get those great EPL jobs for no good reason…I say wait and see…Don’t be shocked if he does well..
I guess Kassy Keller not getting his job at USSF 😂
This guy is a clown still trying to defend fraud berhalter
I don't like berhalter but he's right. Players have no excuse now. We got high profile coach. Time for them to deliver
lol. He’s not walking into a circus is a funny take.
The saying goes: If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Which doesn't apply in the case of the USMNT, because it is broke.
So the opposite of that is, WHEN THE USMNT DOESN"T WIN AS YOU PLANNED FOR THEM TO WIN, CHANGE IS NECESSARY.
I think Pochettino is a coach with pertinent experience for the USMNT.
Best case scenario we win in the Quarterfinals of World Cup 2026 and break Bruce Arena's Record.
Worst case scenario, the team learns valuable experiences from an experienced coach, and moves on with Soccer Football.
When you haven't been winning, DON'T BE SCARED OF TRYING SOMETHING NEW.
Pochettino is a Different coach, but a coach that wins, so Buckle up and Enjoy the ride Folks.
The USMNT Fan base needs to steal a page from the USWNT's Book.
Be positive and Cheer on your National team all the way to the last second of the last 90 minutes.
The Lessons will be discussed at the end not the beginning.
The USSF did a good job with the USWNT's coach.
Be positive regarding the USMNT coach.
de acuerdo, ojalá que este nuevo entrenador no convoque a ningún jugador estadounidense de origen mexicano, porque ya se ha demostrado que no sirven para nada. Entre menos latinos les irá mejor
aunque excepciones como Cardoso el resto no son mejores que los estadounidenses no latinos
@@teddyomararayacrooker2240 que comentario más ignorante. Que importa si los jugadores son de origen latino or africano or europeo? Lo que importa es que sean buenos sin importar el origen. Comentario ignorante 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
This next World Cup will be interesting. You got USMNT bringing on an experienced club coach in Europe, Mexico bringing on one of their greats who was coaching Barca Bs team and Canada having played a solid performance at the Copa America.
@@aidenroqz este comentario y me refiero al mío no es un mal comentario. Es un comentario realista basado en los resultados que han obtenido los jugadores estadounidenses dirigen mexicano cuáles son los latinos más destacado de la selección estadounidense? Top Ramos y MARCELO Balboa y ambos no son de origen mexicano. Son uruguayos además de Fernando Clavijo así es que: a los datos me remito datos matan relatos, los mexicanos son malos formen se donde se formen pasó con MARCELO Flores, los hermanos Dos santos Carlos vela que no tuvieron formación mexicana y eran tan malos como los mexicanos. Esa es la realidad no es discriminativo ni racist es de calidad de jugadores nada más
@@teddyomararayacrooker2240Your comments don't make much sense. You contradicted yourself by making exceptions, proving that it's just a skill thing and not an ethnicity thing.
There have been good Mexican players before.
Jeff C. is the most untrusted person for USMNT soccer fans and everything he says should be taken that way.
USSF will give him total control. Every player will play afraid. Expect the USMNT to score more; they will press a lot in the final third. There's a good chance he'll play 4-4-2 with duel striker and duel 6's form that includes Sargent and Balo as well as Cardosa/Musah and Adams. Weah may play an 8 type position - where he is box to box, especially if McKinney continues to be out of shape... With that said, I don't know how he solves the center-back! situation or goalie (Turner may not be the solution).
The USMNT will be really good and interesting.
si no está McKinney, podría jugar McLean es bastante bueno y mucho más técnico
El otro jugador que me gusta bastante y no sé por qué no lo han convocado ya a la selección adulta es Daniel Edelmann, que para mi gusto es mucho mejor que Tyler Adams, lo mismo que Tanner Tessmann
No. I expect the USSF to give Pochettino marginal control to start and then the suits at the top, as they always do, will meddle with the team and it will get him pissed off and he quits in frustration. The USSF brass can't help itself but meddle in team affairs and undercut the men's side. This team has no hope of going anywhere and anyone who is realistic about this sees through this signing.
Cierto. Adams es bien burro.@@teddyomararayacrooker2240
We finally have a manager where there is no need to listen to the pundits and talking heads because they know nothing compared to this man.
We have world class manager coaching the USMNT!
He will decide the tactics, he will decide the line up and us fans will all be the beneficiaries 🙏🏽
Seeing Herc excited is wierd.
Hahaha yes!
The BATIGOL shirt tho 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I hope he goes with the natural Argentinian attacking style football.
