Given the circumstances, I'm imagining him getting confrontational with Gregggg in practice, in which case I'm not saying he should've done that, but I understand. /chrisrockgougler08 said:
Wtf did Mckennie do to get benched for 2 games?

how the **** does he think Yueill is the player to add, especially after how the gold cup went. I just dont get Berhalter, man.H.E. Pennypacker said:
So, Berhalter has called in a 3rd string GK and Jackson Yueill.
I'm out on him. I don't know what the strategy/grand vision is in his head, but I don't see it at all. We've won some games based on effort and fortuitous goals. We haven't really threatened with consistency.
He has taken in the first two games and decided the answer is.Jackson Yueill. I don't get it at all.

I'm waiting for him to drop Sargent and call up Gyasi.
I mentioned this during the match, he pretty quickly got involved in play and had some nice touches and a few threatening runs. Much more so than anyone else involved in the attack at that point in the match at least.jeffk said:
I did think Sargent looked better as a sub than a starter last night. Too bad it was only for like eight minutes.

I know someone said it earlier, but they simply will not go after Berhalter. Its always the players fault and while they are also to blame, they're are playing in one of the most ineffective offensive schemes out there right now.Mathguy64 said:
Listening to the Football Show and oh boy. Landon let loose on McKennie. Called him selfish and unprofessional for his actions. Tony Meola ripped all the players for being sloppy. He didn't call them hacks but it was close. Lots of dirty laundry got aired. If they don't get 3 points Wednesday the knifes will be out.
There is zero chance that 19 and 21 year old kids know more than Gregg Berhalter. Sure, I guess it is a possibility that they are arrogant and have that feeling, but your line "(and probably do)" is laughable.oh no said:
I wonder if a bigger problem than tactics right now for Greggg is many of the first choice players come over from Europe too big for their britches and they don't respect him. You can feel it when some of these players speak. Superstars Reyna and Pulisic think they know more than Gregg (and probably do) and players feed off of it. Gio already demonstrates a bad attitude on the pitch, McKennie thought he could do whatever he wants. That's on Greggg for not earning these players' respect. Secondly, how much have the players gotten too cocky based off the Nations League trophy and the Gold Cup trophy and thought they could waltz into the world cup? - that mentality would be on Greggg too. Thirdly, I wonder how much players born and raised as non-Americans but play for USMNT, such as Brooks and Pefok, really want to even be there getting concacaf'd- that would also be on Greggg for not recognizing it and correcting it or choosing different players in what is becoming a pretty deep and talented pool for USA. All three are non-tactical issues that Greggg is responsible for.

just heard Donovan's statement, he said he is privy to what happened and that Weston's relationship with the rest of the team is almost beyond repair. wow.
That was my thought as well. Stupid to do when you are just here for 3 games in one week with lots of travel and everything else going on in the world.Legal Custodian said:
Probably just snuck a chick into the team hotel or something
It's not exactly a prestigious title though is it? Its one previously held by esteemed know-nothings like Gregg Berhalter and Bob BradleyQuote:
That's damning. He's the best American coach in Europe (at RB Leipzig).

Thats fine, and I agree. Even if they didnt know anything, they're so young they probably think they know everything.oh no said:
I mean, with Reyna being son of pro / coach and Pulisic being son of coach and both playing in some of the biggest clubs in the world, no doubt they think they know more than their international team coach. They think they're being tactful, but you can almost feel it when they speak to media. I don't think they like Greggg.
Hire him now. He's always said he wants to coach the Nats.TamuKid said:
