Could Jesse Marsch have led the USMNT better than Gregg Berhalter?! | Morning Footy | Golazo America 

Spongebob could have led us better than greg

I'm sorry but that's a stupid question about Marsch. The USSF needs to get serious about our next manager, and questions about a coach that literally *just took another job* don't help.

A golden generation usually wins something...Just saying..

One thing i do know from watching Jesse coach. He would have never bunkered against Panama like Berhalter did at halftime. Jesse may not be the best tactician, but he understands that giving up on scoring isn't the answer when you need a result.

IN JESSE WE TRUST ! 🇨🇦⚽️🍻

For the life of me, I don't know why we have to push USMNT players to play in Europe and NOT THE COACHES. These coaches are out of their depth on all levels.

From Canada: You can't have Jesse Marsch, HE'S OURS! MUAHAHAHAHA!!! 😁

Jesse Marsch would've done better.

The problem is there is youth talent in the USA, but only the privileged kids come forward.

Whatever would have made Weah not get an 18th minute red card would have really helped the US.

Fire Gregg

What do we want in a coach? We want a guy who wants to destroy the opposing team and can put a game plan together to do so. We also need a guy who can adjust on the fly. Greg is a nice man. The team has taken that character on.

If someone doesn't realize Jesse Marsch is better than Berhalter, stop listening to them. They don't know what they are talking about.

Gregg is their buddy... Not their manager. Fire him already

Mr. Marsch so far is getting a lot out of Team Canada.

My neighbor has a 17 y.o son that still poops his pants . The USMNT is that level of embarassment.

WE ALL LOVE TONY!

I’m from Toronto. Love Canada soccer. It baffles me that the U.S lost to Panama. They are awful

Being in camp with the USMNT should be a competition, not a vacation. Seems like the guys treat it more like a vacation.

Why did a comprehensive review and those evaluation tests just to hire the same guy

HAHAHA I do like that the pundit is fired up about GGG's corporate bullsh!t, a direct link to all of GGG's boasts of going to executive leadership conferences, speaking in them, etc. It's absolutely absurd. lol. And Tony at 10:45 makes the USSF sound exactly like a corrupt police department saying: "We investigated ourselves and found no signs of wrong-doing." 🤣🤣

Its crazy to think they played better without Berhalter when they didnt have a coach for months and worse since he came back

Im glad that the mainstream narrative has changed around Berhalter, but I hate that this is what it took for that to happen.

Yes. But, Pulisic and the US soccer federation really love Gregg Berhalter. All of them should come out and apologize to the team

My takeaway form this tournament. Scally is a beast.

OMG. The USMNT is at best a top 20 team, nothing more. The problem is your expectations. Top 20 teams will regularly lose against other top 20 teams, and they will tie or lose against top 50 teams once in a while. Panama is a top 50 team and they had a man advantage. A top 20 team will likely tie or lose against a top 50 team if a man short. Delusional to think otherwise. Sure you want to be a top 10 team, but wishing for something doesn't make it so.

It starts at the top, if the US federation expectation from a manager are not to take the team to at least a quarter final, and knowing if they don't they will be fired, then we won't make progress.

One correction: Argentina dt Scaloni was a former Argentina national team player. We knew him . We did not know him as manager. We lster knew , at least me , that he was assistant of the former manager. So he wasn't a total unfamiliar face , nor an unknown person.

Seemed like our players don't understand the reason why teams like Uruguay counter attack so fast. If you hold the ball in the open field you get taken out. You dribble in the other teams penalty box because they can't foul you. We held the ball too long a lot and those teams are well schooled in shutting down space while one guy dribbles. As cynical as it is defensively, you get stuck in and if you don't get the ball then get the man. That's how the Americas have always played.

I've been following football pundits on RU-vid covering Copa America in both English and Spanish, and there's a consensus that the United States of America should not be hosting the tournament. Our friends south of the border are feeling anger and resentment because the USA, with lots of American dollars, is hosting the CA tournament. The display of animosity was apparent when, at the end of the game, Christian Pulisic, the captain of the American team, attempted to shake hands with the South American officials. However, they refused to shake his hand. This act was seen as despicable and disrespectful to the USA, which had graciously agreed to host the tournament after Ecudaro said they couldn't host. As a result of this hater, the USMNT players were punished by our friends from south of the border.