At desperate times Berhalter had three number 9s at same time playing free style soccer
He’s a top coach, but it will be interesting what style of play he adopts as he can’t play how he prefers at club level with the this team. A more pragmatic style is required, but will he want to go that way?
we hav a month 2 find out ... 🙂
I’m not sold on Hayes yet. We got lucky that we won gold in the Olympics. She didn’t use her subs the right way at all.
I think this a major step in the right direction. We finally have a serious manager.
They got an experienced quality coach. Which was needed to try to get USA ready for the world cup.
There will be no hiding place under Pochettino
He will make the players run the distance
If you are not willing to run for him
You simply won’t play for him
I think Musah will do well under Poch. Good luck Tyler Adams.
musah would be a lock starter on a mid tier serie A club. his ability to break pressure and turn upfield against multiple defenders is unreal. he'd be milan's best midfielder if his finishing in the box wasn't so poor.
Why would hiring a men's national coach affect Emma Hayes? Do women coaches in the rest of the world get paid the same as their men's national coaches? ESPN is always going to ESPN.
Normally yes. However, because our federation tries to implement “equal pay”, the USWNT surely will make a stink about this.
We all called for Crocker’s resignation/firing because we were under the impression that he was the reason Berhalter was rehired. But we’ve seen him now hire Emma Hayes and Mauricio Pochettino. Two huge names for their prospective sides of the world of soccer. I really have to think that the Berhalter rehire was the result of the other members of the federation forcing Crocker into it. I find it hard to fathom that the same man who would hire Hayes and Poch would also hire Berhalter…
Womens coaches and players doesn't make the same as the men. Probably 10 million a year for Pochettino.
Im pretty sure for the US they pay both about the same.
So pochettino has 1.5 yrs to get this squad hitting on all cylinders? Wow
It's possible
Kept my eye on Pochettino since Dawson’s Creek
Matt Crocker still needs to be fired for re-hiring Berhalter. Never forget.
but he wasnt. & he brought in Poch. soooo, maybe we jus hav 2 extend his probation 🙂
I don’t think the board let him hire someone good bc Don Garber
I look at it this way: Matt Crocker going from re-hiring Gregg Berhalter to, in just over a year, his next two hires being Emma Hayes and Mauricio Pochettino makes me think that perhaps he wasn't the one who made the Berhalter decision
bless up Yaadie
Thank god we blew it in Copa America. Thank you Weah for the card. If we had advanced we would have kept Berhalter which would have been horrible going into World Cup.
Style? I just hope they can complete a single pass….
Put Keller in the spotlight on this ... if you can find him.
I don’t know that we have the quality to play the Ponch style. The USMNT could have run their butts off for Klopp.
We may actually play some football now. Hopefully we can work with a 4-3-3 or something fluid instead of the dated 4-4-2 bus parking of previous failures.
We've played a 4-3-3 for years
The guy said this was so tight lipped. Haha you fool lmao
Let’s go USA 🇺🇸
The comparisons Herc makes of the US to teams, like Argentina and France, are silly. Poch just needs to improve the team. Making Quarterfinals of the World Cup would be great. He overachieved with Spurs. It's not as though he had been working with Real Madrid-level talent.
Quarter finals will be the bare minimum
AT LAST a SOUTH AMERICAN COACH THAT WILL see ALL the stuff in the USMNT...is up to the PLAYERS NOW...i wanna see HUNGRY, be smart in the pitch, a go getter, hustling, TOUCH AND PASS , ATTACKS FROM ALL OVER , dont play around in the box area , KILL in the enemys box...we wanna see something so, is UP TO THE PLAYERS TO UP THEIR GAME AND HOPEFULLY THEY DO THAT WITH THE HELP OF MAURICIO ARRIVAL AND LETS START COOKIN
I don't really agree that "its a talented squad". I mean, if Pulisic is our best player, we're not very good. We need 6-8 players as good as Pulisic or better. Maybe a good coach will develop the program over a few years. I need to see a wave of youth knocking on the door to make the American National team.
you have a skewed, unbalanced idea of what 'good' means.
Lennard maloney breaks in under pochettino
Real football fans are shocked lol. I figured they would hire the Yankees hitting coach.
U.S. needs a coach, not a Friend!
It's as if they don't watch football. Lol It's funny listening to them trying to really hype him up
This is gonna sound funny. Look usa culture is american football culture. So what will fit usa team is something more like ditect football dont know if an argentinian coach is a good fit.
