I hope they get a big name (hopefully foreign) unless it’s Jesse marsch. I thought todays game wasn’t terrible per se. Pulisic really needs to score in first half if he’s captain America. I felt not scoring that goal was just lolz for our #1. We got nothing from Ferreira. Bummer Sargent couldn’t play bc I felt he would have helped. Hmm I almost wanna say I would rather have pepi playing vs Ferreira honestly even though he might be in bad form. Reyna….. get that kid more playing time- idk how you don’t play him in first 3 games (he may have gotten in for a few minutes in 1 game). Reyna is a top 3 us player. Gotta get that kid on the pitch. Also Aaronson gotta get on obv.

Idk the future looks semi bright for a young team. Just gotta get a better manager with smarter tactics- btw dest looked really good on o side. Not bad for a full back on the attack.

Yah, that last 4-6 years produced a ton of young talent. These guys will gain experience and hopefully the next 4 years bring an equally talented or better young group.

Huge glaring hole at the #9 though that would take a miracle to fill.

Usa was competitive against a better team. They have a super young team. Lots of reason for optimism.

Keep the insults coming. You've really demonstrated your point articulately with facts and examples.

As for the 2nd part, just smh. That's all. Go away

My wish list for a new manager is simple:

1) Play a formation that gets our XI best players on the field.

2) MLS is an unacceptable standard for players wishing to play for USMNT in 2026.

3) Find a striker from some shitty nation that will never make a World Cup and get them dual citizenship

BONUS would be someone who has a basic tactical understanding of the game and who's resume highlight is better than managing the Columbus Crew to a .500 record

Pepi's only 19 and will have 4 years playing with good clubs, still a chance there.

More than just a 9 we need an attack plan other than to just slop in goals

All good, I’d bet the over

Rumors say who might be target?

It’s a much more attractive job than it was in 2018. Imagine taking that job back then with it steeped in failure with a collection of youngsters and journeyman MLS players. So taking it from that to what we have now is a pretty good accomplishment imo

So?

They still need to defend 2nd, no system asks defenders or in fact any player to give up basics of defending.

The phase of play was such that they were both in position to stop goals especially Robinson on the second goal.

There will be a lot of narratives spun round this game but you cant win games when you gift the opposition two goals via school boy defending.

All they had to do was maintain positional awareness, a basic skill and no player should be making that kind of error at the last 16 of the WC.

I think that comes with a new manager and hopefully being healthy for games. Expecting to win Nations League and HOPEFULLY get an invite to the 24 Copa

Lol you go away, I see I’m basically the only one that engages you

Looks like everyone else appropriately ignores you and your idiotic MLS nonsense

You think Gregg took it from that?

Surely it's not the fact that we can actually field a lineup of guys playing in Europe including dudes at Chelsea, Juve, Milan and Dortmund* right? Just needed the brilliant manager to get us there

We looked completely surprised/unprepared for how Netherlands was gonna play and how they were going to attack us

Robinson was outstanding all tournament though. Just completely gassed

We could have absolutely rested against England. A draw there was absolutely useless

The 2nd half against Wales was same old Gregg

He was the manager so yes

Let me remind you those dudes from Chelsea and Dortmund were injured for around 75% of it

The guys from Juve and Barcelona were pissing on themselves in El Salvador first game in

So yeah he had to work through all of that

And it clear Berhalter knows who the best players are, given the fact that he started them exclusively in this tournament

Is this all the guidance that you require?

Even that over elaborates the failure imo.

Leave a player unmarked in the box, to the point he is able to stand unmarked in the box for several seconds with his arm up as the wing player lines up his cross = concede a goal.

If you have been caught on the counter then there is some mitigation but the phase of play had progressed beyond that, so there is simply no excuse for leaving a man totally free for that long.

Ok.

Now tell me about Berhalters tactics and how they're up to par with this level

This team didn't overachieve they underachieved. Never once did the dominate an entire game at any point against inferior opposition.

Lastly, do you personally want Gregg back for 2026?
