The very fact that the announcement of Berhalter being coach felt like buzzkill for the panel says a lot about how they truly feel.
Paul Tenorio sounds like a propaganda machine
This is US Soccer top to bottom . Mediocre coaches and players held in position through politics.
perfectly said.....they talk about next level yet let politics keep us in mediocrity =(
politics and also through nepotism as Gregg was hired last cycle with his brother Jay's influence
Top level coaches coach professional teams where they get paid more. National team coaches are mediocre... usually...
USA Soccer. Don't make waves. Don't underperform. Stick to the system. When there is no excitement or no highlights,vfall back on the fact that you performed according to the FIFA rankings,
Yayyy!!! We proved that we can get out of the group stage by scoring 2 goals in 3 games. We squeezed our butt cheeks so tight that we were able to beat Iran 1-0. Amazing coaching, amazing tacticts, and we got through the group stage.
Boring to watch. No creativity. Not playing your best talent. Keep everyone within the system and within GGG's locus of control. And show everyone how you are a team that can be above average.
Take a chance if you are %100 sure of the outcome.
If we tweak the system we could win a game in the group stage one day
But look how we beat a depleted Mexico and won the final against Canada, who had nobody in their bracket in the Nations League. Embarrassing that claiming victory in CONCACAF has any significance to anyone besides non-soccer fans in the USA.
Nobody in the top 20 teams in the world feels threatened by the USA team. The only anxiety we cause is the embarrassment that would follow from losing to the USA because we are boring and uncreative and any team that sticks to their tactics and allows their players to express their indivuality and talent will beat the USA, just as it says on paper.
2 goals in 3 games? Forget how boring the games were, forget how our best talent wasn't on the field, and look at how we were only one of 16 teams to get this far. Depth and talent would help but belief and creativity is something a manager could actually help with.
Berhalter isn't taking the USA to the next level and he isn't interested in creating exciting soccer. Just keeping the boat from rocking and making sure nothing goes wrong.Boring to watch or get excited about.
Dempsey always keeping it real, not like USSF Simp Stuart Holden
That was not keeping it real. When they asked him if he would have gone with Gregg, he folded 😅.
@@optimus3841 Yes of course he folded. Needs that income
Awful move to bring him back. Tonight without Berhalter look how good they looked. This lineup and formation was perfect with the exception of Adam's who will start when healthy. Berhalter will come back and start guys like Zimmerman and Morris and bench Gio again.
Disagree. They are still playing Berhalter's style through his assistant. Berhalter is stable and is likely to get the team through qualification again.
@@mattsmith1126 ? this was NOTHING like Berhalter's style.
@@mattsmith1126 No they are not. They play freely and Gregg restricts that free flow of style. Pay more attention.
@@mattsmith1126 What planet do you live on?
@@mattsmith1126 also there is no "qualification", we're hosting the damn thing. Do you even watch soccer?
Nooooooo! Just when I thought we got rid of him he comes back. What does this guy have on the US that he’s given everything
He’s like Freddy Krueger or Michael Myers at this point lol always comes back for the sequel
I mean theres literally nobody else thats worth getting that would want this job.
@@lostagain7292 idk ask the guy that won 3-0 if he wants the job lol
Interés conflict, his brother work with US SOCCER 🙄🙄
@@lostagain7292 Jesse Marsch took RB Leipzig to the UCL
This is embarrassing… we couldn’t even enjoy the amazing win we had last night because of such horrible news. I understand some players stated they wanted him back but you have to think about the team. Reyna is obvious. But also think about Pepsi, he saved Berhalter’s job and he didn’t take him to the World Cup. I think we all feel Pepi would have done great at the World Cup.
Of course those players said that. They aren't smart enough to have a player strike, and don't want to be seen as "negative".
The team just destroyed our biggest rival, and you think it's embarrassing? The best thing can't also be the worst thing.
