  1. If the players underachieve under the new coach, then it is a player issue. That is why you fire Berhalter yesterday. You need to know that answer. And keeping him for even one more second is counterproductive.
  2. The best I can do is a lackluster group 2nd place finish and then getting chokeslammed by the Dutch.
  3. That is much different than the stories I have been hearing from parents pre 2020 (and my own experience back in the late 90s/early 00s). Did something change? Edit: I have also been hearing recently that the MLS next academies arent even where the highest level of play is in some areas and has fallen out of favor for the ECNL.
  4. Our academies are broken and the players that get seen and developed are often the dads with the most connections and money (and those types of kids are usually bitchmade). It is a problem in most countries. But especially here.
  5. Aggies are going all in on next year's team so they can try and have a team that can beat Texas. That is the only thing they even care about. They got a shitty coach with no experience just to try and hold the roster together for a fleeting victory. Mortgaging their future for one good year. Can't wait to punk their asses anyways. Bring it on losers.
  6. We don't need him. Don't need to have the camera on dad every time we play a game. Hard pass on the sideshow.
  7. I want winners. I dont give a fuck where they are from. Winners win.
  8. Well, let's see how he does under the new coach. This will be a defining world cup for him.
  9. Would you take a prime Dempsey over Pulisic right now? I know I would.
  10. Didn't realize how many assists Landon had, damn that is crazy. Dempsey was a true leader. I think CP lacks leadership and gets whiny when the going gets tough. I guess maybe I am biased against him because I have hated our teams from 2016-2024 because they underachieve and underperform against good teams and he rarely shows up when it matters (with the exception of Iran). But his goals per Cap is actually pretty good.
  11. Pulisic is a better club player than we have ever had. He is still firmly behind Donovan and Dempsey on the international stage. Not sure why people have a hard time understanding that club and country are separate.
  12. Just give her a raise. The amount of money a successful USA men's national team would make the federation pales in comparison to the small amount of money they would lose giving the women's coach a raise.
  13. The knives are out, he is done. Time to hire a big name, money whip a great coach. Give the women's coach the same pay raise to match the guy's coach and tell her she is fired if she flames out in the first knockout round of the world cup again.
  14. Yeah because of Patterson and that he hated him because he was a shit AD.
  15. I want him fired, I have been leading the fucking charge for years now, what are you on about?
  16. Was unaware style points mattered when making your way through a series of knockout wins in the world cup. 2010 World Cup champion Spain is going to be awfully disappointed when they find out that their series of 1-0 wins in the R16, QF, SF, and F all dont count because @alincoln didn't think they won convincingly enough. It is good they are jumping on though. That is a sign that the winds are finally changing. He is done.
  17. This was so bad on so many levels. So he was trying to hype up his team that Panama just got scored on... which would make them think a draw is good enough. When they should've already been playing to win. Informing them of the score could literally only backfire.
  18. My bad that was @alincoln LOL
  19. No no, @alincoln said they were dogshit and got a lucky draw to the world cup final. You are completely wrong.
  20. Great, hope he steps it the fuck up with his new coach and proves me wrong. Not like Arena and Bradley were excellent coaches either.
  21. Makes me think you were not. That Germany team was stacked. I got up at 3 AM to watch the fucking game. Stop discounting the work that 2002 US team did as "flukey" or whatever. You are what your record says you are. They made the deepest run in USA history, they are the gold standard until someone matches/beats their mark. Period.
  22. When you are making excuses for a world cup runner up and saying that Ollie Kahn and Michael Ballack Germany were shit, you have lost the plot. Good God
  23. So you think Pulisic has great international results? Everyone anoints him the chosen one and puts him on billboards with Mbappe and Messi. But what has he really done to earn that? Not much.
