Pochettino to USMNT

Seems like a move in the right direction, but can he over come the structural problems with US Soccer (both the entity and the nation).

I’d have to think after dealing with Daniel Levy at Tottenham and Boehly at Chelsea as well as the fools who run QSI, he told Matt Crocker and Cindy Parlow to fuck off when he is running the team.🤣🤣

He likes to play direct, right? That should make some people happy... until they can't win games. I didn't see what the contract was but he had to have taken a pay cut, no?

Chelsea is fun to watch last season but defense is leaky. don't know how it translates to international game.
failed to manage neymar mbappe messi together but it is not a problem for USMNT.
Success at Spurs with Kane/Son before PSG career. hopefully this is the version we get.
Even if we are out by group stage, I am quite confident the team will be more exciting to watch.
US Soccer really gets the best they can get this time.

He likes to move the ball around, to press and play high. He’s focused on attacking but build from the back. I think win or lose we will enjoy watching them play. I have a feeling he will get paid well but not Chelsea money.
 
the money is good

I’m sure there is also a buyout in the contract that would give pause to any club that wants to go after him before the World Cup

Him and Crocker were at Southampton at the same time , so there is a relationship

There isn’t a world class player on this roster or even a top 100 player ( maybe CP), so doesn’t bother me that he may have struggled with the superstars at PSG. Neymar and his father seem like a pain on the ass anyways

Besides Klopp ( who was always a pipe dream ), this is probably the best available coach on the market

It would have been crazy for US soccer to put any handcuffs on him or even him to accept the job with handcuffs . I have a feeling he will be able to do whatever he wants , and he will certainly tell the Reyna’s to F off if they start causing drama again

A+++ hire . Does it work out, maybe not , but US Soccer swung for the fences finally

I hope the first thing he does is to tell these so called “golden “ generation that they actaully haven’t achieved anything and to get to work