Players should be worried about losing their spot in the USNMT. But if you dont have players fighting for those spots, they become complacent. Depth is needed in the roster. You basically need 3 teams: the starters, the bench, and the guys that couldnt make the team but have the quality to be in it. Competition.

Did someone just call Southgate a “gem”? 😂

Jesse Marsch just took a worse squad than the USMNT past a better group with world cup winner Argentina and with Peru and Chile who are both higher ranked than Panama and Bolivia 🤦‍♂He also did that with barely any time or preparation. The difference is he coached at a high level in Europe in top 5 leagues while Berhalter could not make it in the 23rd best European league in Sweden 🤷‍♂ Could he have done better what a bleeping stupid question.. obviously he could have done better.

#1 criteria... No MLS players in our rosters! Unless they are rookies.

Captain Crunch, Colonel Sanders... heck even General Tso if you want a foreigner would have been better leaders! You don't have to rule with 'fear', but you better make sure there's respect and it's clear what's at stake including the players' spot. All these guys saying how much they "love" GGG... They're all guys that are rubber stamped in the lineup when healthy. Not saying they're bad but there isn't an edge.

Fire GGG.

Seeing Canada reach the semi’s can’t be fun for US fans who for some reason think they should be there despite doing nothing to justify it. They simply didn’t perform when it mattered. CONMEBOL is a lot tougher than CONCACAF and there are few easy games, but they should have beaten Panama, a team they’re used to playing on a regular basis.

Canada plays the USMNT in September in a friendly. Should be interesting if Gregg hasn't been fired.

Short answer: Yes Long answer: Duh

with the World Cup coming to the states in 2026 it would be a good time start a clean slate in a coach...the signs are clear

Canada with Jesse Marsch is fools gold.

and then Canada bodies another National team .. Bring on 26 World Cup .. Les Rouges

In my opinion the USSF will not make the hard decision to fire Berhalter. If they were he would have been fired. He should not have been rehired.

BJ Callahan

From what I saw the problem is in conditioning.The poor execution at the end is because the players were too tired when they reached the opposite goal and to tired to ball hit the ball hard enough or make the right decision.Because they are out of breath , they are out of shape.

The USMNT could hire Pellegrino Matarazzo. He has experience coaching in the Bundesliga and he is an American.

a lot of hate for usmnt. its Uruguay is a top tier team that always competes brazil and argentina. what more do you expect

They should hire Ted Lasso!!! lol He'd do better than Greg B at this point..

The US isn’t getting Klopp and they need to stop getting fans hopes up as they’ll feel deflated if they get some unknown guy, but there are plenty of decent coaches out there who will be an improvement on what they currently have. Someone like Moyes or Rogers would be a good shout if available and they wouldn’t completely blow the budget. One thing people are ignoring when mentioning guys like Klopp is they’d have to pay the womens coach exactly the same and thats not happening.

There's no point if asking if some other guy could've led them better. The US didn't hire him, he isn't the coach, and the USMNT is out, so there's no opportunity for them to improve their chances in Copa America 2024. Either Berhalter isn't the answer, these players aren't the answer, or US fans expectations are not proportionate to the team's level.

i don't think it's about the coaching... Canada simply has a better roster than the US team.

ISN'T JESSIE'S COACHING CANADA 😂😂😂😂😂 THESE MANs 🤦‍♂️...

Herv Renard would be a realistic option.

Maybe Uruguay just has a better team.

It's not just get Gregg out it. It's a fundemental shift in the thinking at US Soccer. this World Cup is too important to the growth of the game in this country and it is not the time be timid. it's time to be bold and go for it. our players are good, but indisciplined, poorly utilized and too comfortable being mediocre. We need to be bold and bring in a winner

Soccer imagine important than knowledge.

Yes

Time for US to has new coach

Could Marsch have done better? Hell he could NOT have done worse!

Tony is right

Why is the USSF still allowed to even make these decisions....they aren't serious....whole thing needs an overhaul

This team took on the personality of their coach Gregg BUMholder which is weak and feeble

I think Titi Henry would be a great USMNT manager and he would put together a great staff.

I do not think Chavi Alonso could take USA and the man who said that soccer it is not complex does not know anything about football not soccer, mate USA is so far to understand the football world

We are Belgium; however, with far less talent.

USSF just gave GB the keys to the city!

