An objectively cynical and lame idea that I will follow obsessively if the US gets invited. MLB shouldn’t let them call it that tho
-
If that’s true, GGG is actively sabotaging his job prospects even more than I initially thought. Egos running loose on both sides of the story, but Gio comes out looking more professional somehow.

Bien Leo you guys

To me, the reaction of the players is very telling. The vote to send him home was apparently very close. This cannot be a first time offense for the players to respond to his behavior so negatively. I also understand Gio’s perspective. There’s a difference between being told you’re not going to start and finding out that not only are you not a starter, but you’re behind Jordan Morris as an attacking sub because that makes zero strategic sense. Jordan only does one thing better than Gio and that’s his effort/work rate. Another indicator that this is not a new issue with Gio. Coaches and players like to win, and if they’re ready to turn their back on their most talented player, it’s because they don’t think he’s going to help them win for reasons other than talent and with a talent like Gio, they would put up with a lot before they hit that point. Regardless, GGG either intentionally or unintentionally crossed the line by airing it out publicly.
-
Can’t love Gio’s arrogance on the pitch without being prepared for arrogance off the pitch. Being forced to choose between a player & a manager? Folks, welcome to the big time. Carlos Vela, Hakim Ziyech, on and on. This stuff happens.
-
Certainly seems to add to the rumors that Gregg is the one who is ready to move on and back to the club game. Talking about a player like that, even in coded language without naming a name, is not behavior of a coach who plans to continue managing that player.
-
Young star who’s ego is too big for the crest? Passive aggressive leaks from a lame duck manager? Folks were becoming a true footballing nation. GGG is truly changing the way people view American soccer.

Booo get him outta here

Feel like the champions league was a throw away & his main point is we don’t have strikers nearly as good as Memphis, which is obviously true. People can parse his words if they want, but it’s not that controversial and I don’t need to catch him in a technicality when he’s entirely correct. Especially when he’s got one foot out the door.
-
Gggareth was just growing into the tournament. This was the plan all along.
-
Pelle is my American choice. My top choice is LVG. The way be approached us & everything he has said after the game indicates that he’s intrigued by the talent and he obviously put on a tactical masterclass against them today.
-
To me the Gio question can only be answered by Gio, Puli, Weah, and Aaronson. MMA is set. Balogun or Pepi should be our starting striker early in the reset because they represent the biggest upside. After that, you’ve got four players for two spots. If Gio wants to be all he can be, all he has to do is stay healthy and outplay two of those guys. He should be able to pull it off if he’s everything we think he is. The criticism of his lack of minutes has definitely been dulled by how well Weah played and how little Gio did with his opportunities. I am fascinated to see the next two transfer windows. These guys are going to level up. Especially MMA.

The stand outs from CONCACAF u-20 qualifying were our wingers and attacking midfield. Most outstanding, Brendan Aaronson’s lil bro Paxten. So no, but we’ve got plenty of time. Think of how few of these players were in the picture for this tournament back in 2018. Christian & Tyler, basically. For example: Pepi, even though it doesn’t feel like it, is still a premier striker prospect.
-
I’m not sad at all. I’ve never felt more confident about the program. WNT is about to go upside the world’s head in a couple years. We got the Olympics, which we will take seriously with the lack of quali and other competitive games. I’m going to build a sports fan religion around Tyler Adams the way I did Deuce (wherever he goes, that’s my club team). I live more US players than ever because we are legit better than ever. Musah’s dev will be fascinating to watch. Reyna’s will be fascinating to watch. New coach probably. I’ve never been an “it’s only a matter of time” guy when it comes to running a men’s cup, but I am am now. We will win a World Cup in my lifetime.
-
Yeah. We're close but we're not quite good enough. It's not like we advanced out of the group but were smoked by England and the Netherlands. It was a good, not great, Cup while also leaving tons of room for very attainable improvement. I’m satisfied. Improve and mature the existing squad. Find a couple forwards. Build your identity around MMA. 2026 will be fun.
-
I find it unacceptable that we got our assess beat by a black dude named Denzel. How is he not in our team?
-
They were! Enjoyed that dopamine.
-
Haji is a bad friend. Absolutely squandering Christian’s passing.
-
2026 Needs: Forwards Depth behind MMA Center backs Coach
-
Elite midfield. Solid defenders. Trash forwards.
-
My goodness Christian wants to win
-
Yedlin magic! All-time unintentionally perfect finish from Haji.

Are they ill or are they already making excuses because our team is the illest & they know they’re about to experience the shame of getting knocked out by yanks? Cowards!
