What USSF NEEDS to do after Berhalter & USMNT's Copa América failure | Call It What You Want 

14:49 “Gregg is a good coach…he knows what he’s doing ” REALLLYYYYY BRUH???? Get Brian McBride out of here I can’t take his d riding for berhalter and the us federation.

Mcbride just lost all his credibility. Hes done. Get outtttahere. You’d rather side with your friend over the future of our sport.

Bring back Heath

So is everyone going to conveniently forget that GGG has been playing Gio as a #6 since the Mexico game? Are we going to forget that he played as a winger in the Uruguay game? But sure, let’s criticize him for not being a good enough #10, and keep comparing a 21 year old playing out of position to James Rodriguez. Great Analysis.

I’m sorry Brian, if Gregg was a good coach for a national team, then results would be better and the team wouldn’t have lost to Panama twice under his watch.

GGG is DONE. I agree with Charlie there is no decision to be made. He must go and the sooner the better. We have not progressed since the WC.

Good for BJ! A man with integrity. Meanwhile, sack the guy with none! Berhalter out! And while we're at it, bring back Heath and sack McBride the corporate schill 😒

I thought having Jesse on here was bad.. but damn Brian makes me want to hug a tree going 150mph

Zidane 😂 - Man barely speaks English but he'd become fluent just to yell at the players.

How could they forget Tata??? He wanted this job

I remember they interviewed Jesse Marsch not too long ago and they tried to laugh at him about our Copa America group lol how the tables turn

"We can only afford a assistant high school boys soccer coach".

McBride sounds like a youth pastor trying to get kids to sign up for youth camp! Except in this case, he's trying to convince us that Gregg is a "good" coach and he has nothing to do with the failure that is USMNT!

Every game is meaningful except for the small islands We have lost twice to Panama in the USA in the last two years Our 2022 World Cup qualifying record was 1 win 3 ties and 3 losses Lucky to be Jamaica on a last second own goal Lost to Trinidad Don’t worry about better competition until you regularly beat the teams mentioned above

I agree with Charlie. USSF needs to fire Gregg now.

Yo Conrad!!! 57 min mark… saying Gio didn’t create anything?? He created what you would expect or more considering Greg had him playing as a 6….! That’s not on Gio, it’s on Greg for not making Gio a 10 like any normal human would and should’ve chosen him to do

Brian, “Gregg is a good coach.. the problem is the team”.. Jesus Christo

Players saying they love Greg and would run through a wall for him has to be the biggest joke. Half the time they look like they're playing with absolutely 0 pressure or accountability.

Charlie you rock. 2009 Confed Cup is my favorite team ever!

This history of alternating between an American and a foreign manager is ridiculous.

That’s quite the offensive outburst by the USMNT in Copa America. 3 goals in 3 matches. You can’t stop them. You can only hope to contain them.

listening to brian is roughhhh

It's easy to measure Berhalter's time as HC. What's his record outside of the federation? Can you point to signature win vs. any team inside the world's top 10 to 15? The answer is no. That's not the only metric, but it's important. The biggest metric is how his team performs in major global tournaments. Meaning the World Cup and Copa America. His team crashed out in the Copa, and in the 2022 WC, Berhalter's team accomplished what other versions of the USMNT have already accomplished. That matters because we haven't developed into a team that routinely advances to the quarterfinals or the semifinals. It's true that our player pool is the deepest and the most talented group I've seen in my life. I've been watching this squad since the 1994 Cup. This team is filled with potential world-class talent. But the results remain the same. That falls on Berhalter because it's his tactics that drive the offense. If I'm Crocker, I'm at the very least calling every big name that is currently available. Klopp, Pochettino, etc. Just to see if there's any interest. If there's not, you look at top South American programs to see if there's any interest. But Berhalter has taken this team as far as he can, and he's plateaud.

I like Charlie Davies' idea, which no one picked up on, about Panama's Thomas Christiansen. He'd likely be affordable and clearly can get a team to punch above its weight.

5 years plus and yet to have a “signature win” with the “golden era” of a team lol it’s time for accountability with the manager and players . Time to get a manger that will motivate the squad

They don’t have to pay the coaches equally. Just the players, it would be “bad optics” if say pep or klopp were given 10 million a year while Emma Hayes only gets 1.6

Good stuff guys. Thanks

what can we expect from Matt Crocker and the USSF board? Crocker's last "extensive review and world wide search" led to nearly unanimous board approval for Gregg's rehire. this is who they are. unless they pleasantly surprise us we have got to boycott USSF, which includes boycotting USSF sponsors

Charlie there is no accountability in the ussf. MLS walks all over them. They nepo hired Gregg. Had a scandal with ggg and rehired. They keep spouting results don’t matter. This is everyone gets a trophy at its best. There’s no chance Gregg gets fired unless the heads of ussf go too. I think it’s time for a fresh start. Their style of play that’s going through all levels of play and with the women doesn’t work!!