Us soccer > English football
Agree
Porch needs to replace the goalie. Matt can't play with his feet.
He's not a pragmatic coach and USMNT has not the talent that requires his bielsista style. He is a guarantee failure with this team.
Never ever before in the History of Soccer Football, have Players influenced the Style of Play although they could. It's always other influencers especially the COACH.
Teams what were made of Excellent players but didn't have a good Coach, they simple lost a game in the early stages maybe the first game, and so you never saw them play, you don't know.
But Good Coaches (not the bad ones, which there are of them plenty) they can make of ordinary players a good team that wins championships, and you have see many of these.
When the Coach succeeds and the Team Wins, all the wannabe analysts start to talk about how great that or this player is. They simply act the fantasy of being a Coach, but the truth is they don't know sh!t about Soccer/football.
Always be careful of those who pretend, Tom Cruise is not really really really Ethan Hunt, the same way the wannabe Coaches may convince you that those players were born the greatest, it's God or their Moms who Coached them since infancy, not the Club Coaches and the National Team Coaches. Just like a Coach can't win without 11 players no matter how great he is, the same thing for 11 players they can't win a title without a good coach.
A Team can win a championship with a Great Coach and 11 ordinary players, it's happened before. But 11 Great Players can't win a championship without a Good Coach.
It is what it is, soccer is NOT Tennis or Gymnastics or Wresling.
But Soccer can borrow good applicable ideas from other sports disciplines.
Is not having sh*t MLS players in the selection a style?
Johnson Donna Brown Ronald Harris Helen
Brown Frank Harris Larry Hall Anthony
Alot if the US squad don't start fir there club's! He cant buy players.
Walker Sandra Johnson Nancy Harris Betty
Bad decision!
The same coach that couldn’t win the league with Neymar mbappe and messi…..
Messi is done and it's showing more with him playing in mls each game. He was done when he left barça
@@soccerdude601Also made a UCL final with tottenham sooooo
What style? The losing style
GROUPETINNO 🇺🇲
Hasn't this coach failed everywhere he goes?
Nope! He way over achieves w Tottenham. Won at Southampton and PSG. Took over Chelsea at 12 spot in PL got them to 6. He’s good at developing young players
@@matthewstandefer2771 Foreign coaches don't automatically mean success.....Klinsmann ring a bell?
@@MrNitro071Who said they did.
Lets start immediately recruiting players from the European academies to become American citizens.
“Talented squad???” Who?? USMT?? Ah…hmmm.
Right, because young talents in european football academies are dreaming of playing in the US 😂😂
Dump Herc and Seb....we all gave them a chance. They just dont have it for TV. Maybe calling games? But no one really seems to care what they think in this format. Too arrigant... Nice try but....no go.
Hercules has had a lot of great points in the past, what's wrong with him? I would rather listen to him than those other dudes on ESPN FC
😂 leave, no one tells you to watch. Not everyone shares your opinion, it is a subjective case.
Nah, Herc & Seb have been better than the other ESPN guys on the USMNT for the past two years. They call it like they see it, rather than currying favor with the federation.
Forever ill say F Jurgan Flopp
You're just mad Klopp decided to take his much needed break. Why would he want to coach a N.T with no football culture and corny fans
@@dave_mate4244Corny? Every fanbase has corny fans
@@dave_mate4244Because he could be a part of creating a culture in the United States where the sport is growing extremely fast - and because rich people want to live in the United States.
@@calmandprosperousYe but US has much more and is more known for it.
Didnt he decide to just retire in general? What do you want from him lol
Coach isn't the players and your players suck
Very True.
Whoever hired this guy… is high himself. Couldn’t win CL with Messi on your team? Forget it with the World Cup I’m sorry boss
Messi has not won a Champions League for 10 years and was certainly not going to do that at the end of his career at PSG. PSG a club that has NEVER won a Champions League trophy.
The problem for the USMNT is the players are just not good enough.
Let’s play spot the L Tri fan
@@logirex so you think the quality of players at psg like Neymar and nvm u right, no way tino or anyone wouldve done it with that psg
@@gepvpr You think winning a Champions League is easy? And Messi was never comfortable with PSG and was basically past his prime at that point.
@@calmandprosperous someone’s gotta win it
I hope he is a HUGE BUST for the US team.
Mauricio Pochettino doesn't know US soccer very well.....people don't take that into account.
BIG disadvantage. Foreign coaches don't necessarily guarantee success. Kinda like when US fans were excited over Klinsmann.
