    Let's just put it this way... If the USMNT were a privately owned sports team, Berhalther would have been sacked after the second season. Enough is enough. We have seen again and again that GB is a clueless coach. He doesn't have the knowledge or personality to fire up a team.

      100% correct. And I'll add:
      Berhalter could never get hired to manage a team in any of the leagues where our players play.
      If Berhalter managed Panama, they would have lost the game against us.

    England just squeaked through the quarterfinal, with criticism on Southgate mounting higher and higher. But the US can’t get out of their group, and we can’t criticize the coach? We’re just supposed to say, “oh it’s just an arbitrary deadline/timeline” I guess it just doesn’t matter that the core of our team will be 27-23 years old in 2026. We don’t have any world-beaters. Well, neither does Panama.

    The problems with Berhalter are numerous. Not getting out of the group is ridiculous. We should expect more from these players and the coach. It's simply time for a change.

    Under Berhalter there are always seems to be mountains to climb. Same thing that happened with Dest when he got a red card against Trinidad and Tobago. Needing an own goal against Jamaica in the last minute of the game in the Nations League. It is not coincidental. It comes from the top.

    It’s him we need to drop this mentality in our players to always blame the refs it’s the sport it’s drama but we need to look at our manager he’s tactics and roster picks are not what we need, we need an update we are getting good enough to have decent players but we need better managers to bring our lot closer to the greats.

    He never was responsible for the failures of the players. They promised to compete at the highest level as they came back home from club teams which did not trust their skills to get playing time. The team was con by frauds. That is not the coaching's fault. 100 % on players' failure.

    The ball was repeatedly put into an extreme attacking position against Uruguay and whoever is on the ball couldn't make the final play. So, "the system" worked in the sense that the attack built well into the box and whomever had the shot, couldn't make it. Is that Berhalter's fault? The players failed. Weah's Red Card? That was Berhalter's fault? The offside goal? That was Berhalter's fault?
    Compare the USA "Golden generation" to Belgium's. Man to man are the Americans as good as those Belgium players? No. Other than Pulisic who would be able to play on Belgium? Anyone else?

      Compare this USMNT team to Colombia? In terms of player quality, the difference is tiny. But the difference in how they play is huge.
      The USMNT has failed to beat any team better than us in six years under Berhalter. That's terrible.
      As for Weah's red card, that's on him, of course. But the failure to have a plan in the event that a player gets an early red card? That's all Berhalter.

      Berhalter created a culture where Dest and Weah are getting ridiculous red cards in important matches. This team needs a real leader, not some weirdo trying to be their friend who owes his job to them vouching for him.