Get GGG out now! Today or yesterday!

Has he been fired yet? What's the hold up?

The players have been getting somewhat of a free pass. They need some heat too. Some of them wanted Berhalter too! This is what it turned into.

Greg has had years to get us going offensively and hasn’t and Brian thinks he can still figure it out… it’s delusional thank god he’s not making decisions anymore but people thinking just like him are

Why aren't they discussing why Gregg and his team keep picking players that aren't playing for their teams plus aren't inform? Matt Turner is not the best keeper the US has to offer and neither is Horvath. If you aren't performing at a high level every game for your club team then how do you expect the same player will performing for country? Gregg needs to go and hire a manager that has the pedigree and the balls to shake up the team coz they have become complacent.

Give Klopp a billion if needed

Herve Renard is the answer

I keep seeing and hearing that the self-imposed salary cap for the next manager is what Emma Hayes is paid ($1.6M) unless they can pull off some kind of stealth deal that can get around that and still appear equal enough on the surface to keep everyone happy (good luck with that).

I disagree about Scally... he was going up and down the right side, tried to take people on 1v1 a few times, and was constantly trying to help in the attack... He's not Dest, but y'all are acting like he was a traffic cone.

How about Mexicos Miguel "Piojo" Herrera? He's super passionate, charismatic and strict.

Brian “Shill” McBride

Dude, Brian Mcbride is absolutely delusional. Jesus christ

Gregg is a dedicated coach, Not a good coach there's a difference McBride

Hugo Perez

According to sports writer Doug Mcintyre, there is no connection between the men's and women's coaches salaries.

Thank you McBride. First time I agree with him. Make the coaching change now!

it is so awkward having McBride on when before the Copa he was all over the media saying Greg was the best coach for the Usmnt

I like how yall say "we're not going to be tested in the Gold Cup next year" yet recently we've lost to Panama twice, Trinidad & Tobago, and we needed an injury-time own-goal to beat Jamaica recently. This team is now back at the level where its true competition are the CONCACAF minnows they thought they left behind.

Zidane want only coach France after Deschamps

Renard isn't a bad idea. The guy is a really good knockout tourney international coach, who has like two Afcon titles with two different countries.

It’s a terrible take for Brian to say that they shouldn’t look at Kochen because other guys have been there longer. This ain’t the post office. Put the guy in you think will help you. Period. The USMNT is playing other players that aren’t playing with their clubs on a regular basis. Or who aren’t playing at all. Including goalkeeper. Is Kochen better or not? Then play him. “Sorry, we aren’t playing Michael Jordan because Quintin Dailey has been here and it’s his time.”

Nico Kovacs, ex-Manager Croatia, Frankfurt, Munich, Wolfsburg, Monaco….and he is free 😊

This whole tourney and the run in we’re absolute failures and that just further underlined why the USSF deserves all the blame for where we are at. Giving the keys back to Gregg after such a mediocre period as manager is shameful.

Why isn’t anyone talking about the caveat that means whatever you pay the mens coach you have to pay the womens? Its why the US isn’t or can’t attract a top tier coach. Moyes is a good shout tbf. Far more realistic and would probably fit within the budget. He’s a good coach with a lot of experience.

Jurgen!!!!

does mcbride ever say anything remotely interesting?

glad to have jimmy back. with such a heavy time as of recent, its good to have the lightness he brings

McBride saying "Gregg does know what he's doing and he's a great coach," should automatically disqualify him from ever appearing on your show again. The reason we are where we are is because of Gregg and US Soccer shills like McBride.

Yo Brian. Please listen to me. Or jimmy and Charlie but they see ggg for what he is. You can’t say he is a good coach because he works hard. Let me give you an example. I could work really hard at being a chef and come up with all these ideas of potential marinades and spices, but I leave the marinade out it will go bad, or if I preheat the oven 50 degrees lower it wont taste right, or I leave the chicken in two long bc I’m too busy telling my chicken the score of the other food I’m cooking is 1-1!!!!!!!! Let’s be real here. What is happening to the United States of America’s head men’s soccer coach postion. The women’s team went out and hired the best coach in the world after they fired a coach who it was time to move on from. And that coach was terrific for a good period of time. Stop saying he’s good. It’s ok if we made a mistake, and by we I mean ussf. Let’s please move on and get off of this weird place where people who understand what they’re watching and realize Gregg isn’t great at it are being convinced we should think he’s done a good with the tools at his disposal.

We need a new coach so we can stop worrying and start working.

Gio needs to stop coming to be a 6.

Brian Schmetzer

US fans... you may not like this... but I really do believe it could be... Peter Vermes. Hey - not saying I agree with it. I definitely would NOT agree with it. Vermes is the guy that lambasted the expectation for players to do a little work to be stronger for the next season. But that fits the USSF, it fits MLS and it fits with how it seems it's important the the players "like" the coach.

