why are you making statements like this as if you know a single thing about soccer?


Did you atleast watch the last 2 matches the USMNT played?

He's not completely incorrect.

Klinsman was an underwhelming coach that got exposed time and time again for his shytty tactics and personnel decisions. But at the same time, that USMNT squad simply CANNOT compete at the level of, say, Brazil, Ecuador or Mexico. There's a fairly noticeable lack of talent in that squad.

ESPN has been pushing this agenda for over a decade

It's not working, the best male athletes in this country don't play soccer

Men's soccer and tennis are in the same situation, there losing the athletes even before their born because their parents don't care either

The agenda to provide coverage on sports other then Football. :dead:

They invested heavily in the sport along with Fox Sports. 75 million a year to show MLS between the 2 channels. Why spend that money and not promote the product you are invested in? Lets not even get started on how much money the World Cup brings in.

As for the best athletes in this country don't play soccer. :yawn: :deadhorse:

You don't care about the sport which is fine. Why come into every thread that is talking about the sport and say the same thing though?

You guys lack understanding if you think a national federation's objective failings is due to lack of talent.

Talent doesn't matter, because there's nothing you can do about not having great players you can call up.


what does matter is being a terrible manager making consistently bad tactical judgement.

If your team is medicore, it's your job as a MANAGER to make them the best medicore team they can possibly, with the RIGHT tactics.

The UMSNT are not expected by anyone, not even Sunil, to win a world cup. The USMNT are judged by their expectations to meet goals they've met before.


He's not being fired because the USMNT is trash or even because they lost the first 2 matches of the qualifying rounds, but because of the MANNER in which they lost.




And did you just mention Mexico and Ecuador? :comeon:


The USMNT and Mexico go back to back with each other. Mexico has been on the same level of us this entire century.


Mexico aren't CONMEBOL level, breh.


I'm asking again, do you guys actually pay attention to soccer?
