Glad he's leaving. Glorified Ruben Amorim. Lost us the belgium game by playing a back three…against a team with Doku and Trossard on the wings. Absolute dipshit and fraud. Bet that’s a fucking wig he’s wearing.
>>
>>158565033
He played a back 4 against Belgium you fucking doofus
>>
>>158565033
What lost you that game was corruption, trump getting into bed with infantino. Belgium got a huge motivational boost from that. They're also a better side.
>>
>yanks really think they will get someone better than Poch
Amusing. He was too good for you lot anyway

>>
>>158567339
You don't know why that had anything to do with it, because its not related to Belgium being a better side, and you don't know anything about football.

Belgium entered that game, particularly motivated, with the support of the world willing them to beat the USA and knock them out of the tournament. That was because of the corruption and the most jewish world cup in history

If he leaves it will be unforgiveable. A great betrayal. We gave him so much money and that should mean something.

Pochettino's ability to fail upwards is astounding. What about the USA's complete meltdown against Belgium, at home, convinced Man United's board that he's the guy to handle any big games they might play?
>>
>>158567524
>Do something about it
What about I going to do, hold Trump to account?

lmao what...

Football is going to hold Infantino to account and your own country is holding Trump to account by the looks of it.

>D-Dey was super motivated
I speak English. The mother language anon. Please remember that.

>>158567542
Belgium wasted their golden generation. They're infamous for their wishy washy underwhelming, unmotivated, divisive performances. They often squabble among themselves and with the manager.

It was a bad world cup anyway, awful in fact. Jewish personified. No country took their real support. Ad breaks. Soulless stadiums, slow shit football, bad pitches etc. The world hated it. But when news leaked that americans were in cahoots with infantino to sell football out, along with trump personally and brazenly trying to rig the tournament, at Belgium's expense, that was a significant source of motivation for Belgium. There was a sense of injustice and anti american sentiment peaked. Belgium went into that game with the mentality of putting the USA to the sword, and they did. That sort of mentality, has often been missing from Belgium.

Nice try you retarded mutts
>>
Should we re-hire Poch after he’s sacked in ~1 years time?

>>
>>158574453
You're right
England must have won every world cup game they've played against us
>>
>>158574436
What? I called Poch shite and didn't mention United. Why are you acting like he's already a club legend? You'll be saying the same thing as me come January.

>>158574435
Cos you have better players than you've ever had before, and were hosting the World Cup. The tactics and mentality of the team didn't get as much out of the players as they have to give. I'm confident with a better manager that US squad could have beat Belgium pretty comfortably.
>>
>>158574499
You clearly didn't see us in the copa america
>>
>>158574487
England being crap, doesnt make the USA good anon. We can both be shit. We can both swirl around the plug hole as countries and societies. You know that right. But England do have some sort of justified expectation, some sort of pedigree considering what theyve done in recent years and who they beat in qualifying. What was the USA expectation based on? Your team is shit, your fans are shit. "Right lads, semi final at least, the final, we can do this"

Idk what's the point of expecting to lose? Especially in a sport you don't follow enough to care outside once every four years

I didn't think we were going to beat Belgium based on us getting our asses handed to us back in March.
>>
>>158574551
You couldn't beat him
>>
>>158574507
You didnt bring in Poch until after the Copa America.
>>
>>158574560
He couldnt beat anyone else though could he, hence why he was sacked and you hired a foreign manager that could
>>
>>158574570
Yeah it was a fucking comparison point, Ahmed
>>
>>158574435

In previous World Cups the USA have always played hard and been more than the sum of their parts. This was the first time I've seen them totally capitulate. The manager is to blame for not preparing them properly.
>>
>>158574581
Our performances against Paraguay and Australia were the best American performances in world cup games in history

Also we did very poorly against the Dutch in 18 and Belgium in 14
I know the 14 game went to ET but we gave up the most shots on goal in a world cup game ever
>>
>>158574614
The US has enough talent that it shouldn't even have to worry or care about Paraguay or Australia, and should be much more dangerous against teams like Belgium. Your next manager should be someone who doesn't look like he's playing for a draw whenever the opponent's team has a couple of washed old Serie A or Bundesliga players.
>>
>>158574765
>The US has enough talent that it shouldn't even have to worry or care about Paraguay or Australia
And yet it took until Poch to play that way
>>
>>158574551
>What american managers are world class?
None. What I’m trying to convey is that unfortunately there is very little critical analysis of a manager if he’s foreign. Same shit happened with Klinsmann and coincidentally he was a very similar manager to Poch. I value defensive solidity and neither of them brought that. Simeone would unironically be a fantastic manager for us.