Charlie the MVP once again.

Greg’s managed approximately 20 games vs top 50 teams since coming back in 2023; he has not won one game excluding vs Mexico.

If Crocker rehired Berhalter because he thought he was the best option available, or anyone else at USSF, they should be shown the door as well. Anyone at USSF that narrowed the coaching search because they’re setting the pay level based off womens managers salary, axed. If we’re shafting the mens team of a competent manager to virtue signal, then the people making that decision aren’t qualified to be running a lemonade stand.

They aren't going to do anything. USSF wants a stooge not a coach. Derphalter will be in the technical area for the three games we'll play in the '26 WC.

You can't win a tournement with our player pool, playing outright attacking especially with the state of our CBs being so bad. Chris Richards is athletic but tactically does not yet understand when to step up or vacate his position. with an old Tim Ream as the anchor and 2 WB who are looking up field all the time we are at tremendous risk for bad goals. it would be wise to start scally and get more defense out of the right side.

You don't mention this, but hear me out! Pep still has a house in New York. He *loves* the US and has mentioned retiring here more than once. His kids are in school here. He has indeed made some very nice comments about US players; our mentality, footballing intelligence, and yes... talent. As for his current job - Manchechashity are soon to be held accountable for a decade of lying and cheating. Pep has *already* talked about leaving. Even if he stayed there until January, he'd still have enough time. Emma Hayes was hired months before she actually came over. And yes... It *is* about $$$$ though. Why did Americans buy more tickets to the Euros than Copa America? Why are there always more fans for the "visitors" than for the USMNT when we're *at home?* Puli sells more #11 Milan shirts than #10 usmnt shirts by several orders of magnitude. Why? Because Americans love winners, meh losers, and absolutely will not tolerate being humiliated. Yet footie is the fastest growing sport in the US. European teams cue up to play here in summer tours. Several euro leagues are proposing official matches being played here. US media spend boatloads of money to broadcast the top 5 euro leagues. Why? Because it's worth money. *Lots and lots* of money. The USSF has lost millions because of their toxic propping up of Berhalter. Worse, it's throwing away hundreds of millions if they continue. Seriously, they could pay Pep double what he asks *and match that* for Emma Hayes and pretty much immediately sell out every USMNT match for the foreseeable future just from the announcement. Or Klopp. They wouldn't be able to keep jerseys on shelves. No. I won't watch another match under Berhalter. But I'm not alone 😑

Hasnt played in the 10 spot since Jamaica.

Preach it Charlie! YES, too many stumbles and failures. You move on! You look to WC 2026. Yes Charlie call Jimmy Gregg. LOL

No love or shout out to Barra 76? Damn.

Brian with the hawk tuah special

After the WC they should go for Pep Guardiola on a long term project

Coach option - Pellegrino Matarazzo?

I would cry with joy if we got Jurgen Klopp!

Since we had so many players play so little with this early exit how about playing them in the Olympics.

I hear Bill Belichick is available.

Zidane won 3 straight Champions Leagues, and he wouldn't be a good coach for the US?

We need the Chosen One

Is thay a Gio problem or Berhalter problem?

USSF NEEDS TO FIRE GREGG BERHALTER NOW, Maybe they could go and try to hire Dennis Bergkamp.

They offered Zidane a job before GGG rehire but he rejected the offer

If Klopp took over the US would be a different team in a good way!!!!

For the last 6 years, the bar was set at mediocrity. Outside of Ggg's few "signature wins," in concacaf (and signature draw with england), it's hard to point at any stretch of his tenure that the us ever attained even mediocre status. At least we beat mexico, right?

If they have to do an MLS coach - Wilfred Nancy

Go ahead keep the same coach ans see what happens

FIRE GREGG

Uruguay has a total population of about 3 and a half million. There are probably more high school and college soccer players in the US than the total population of Uruguay. Where is the talent?

Don't disrespect mcbride

Matt Turner was the weakest link on this starting roster

Fabian Hurzeler?

Brian McBride is boring! Let bring Heath back he is funny

Yes move on now! DO NOT WAIT. Get Gregg out and then you will find the right coach. We can't do much worse!

Herve Renard????

How about Ted Lasso. He did a great job in the Premiership. And he know the American mentality. Believe.

Emma Hayes is already getting paid more than any other female coach. That should be good enough. Get the right coach for the USMNT.

The system does not work. Not woth these players. Not in mls. Not in sweden. Not with ggg. 3 poor chances in a must win game. Awful. Awful against Columbia. Barely good enough against Jamaica. 2 years is more than enough time to fix this. Get him out now. Thanks.

Not an American. There are zero Americans with the chops and gravitas this team needs.

Fire Gregg

McBride is such a tool for USSF
