      I’m sure the U.S see’s Canada as “minnows” but if you knew the rostered players Americans would see that Canada is not only on par with them but likely have a much better team at the moment and for at least the next few years.
      What’s even crazier is if you followed Canada qualification matches the past 25 years you would know Canada has never had a team able get forward so easily, I watched some of the old qualifiers at the Azteca, and Canada didn’t even get passed half let alone score on a team like Mexico multiple times.
      I understand the Mexican team is not what it was and the U.S also but they need to recognize Canada has legitimate players that seem to be just getting warmed -up

      Canada also has more talent. David and bunch of those other players are way more talented playmakers and runners than anything the US has. US player development sucks not using the MLS for their homegrown players but shipping them out to europe to sit on the bench and be paraded like mascots. Canada has 14 MLS players with less resources and look where they are now.

I would choose Canada's top 7 players (Davies, David, Eustaquio, Kone, Buchanan, Shaffelburg & Johnston) any day over the U.S. top 7 & Canada has a much better goalkeeper in Crepeau too (despite last night's strange Venezuelan goal). Also the rest of the Canadian team (i.e. Bombito, Cornelius, Millar etc...) have great potential.
      The U.S. need to do an honest assessment of their team & stop making these false statements based on assumptions & please don't come back & talk about wins in the Gold cup, in which the best players don't usually participate & the Nations cup, in which Canada was the 2023 runner up, despite the fact that Canada had a lot of union issues etc...& were not at their best.

You cherry pick a couple of recent tournaments where Canada has outlasted the US, but have overlooked other tourneys where Canada came up short, and the States had the better results.

    The Venezuelan goal was caused by the fact that when the Canadian player was throwing the ball in before that goal, the Venezuelan goalkeeper went over & interfered with the ball thrower, which should have been an automatic yellow; but it was completely ignored by the Ref. The Canadian player should not have thrown the ball in right away because Marsch & the Canadian players were still stunned by the Refs decision & I believe that both Bombito & Crepeau were also upfield because they were correctly expecting a yellow card. Terrible Reffing partially caused that goal.

    @sisque16 16 днів тому +2

    Here’s a technical breakdown to hire Marsch, US soccer chooses players on speed and physicality, not technical ability; using this logic our players are better suited playing a high press and/or counterattacking style because using our speed/physicality we can maximize our strengths in transition in the counter attack and in transition where one pass can lead to a dangerous situation. Berhalter on the other hand is trying to play a possession based system, so if you take my assumption of the players we pick, our speed and athleticism is a weakness when trying to play out of the back.

    • @coffeebean5975

      @nias2631 16 днів тому

      I agree to some extent on the high press thing. What you lack in experience you make up for in speed and athleticism.
      But I don't think our midfield is that bad. Our midfield has been stronger than most, e.g. England in the WC.
      In Copa Amer what I saw was young guys who don't know how to play S Amer ball.
      If you hold the ball for any length of time you will get taken out. You only dribble at the opponents penalty box because they can't foul you there. Otherwise it should be fast passing through the middle when things line up. Every time our guys decided to dribble to progress the ball all the space was shut down immediately because conmebol is great at that. It has always been that way.

    - Then we have Canada Men's team and their coach Jesse Marsch who clearly said yesterday that his team has a Tough Mentality. I add to that their Coach Marsch also has that Mentality.
    Canada will play the Semifinal against Argentina
    The USMNT is out
    Remind me again what are the positive characteristics of Gregg Berhalter?
    Did we as the USMNT benefit something from Gregg's personality or whatever it is that he's teaching?
    Ecuador Fired their Coach next day
    Even Brazil in past tournaments fired it's world champion coach when they lost
    France does the same< England Germany..
    What are the benefits to US FANs from Gregg Berhalter staying on as USMNT coach?
    It's like this, you know how to win because winning is a natural thing to you, but others can benefit from our tough mentality US coaches, not us?
    The USSF is not managing a situation GENIOUSLY, it is creating more opportunities for Failure to last longer. I seriously doubt Gregg Berhalter knows what happened against Columbia or Panama. For the USSF to act like Gregg is a part of some genius plan for 2026, they're taking a huge risk which is guaranteed to cost the USMNT more regression.
    Gregg has nothing else to give to the USMNT, and the players can like him all they want it won't change the fact that our style of play can win (Canada) but we lost. This means we played below our natural level Mr. Berhalter.