@@stevenygabbyperez695 the win isn't embarrassing. Hiring GGG is embarrassing. We just sacrificed our future while destroying our arch rival in the same night...
@Aaron Silver I am not so pessimistic. The players wanted him, let them have him, but it better be a 2 year deal, and if the squad stop improving, then they must go with a different coach. My feeling is that we have never had a better national team. I'm not going to let this keep me from enjoying the ext 4 years. I know people get crazy with Greg but it could be much worse. Look at England.
I strongly believe this USA team will never win the big tournaments. The mentality is not good. They treat football only as a business. The fact that you did not want to seek a proven manager in the men’s game because of how the women team would feel about the salary difference says it all. I can assure you England women coach does not get pay the same as Gareth and he has not won anything. I’m sorry it’s just different demands. You have people who watch every single men tournament games like me but I only see the final of the woman game. The football is totally different. Not very appealing. The football at the recent U20 World Cup is even better than the women’s World Cup. If we want parity, let’s set every single national teams men vs women best of three and see who wins
A HARD NO ON GREGG. We looked so good going forward tonight. Best we've looked in ages.
Yeah and GB’s system was implemented 😂 His hard work developing this team is finally starting to show.
Loved Roy Keane but not your comment - what you saw last night was the 'result' of Berhalter.
@@K_Kealohathe fast free flowing soccer isn't his system 😂
I hope we go out in the group stage in '26. Abject humiliation might be the only way to break the MLS stranglehold on USSF.
@@K_Kealoha that's not his system bro. They team did none of the garbage he tried to teach them.
Gregg Berhalter is a terrible USMNT Coach. He does not evaluate players based on their Talent Skill set and/or Performance. To prove My assertion; look at his treatment of John Brooks, Ricardo Pepi and Tim Ream.
Tim Ream turned out to be the best USA player in the squad. He only made the team as a last minute replacement. His treatment of Geo Reyna, in the weeks prior to the world cup is an excellent indicator of his poor communication and player management skills.
The USMNT finished the qualifying campaign in 3rd place barely edging out Costa Rica. While the player pool of available talent is the highest it has ever been. The USMNT made it to Qatar despite their mediocre incompetent coach.
Can anyone list positive attributes that Berhalter possess that makes him a good coach for a national team?
He's like a walking manifestation of how we wound up with Wondolowski in Brazil
Do bounce passes and good shoe game count?
TY Clint for being honest and accurate - none of the fans want this so why are they doing it anyway....what leverage does he have over his bosses? It's definitely something
Corruption within US Soccer
@@Lawlzinator Absolutely
I mean I'm a fan and I'm cool with it
MLS wants to use the '26 WC to market the league and its players. Expect 2/3 of the '26 roster to be MLS.
@@todwest I highly doubt that my guy lol
How the heck can you bring this guy back???? If Berhalter was coach for this game, who would he have started? Absolute joke. Now I have to hear about his shoes and behind the back passes. Great job USMNT.
You don't have to. At this point, there are two options. Make peace with the fact that the players you love, love Berhalter, and demanded he come back... or stop following USMNT. No matter what happens, the next 4 years will be the most successful in USMNT history. It would be a shame to miss that because you don't like the coach.
@@stevenygabbyperez695what? You think the players will say anything bad about GB and dont expect retaliation frm GB if he is the coach? GB is too rigid in his thoughts.
@v a Bro, you have entered into delusional conspiracy land. You really think Greg Berhalter is some criminal master mind that has brainwashed and intimidated the players to pretend they like him? Doesn't that sound crazy to you?
Is this Daniele Reyna's burner account?
@@jspring9588 🤣🤣🤣
"They were aspiring for big things in 2026." So they bring Berhalter back. That's the funniest/saddest thing I've heard in a long time.
We could never score goals with Gregg, his system makes every player play stiff and like robots. We already gave him the four years. We barely even qualified to the world cup with an automatic spot
BJ did an amazing job, he put all our star players as starters and got us a big easy win against Mexico. Why would we need Greg? More drama? That’s all his bringing
I’m more interested in gio reyna playing that Greg’s return
Of course players are going to say bring back GB. If the players say "hell no," then GB comes back, GB will retaliate.