He's going to coach the Haiti games
No word on who takes over for the Jamaica friendly in December

>>158575355
I was talking strictly play style here, not results
Like for example the Spain game in 09
Great wom from a program standpoint but it wasn't like the US overwhelmed Spain with tenacity and attacking movement
They bunkered down and hit Spain with two quick attacks
But that's just hoping and praying for results

Also Poch was the coach for the Uruguay game you're our of your goddamn mind

i mean usa are gonna suck nomatter who they pick just from how useless the youth coaching is there. but i think they should try and find a style of play and then keep appointing managers that want to play that same style. ive never even heard of any of these guys who are apparently interested in the job, but i think they should try and find coaches who play a hardworking physical style, because it suits the kind of players they can produce. more klopp than pep. i dont think it really makes a difference where the manager is from but youd like someone who has good english and also not so highly rated that they immediately fuck off because some big club wants them

>>158584261
Head coaches for national teams dont raise anyone's technical abilities in a handful of days a year. National team coaches need to be tactically sound and uphold and identity that suits the card they're dealt. Its totally different from club
>>
>>158585944
Anyone who thought he would stay for the whole cycle is an idiot
He's not an American and he would have been away from the club game for 6 years
Why would he maintain that commitment?
It's probably the reason Pep won't commit either
Does he really want to spend the next 3 years gameplanning against Guatemala or Barbados?
>>
>>158585935
As horrendous this would be, it's not happening anymore. This bald fuck is failing in MLS and there's way too much baggage associated with him after the reyna scandal. Word on the street is Guardiola and Nagelsmann are targets from our federation.
>>
>>158586087
>This bald fuck is failing in MLS
?
>>
usa should just get an interim manager for the next 6 months and get poch back when he gets fired at the end of the season
>>
>>158586097
He hasn't done shit with chicago last two seasons. Playoffs are so easy to enter for any non retarded mls team so that isn't an accomplishment. BJ at Nashville has done a better job in MLS and he's not being looked at by the federation either.
>>
>>158586069
yeah, i think the most important thing with a national team setup is stability and a long term plan, some americans dont like klinsmann but something like that. either a guy who is just done with club management and wants a long term retirement job or someone who teams bigger than USA wouldnt consider stealing. if you somehow did get pep you know hes fucking off in 2 years so theres no point. i dont think he suits your playstyle either but thats another conversation.
>>
>>158586125
Nashville didn't sell the golden boot winner to sign a geriatric Polack
>>
Realistically we should be looking for Poch replacements from the same football style. Pep isn't that big of a possession merchant these days but he still wants world class midfielders that control the game and we don't have that as a national team. We're probably gonna have to get a German manager again who has similar ideas to Poch. Bielsa is a control freak and wouldn't be welcomed by US Soccer. Klopp is already taken by Germany and will probably stay the entire cycle, he would've been my number 1 choice.
>>
>>158586087
>Word on the street is Guardiola and Nagelsmann are targets from our federation

Why would either take it. United arent signing Poch because of what he's done with the US. Nagelsmann failed with Bayern Munich and Germany, he's not going to rebuild his reputation by managing the US. Guardiola probably has one more job in him, its going to be Barcelona 2.0
>>
>>158586236
Nagelsmann is not even 40 yet, he could easily spend another 4 year cycle bumming around and then going back to the club game
>>
>>158586236
i wouldnt say nagelsmann is a bigger name than poch and he took it. you never know with unemployed managers. theyre both just sitting around until a big club side sacks their manager and eventually they will get one of those jobs. if they did go to USA theyd just be sitting around the exact same way but getting paid to do so, so its not impossible
>>
>>158586218
agree with this. i cant see any manager in the top 5 leagues ditching their club mid season to take the usa job, so it would either have to be a guy from a smaller league or a guy without a job currently. i dont know how many of these that have a physical pressing style exist. a lot of ex bundesliga coaches would fit that. guys like ralph hasenhuttl, kasper hjulmand, roger schmidt, horst steffen, bo henriksen play that way. not exactly big names and i dont know if they could run something as big as usa but if you want a style fit there you go.
