How are feeling? Quarter finals? Semifinals? Grouped? *Min 8:59-9:35 text display refers to Gregg Berhalter's record against NON CONCACAF Nations, as mentioned via the voiceover.
I think this team is either getting grouped or we sweep our group and make the final. All depends which GGG shows up. Just a basketball officials opinion 😅😂
Tac, apart from U.S. fixtures, you should do live streams for the following matches: *Brazil vs Colombia 7/2* You will get a lot of views if you do live watch-alongs to these matches.
I ALWAYS want the USMNT to do well. That said...we still have time before the WC to make a change for the better at Manager. Getting "grouped" here could facilitate that change. With GGG..we have NO SHOT at over-achieving at the WC. That's just facts. He NEEDS to go...
I mean if we get out of the group I think a win over Colombia and Brazil could be possible. I'm a first generation American by way of Colombia so I root for both but I dunno, I think that James can get exposed as he's not as fit these days.
I hit the “like” for that Fox hate. They have the rights to Copa and Euro but chose to not air half the games for the Euro. Hurting the sport for Americans.
A lot of our best players have been very successful in Germany; I think a German coach like Klinsmann would be the perfect way to see if these boys have it in them or not! ⚽️🇩🇪⚽️🇺🇸🇺🇸⚽️🇺🇸🇺🇸⚽️🇩🇪⚽️
Don’t get it his former teammates at Borrusia Dortmund are playing in big teams like Real Madrid and Man city but Gio Reina is playing at Nottingham Forest?
That's what I've been saying for months and nobody batted an eye (only in America smh), but then the season continued, and he didn't play, at Nottingham effing Forest. Logically, a talented player should be able to earn minutes over bums from a low-table team...but he barely ever did, and wasn't even great. That was a terrible look, and that matters. Reyna is on his way to becoming the disappointment of the decade after that if he doesn't bounce back at Dortmund, or worse, they give up on him and sell him to some crap team.
2007 COPA AMERICA US Soccer sent: "A" TEAM to the Gold Cup (to qualify for the 2009 Confederations Cup) "B" TEAM to Copa America and this upset CONMEBOL so much that the U.S. wasn’t invited back until the USA hosted in 2016. That said, the 2007 squad actually scored first in their Argentina match before losing 4-1, but for a few minutes, things were awkward for Argentina.
I played the game and I know the game the USMNT can win this tournament they have the talent with youth on there side now if the play with the underdog mentality they can beat anyone
Tac, let's say that the USA beats Bolivia in an uninspiring match 1-0, repeat same bland performance against Panama, 6 points secured, gets humiliated by Uruguay by a 3 goal difference, yippee advanced to the quarters, and proceeds to get spanked again by either Brazil or Colombia...does Belhalter gets sacked? Or the USSF is so F×%**ng clueless that he remains as coach, what do you think?
Will how dumb the USSF is. Even if the USA tied every single group game and got eliminated early, they'd still keep him early. Only way i see him getting sacked is getting only 1 to 0 pts in the group which is unlikely.
--> Tac, you (and Dustin) are the hardest working, most honest, channel on the USMNT circuit. New video notification = Like and watch, in that order. --> The whole CIO rant was spot-on. --> US to finish 2nd in the group and lose to Colombia again in knock-outs. Berhalter to keep his job. Sadly.
I have no shame in getting bounced by Colombia or Brazil.... I just want us to look good in the group matches. Decidedly win the games we are supposed to win and be competitive with Uruguay
For Brazilians, it depends on the context. I know quite a few times they invited their B team to these tournaments because they value the World Cup more. Nowadays, Brazil doesn't have that luxury, so we need to see their best team.
I am one of those who thought that after the last World Cup Berhalter should have been replaced. But after the Copa America, less than 2 years to prepare for the World Cup, I think it is too late. Whoever takes his place will not have the time to properly implement what he wants. USSF chose to keep him so they will be responsible for the debacle of 2026.
@@AndresFCamacho The problem is that in the national team the coach has very little time with his players. He must develops a relationship of trust, a player who just once performs poorly is not afraid of being thrown away (It's the coach who must take responsibility for failures and not blame the players), while maintaining a healthy pressure on the players. This kind of relationship can only develop during competitions.
We lose in the quarter finals with GGG sticking to terrorism and we will all question why he did not play Gio at the 10 and he'll focus to much on putting too many target less crosses in the box and try to build from the back. We will all call for him to get sacked but nothing will happen and we will repeat.
Oh my god, the contortions! BJ’s win percentage as interim manager was 57.14%, GGG win percentage is 60.5%. WITH THE SAME PLAYERS! I’m all for accountability but straight up lying about a stat because you mad at GGG is just shitty.
Can yall stop comparing 2002 USA team to 2024 USA team. The difference is that players back then wouldn't shield by academy programs. They literally had to work their ass off to go pro. The usmnt in 2024 are a bunch of white boy academy kids that been shield this hold damn time. So shield that they didn't even bring them into the MLS academy system. You really think your going to have the balls and hunger when you been shield your hole career. Guess why they made it to Europe. Usmnt Europe players were given those spots is you really know how corrupt politics works. Ac Milan agreed to have pulishich for marketing in the US not because he is this outstanding player. That's why you have players like Reyna and mckenny playing for low table teams
We got grouped in 07 cuz we sent a C team. That image with Landon wearing the pinstripe kit was in a friendly vs Ecuador where he scored a hat trick. Landon was not on that Copa America roster.
As much as i'd want the US to go out in the group phase. I think you don't know much about Bolivia. Bolivia is a really bad team. The only reason they are a hard to team in south america is because of their home advantage. The altitude in bolivia is their best player. Some people have to use small oxygen containers to handle the high elevation. They won't have that in this tournament. USA should beat Bolivia by a two goal margin. The game between USA and Panama will decide who advances. I'm expecting Bolivia to not get a single point in their group. I hope Panama beats USA and eliminates them early. Gregg needs to be fired.
The mindset going into this should be "nothing less than winning this thing is what a good performance looks like" but also, when we do lose, dissecting the issues that resulted in that loss and improving from there. Perfection should be the expectation, refinement should be the rule.
@TacticalManager i am jealous. Sill standing by your prediction of a semi final berth? I still think that Canadians will be wishing for the results of 2022 WC when we get trashed in the 2026WC. The federation is still in total ship.