I agree but the players want him back and they have spoke out about it many times. Also, There’s no denying that he has one of the best records of any USA coach. So despite the gio situation, it’s best to do what makes the squad happy and the squad wants him back.
@@camerongutierrez6425they don’t want him back though
@@Number1Camper not tryna argue, but wasn’t there a interview with pulisic where he said he was confused why GB was let go and wanted him rehired?
gio reyna is shite
The fans don’t want him I say boo him every game
Gregg Berhalter STOOD OUT AS THE BEST CANDIDATE after being taking to the cleaners by JOHN HERDMAN AND LOU VAN GAAL
A below mediocre coach won’t take them past the group stage in the World Cup . US soccer is anti football, they encourage pay to play .
One of the worst football organizations in the world
You are aware he already took them into knockouts right? lol
@@seed.planted in very weak group , you really think wales and iran were great sides ? Both have dropped in form . Bales was already in decline . Iran had fired the coach a few months before the tournament.
Canada convincingly beat the US team under Gregg 4-0 during WC qualifying.
A declined Mexico was top of the US in group standings .
Next World Cup , most teams will get stronger, England, Brazil ,France, Germany , Spain, Italy, Japan , Korea and of course African nations will be much stronger .
Maybe Argentina and Croatia will be weaker .
@@seed.planted yet they barely made it past the group stage. The US didn't score and their play style was stiff and that's why Netherlands beat them.
Just getting to past the group stage is not enough.
no, No, NO! Terrible news. This sucks, that guy took them as far as they will ever go with him in charge and that was not good. Have to deal with him for another 4 years and get embarrassed at home next World Cup.
At least at I can enjoy Messi in MLS.
I'm so angry about this. If he really stood out as the best candidate from pool of more than a dozen, the person who picked that candidate pool needs to be fired. What an embarrassment!!
It's as if a USSF ventriloquist is sitting behind Paul Tenorio! So this announcement comes out the day of the Mexico match because...? Doesn't take a genius to figure that one out! Get ready for more coach favorites taking up spots on the team that don't deserve to be there and only hinder our chances to progress as a national team!
The day? It came out basically at game time.
It wasn’t US Soccer’s announcement, it was him making a report (or leak).
@@mattduell3 and who do you think leaked it to him ?
I laughed when I read your comment because I was thinking the same thing. That guy was all about keeping his access and did everything to defend the terrible decision to bring back Greg.
@@NoName-wg6ip and it's just so blatantly obvious!
bruh i just don’t see how this is a good decision…. weird gio/ gregg dynamic in locker room , quickest way to ruin a team is locker room issues.
I can't wait for Gregg to comeback! I miss watching us have no attacking identity other than flying down the wing with our fullbacks, having our wingers drop back, then sending aimless crosses in the the towering 5'8" Jesus Ferreira. No more Balogun or Pepe battling for starts, no more Reyna breaking down defenders.
I miss those days too! Nothing like an away draw against a vastly inferior opponent.
Wow!
I thought it was Berhalter’s perplexing roster selections with Lletget/Roldán/Farreira/Long/Morris and his capricious nature…
Really looking forward the the '26 roster and its mostly MLS makeup. MLS and USSF are all one big happy family, after all.
@@sheldoninst : You're not being entirely fair to Gregg. He's very religious. So you can't blame him if he thought Jesus would save the team.
Yeah I completely agree.. today’s game was disgusting. We scored a bunch of goals and had an attacking presence all game. Good thing we getting Greggy back
We keep doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. We have a young, talented team. We need a coach that can take us to the next level and that is not Berhalter.
But they want a coach that can guarantee a huge payday for MLS in '26. That's what this is about.
