You did a wonderful job in getting Poch. He's exactly what we need to take this program forward.

Finally someone who can really help US soccer be a great team

[GunnerstahlY]

USSF finally doing something right on the Men's side. Next step, lower ticket prices for US fans so they will go to USMNT game instead of a NFL or NHL game.

That kid coming through going to city will carry the USA to a Copa America soon

Hmm. After hiring this coach, I'm beginning to think that the USSF/ MLS are finally taking the USMNT seriously. Hopefully John Brooks gets another opportunity at the national team. Like it or not, he still the best central defender in the current US player pool.

Poch doesn’t need to say “soccer”. You’re Argentinian. That’s what we wanted. A real deal foreign manager who has coached at the highest level possible. Just be you.

Let's be honest, the world isn't really going to take the USA seriously especially in the UK until they start calling it by it's proper football name, especially in international moments 🤷
But who knows maybe a proper coach like MP might actually have them playing football instead of Saturday soccer ⚽ 😂

The Poch will walk on water to deliver success to the USMNT! ……..ps I hope he wears a life preserver in the process.

Ready to turn another page... Fortune favors the bold

[scheck]

I've known (says his name incorrectly) for a long time!

Couldn’t even beat New Zealand … wow. Good thing the USMNT gets and AUTO in to the World Cup 26, otherwise they wouldn’t make it .. even with the expansion of teams.