Miola is another one of these guys that doesnt hold Gregg to the fire. Just simply say it let Gregg go. He wants to say it without saying it. Smh

Yes and yes Allstate Anheuser-Busch AT&T Chipotle Coca-Cola Deloitte Nike TRULY Hard Seltzer Visa Volkswagen boycott the USA sponsorship. We need a change now.

Spanish, German, and Italian coaches are much better than those from other countries.

Anyone is better than greg, except Jesse.

Ain't no way he called Southgate a gem lmao

9:49 did this man call Southgate a gem? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Chuck wagon was all onboard with getting rid of GGG now. But we remember his role in announcing GGG's return at the beginning of a game and he was a total paid hack cheerleader.

USMNT has no identity. They have no playstyle, no cohesion. They need structure, discipline. Im from Europe, and its night and day the playstyle I see over here and the US playing in the Copa America. Their players leave massive gaps, their midfield is nonexistent, their structure falls apart on both offense and defense, they have no creativity. It’s a mess, they have tons of talented players, so the blame is most likely on the coach. But maybe its the structure of soccer in the US. There is no one playstyle in this country, so its just a bunch of individuals playing in different systems across Europe that come together for the national team and have no idea how to play together. US federation needs to monopolize youth soccer in this country and develop an American playstyle that would lead to cohesion.

The players are all out of shape shape because of the clot shots they took

We need Zlatan to coach us

Yes, next .. oh there is no next

LMAO making Pep Guardiola or Jurgen Klopp take a test, USSF is a joke.

Switch managers NOW

Gregg out 😡 Ole at the wheels 🙏🇺🇸

Say what you want about the USMNT and Berhalter, but the bottom line is, when you compare the Copa to the Euros; Copa America is barely watchable! It's been like watching the WWE! The constant falling down all over the pitch and dirty play has been abysmal! The tournament organizers need to reevaluate the play in this tournament. It's terrible!

Its easy to blame the coach...but the reality is that those players have no chemistry together...they seem uninterested (apathy)....running hard but without direction....they seem disjointed playing together. With all the time these young men spend playing apart in their respective clubs and together one would think there would be carry over discipline in the basics of the game. When a team is unpredictable like this team, it is because they lack discipline. So, Is that the coach's fault? Or is that the players? My gut feeling is that no coach can fix this lack of heart from the players....so when the decide on a coaching change, they also need to seek new players also and see where their heart is.

Have you all seen the people that are on our Federation board of directors? It’s legit a corporation it’s a joke. No Soccer people are on that board lol

Not once did this group identify the problems and issues of every player. I would say, nepotism got in the way of selecting these players from an early age. Throw it all away. This is the way.

All that money us puts in in US soccer and you guys couldn't even get out of the weak bracket😂😂😂

If I hear Golden Generation one more damn time 🤬

Let’s face it! On the international scene, USNMT mediocre at best! Sadly!

Do NOT go with an MLS coach!!

If Berhalter had any integrity *at all* he'd resign. If he gaveashite about the players *at all* he'd resign. If he had any self awareness *whatsoever* ... he'd resign.

A proven one is klop

NO.....He is no better. If you shop at Walmart, you get Walmart quality.

The players have been given participation trophies their entire lives. The current situation is no different. Calling them a golden generation before they have done anything is very current day. Clap them on the back, and tell them they are wonderful if you want to keep losing.

Hire Diego Simeone ! Nobody can win with less than this guy. IT WILL BE DIRTY,BUT HE WILL SURELY GET THE MOST OF WHAT HE HAS. That is the direction we should be heading since we never ever had talented players that can play beautiful soccer.

Could this middle school coach have led better than this high school coach? Wgaf??!!?! These damn no name buddy buddy coaches. 😂😂

Why do kids have to pay to play in the US? You’re going to consistently miss out on genuine talent because of it. This is the first thing I’d scrap if you have any hope of finding some genuine talent in the future.

Marsch plays the same system. We need Klopp.

What do US fans expect of this team? It plays in CONCACAF where your biggest rivals are Canada and a poor Mexico that consistently loses to the US. That should be embarrassing for Mexico that has a great history and some world class players over the years. Now its just mediocre.

Marsch isn't good enough. We need a coach with proven international credentials. Preferably Spanish. I'm not Spanish, I'm objective. Look at what Spanish coaches are doing now.

They are both much too arrogant considering the little either has accomplished in the context of world futbol. Marsch is probably a bit worse because he is an Ivy Leaguer

Guardiola or Mourinho. We have to take the higher step now or the rest is time wasting.