@@todwest Yup. Were going to hear, "MLS coach yada yada history, on the World Cup stage"
They want a coach who will wear rainbow flags and BLM shirts. That is 100% Gregg Buttfucker. It is 100% NOT Jose Mourinho, who was interested in the job.
Terrible move, nobody wanted him back, they should keep Callahan.
Horrible move.....that's all I can say. He was so out coached in the World Cup. Did they asked John Brooks?
Whyyyyyyyyy is Walker-Zimmerman considered to be a part of the "leadership team." What in the worrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrld
Now we're going to see Balogun sit on the bench because Berhalter thinks he's not ready.
The entire mentality of this man's philosophy. Absolute clown shown; we deserve all the misery we will witness with this man in charge
I’m no longer a fan, thank you ussf for ending my 15 years of fandom. And no ussf did not interview anyone else, it has always been berhalter.
36 years for me.
Same. Time to root against them in the hope a five game losing streak will end Gregg Buttfucker’s career. Lose the battle to win the war.
Berhalter is a terrible coach ! He lets his feelings get on the way of what’s best for the team ! Not to mention decisions making !
Greg has already said that Balogun and Pepi are not going to make the 2026 World Cup roster because Jordan Morris and Jesus Fererra are the top 2 candidates.
He is also going to replace Reyna with Christian Roldan
Don’t forget Gyasi Zardes will somehow playb
Source please?
Maybe they can find a spot for Altidore as well!
Wow, what a silly comment... Berhalter will put the best players on the roster - Morris and Ferrera will have aged out because remember that we're still 3 years away from the WC.
@@tomdempsey8818 This WC is an opportunity the MLS to market itself on the global stage. I guarantee you that the '26 roster will be mostly MLS players, probably something like 2/3. Greggggg will do what is best for MLS's bottom line.
Gregg Berhalter is a NO GO. Dude benched one of his best talents during the World Cup over some internal beef lol! Bring Bob Bradley back if it's anyone lol! USMNT achieved some competitive feats with him as a Head Manager. Charlie Davis can attest to that along with Clint Dempsey.
Bob Bradley got bounced from third division English soccer and was fired from the Egypt job... You can't be serious...
@@mattsmith1126 I’m not going to disagree on those facts but Gregg Berhalter vs Bob Bradley USMNT Managerial Campaign… not even a contest. Bradley had more success and did better than the Jurgen Klinsman and it was a hypothetical suggestion if they were to bring someone back from a previous gig. Was not to be taken serious lol! Berhalter had his chance and showed he can’t do much with the amount of talent @ hand plus the weird internal beef seems extremely conflicting.
@@consumeboxing World soccer has advanced allot and Bob Bradley is not a serious candidate anymore. He can't even get a low level job at the moment and we are looking for a top-level manager.
Charlie Davies is a clown. Let's be honest charlie, what's gonna grow our game more a men's world cup at home or women's? What is gonna bring in more money? What's the more attractive job? Is Jose Mourinho gonna go take the women's national team job, does he even want it? So which coach should be paid more? People get paid for financial reasons, not cause of your agenda
This happened? For real? If so I am done.
Does that guy Tenorio work for US Soccer? He said the players were positive about World Cup qualifying and the results during the tournament. So not getting past the first knockout game is positive? And barely qualifying for the World Cup is positive? What a joke.
This USMNT somehow finished lower than 2014 USMNT in qualifying
He actually works for US Soccer on the sly.
Does tenorio work for the USSF?. Geez. He’s supposed to be an objective journalist.
In fact, he does. I had avenues to know intimate details about virtually any American in my previous vocation. Just for shits and giggles, I looked up Tenorio. He literally cashes checks from US Soccer.
Berhalter held this team back from this past cycle and World Cup. Why do we keep suppressing this generation. Terrible decision to bring him back. Terrible!!!
This is why US soccer will never be top 3 sport in US or be as elite as argentina or germany or even morocco nowdays. This mediocre mentality by the federation and stupid decsions smh 🤦 who is in charge of US soccer??? Im out it was fun while it lasted but im done with US soccer. Ill watch morocco play now ❤US soccer fans im sorry don't get your hopes up . You guys deserve better but unfortunately you cant get what you want not soon that is ❤
"The best option". What a joke. USMNT and USSF is not moving forward.
What the hell is Davies talking about
They don’t want to pay the men’s coach 10x more than the women’s coach. The last sexual discrimination lawsuit almost bankrupted them.
They need a top class manager they got the talent with this move i feel they will not live up to their potential
How the F does this happen. Berhalter isn’t at the level to coach these players he just isn’t. USA fumbled the bag and probably just jeopardized the World Cup Smh 🤦🏽
Edit: not that they were going to win it but they have a chance to have their best performance.
What USNMT accomplished in the past 4 years is in spite of Berhalter and not because of him. His player selection, rigid game strategy, playing people out of position, and favoring poor MLS players all suck. his re-selection is criminal.
“Gregg still stood out” 😑
I feel like first day of junior high school and I just get my schedule and Im reading Greg Berhalter is my math teacher 😮
yeah, I'm sure the players felt really good about getting utterly dominated by the first good coach and team combo they played at the WC!!! Real momentum out of that, getting completely dismantled by someone who actually knows tactics, adjustments and roster selection.
Yo.....I watched the highlights, and for the first time in a while, we looked decent and DOMINATED in terms of attacking and even defending. Sure, we have had these before, but come on man.....even though he won some nice games, the style we played was still sub-par, I could not see us defeating BIG LEAGUE teams such as Brazil and Spain.
My goodness man, the guy arguing with Clin is not understanding the actual sport, HOW IS GREGG THE BEST CANDIDATE??? Bring us someone from Europe.....man please let us not be embarrassed hosting the damn thing, or let us, and HOPEFULLY that will be a lesson
Oh no, no berhalter! Please! He's not good for usmnt. Too much baggage. We deserve someone better!
Dude, you should have put your attention to Jim Curtin instead to Greg. I am not American, but if you ask me the American figure to lead your boy. It is Jim Curtin
Just take a look on Union records for the last 3 seasons. Consistently reaching playoffs stages and also he present an aggressive offensive football
He’s a hell of a coach but when you watch the way the US play (especially last night) the wings are so important. Hiring a coach who plays with no wingers wouldn’t fit this team.
BERHALTER OUT!!!
Just when I thought he was out, they pull him back in.
You lost me when you compare the women’s and men’s team lol sorry the women don’t have to worry about the possibility of playing against the worlds best ever.
We will never learn!! Every time we go back to a old coach we go backwards! We will never be able to compete with bigger teams if we continue with the way the USA federation does business. Embarrassing
I think players were happy that Berhalter was out. We need a different coach.
One of the questions was definitely how good your powerpoints are. Gregg has got everyone beat on that one!🤡
If you interview a dozen candidates and Gregg is seen as a step above those candidates...US soccer is a lost cause
Greg is a high school coach at best, I guess USA wants to be mediocre in the worlds eye
Absolutely terrible! Why? Ugh! Berhalter is God awful!
USSF is obsessed with promoting MLS. Look at all the European based players trashing Mexico. But noooo. We can't have that.
This panel is obviously shocked but still managed to ask good questions! LOL
SAY NO to GB 🤪🤣😂
Moore over scally, CCV got only one game, Gio Reyna drama, leaving Pepi at home, no Brooks. We scored only 3 goals all tournament. How could this man come back to the job where he barely did the bare minimum and even then he did it wrong
GB will play keep away in the back and lose then say we won the possesion game. His style is too rigid and Balogun will flounder.
What is overpay? It's market price! If you want to hold us man at the women's level, then you'll forever stay at women's level. No wonder us man sucks!
Worst take ever. So are WNBA coaches now making Phil Jackson money? This is horrible
Clint is a real one! ✊
I mean how much more does the US Soccer Federation have to do to build mistrust of them? This is a disaster.
Oh my goodness, we should not have brought him back.
Berhalter manages this USMNT like a cult leader
Calling them USNMT is embarrassing
If you interview a dozen international coaches and Berlhalter is the best option, fire the board choosing the options... that's a joke at best or covering their behind to hiring the guy they were always going to hire. Berhalter squandered this group, he can't be the answer to "unlock" them...
"How else was i going to wind up in this seat next to you guys?" ... That tells it all right there ... he traded his integrity to be a puppet mouthpiece in exchange for a seat at the table.
Charlie Davies’ completely INcoherent.
Jesse Marsch took RB Leipzig to the UCL hello?!
Charlie’s argument is insane. If you care so much about equity between the usmnt and Uswnt coaches, pay the the woman’s coach more! Don’t not hire the best coach available for the men!
They don’t have the funds for that, Ussoccer is low key broke haha.
It’s why the women got a pittance in the first place.
Who is this goofball? Why did he have to tweet this terrible news before the end of the tournament???
For Attention
Berhalter's brother Jay is an exec in US soccer federation is it surprising that he was rehired "he stood out alright" US Soccer looks shady
Head Coach Gregg Berhalter regain his role as USMNT Manager for September Camp vs. Uzbekistan and Oman as Berhalter led the USMNT to 2026 FIFA World Cup as the team's host nation
dempsey understands us
They interview 12 candidates & nothing better? 🤣🤣🤣🤣👎👎
Love the sort of push back on that journalist. Sounding like he works for the USSF lol you can tell Clint was not happy about Gregg coming back
So according to Davis because you want parity, you must pay a Pep or Mourinho the same as the woman’s team coach? Totally different CV.
Whoever made this decision has no finger on the pulse of the fan😂
What next level?!😂
USSF has become a joke. Sad to see our talented players be subjected to this poor management and mediocrity.
the women got beat down by wrexham 12-0 in 40 minutes - it's not apples to apples in terms of $
Should've given Mourinho the entire world. Hopefully I'm wrong but this is already a disaster for the team, WC, and our ceiling overall.
Also how is he not coaching the gold cup. It's literally his job to coach the national team but he isn't to focus on something else?...
U.S. needs a major 4 Euro coach considering his most promising players all play in europe and not mls
The players that were not that good, were desperate to support Berhalter because they were worried about playing or not.
So it is totally moot talking about him having support in the locker room.
You idiots that are barely coming around dont realize that Gio Reyna has been a beast for almost 4 years but was barely able to crack the U.S. national team...in "soccer" you must never put tenure ahead of skill idc if Gio was 14 yo,he should be always playing
This is ridiculous. Berhalter hasn't done anything as U.S. coach. At all. There was no momentum after the world cup. We've finished in the same spot before. Come on man. We have young talent that plays in Europe........Europe is where the best coaches come from.
Clint is truly Texas’ finest!
Please do not bring Gregg back for the love of the children
The team isn’t about Gio Reina or his family. This is USA national team. If Gio isn’t fit or work hard he will be bench. Gio needs to make sure his mother stay out of his business or he will be kick out the USA man team. No player is above the national team. Gregg Berhalter is a great coach. Reina was not fit at the work cup. He was coming from injury.
This guy is such a USSF TOOL
Awesome! He did not do anything wrong honestly!!!
Interviews aren't going to tell you who the best choice is. Bad decision. Change is needed.
Who were the "dozens" of other candidates? If GGG stood out I have to assume they didn't interview anyone serious. Tenorio sounds like a GGG shill and every point he made on what USSF was looking for in a coach is not offered by GGG.
I would like to know who else was actually in the running.
This is a disaster, the federation needs to be protested
Clint with the mic drop at the end 😂 but yeahhh Gregg is not the move.
1 step forward, 2 steps back for the USMNT
"Somehow.. Berhalter returned"
