@TheEricWaxman @TheBolivianYank Howard & peak Dempsey might have been top 100. Jermaine Jones was pretty good too.

@TheBolivianYank Poch made his comments about top 100 players, which he is not wrong about, but Klinsmann’s teams beat the Netherlands and Germany on European soil in back to back games with players like Mix Diskerud and Bobby Wood scoring goals. Point is it can be done and Jurgen proved that

Klinsmann doesn’t get enough praise for his 2014 WC side. If not for Jozy’s injury, I think we could have gone further than round of 16. The fact we made it out of the group with Portugal and Germany is an achievement all on its own. It’s insane. Klinsmann deserves more…

@julioordz10 These guys are Americans... and @ManagerTactical said MLS doesn't develop talent.

Por cierto, vaya atraco le dio la FMF a Estados Unidos con Obed Vargas y Brian Gutiérrez. Brian Gutiérrez de lo mejor de la fecha FIFA de marzo ante rivales como Portugal y Bélgica. Obed Vargas ya en Europa, jugando con el Atlético de Madrid con apenas 20 años y con un futuro tremendo. Mil gracias, Seattle Sounders y Chicago Fire.🇲🇽🤝🏼🇺🇸

@USMNTOtaku You left out B. Aaronson, so bring him over McGlynn instead of Roldan.

@USMNTOtaku Banks said no, so swap in Ream (not a starter, but experienced backup). Need a backup ARob, so Tolken for Campbell. Midfielders- swap out Musah for Berhalter. And drop McGlynn for Roldan.

My preferred USMNT squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. What’s yours?

@Dhaneye Him competing and looking decent against the Portugal midfield... that's actually a positive sign. He can play with the big boys. If he has a decent World Cup, expect a move to a Top 6 league, playing for a decent side.

According to FotMob ratings , Sebastian Berhalter is the best American player in MLS so far this season and he looked completely average or less than average against Belgium and Portugal . #USMNT

@BoomerRichey I know. What is with this guy?!?!?

Poch, in this USMNT window, gave us this: 1. Use 17 subs over two games. 2. Use a lineup with no staring CF. 3. Remind us we don't have the best players in the world. 4. and our players don't bring intensity 5. Remind us that we don't understand soccer culture. Thanks. 6M.

@USMNTnuisance @_captainpulisic that was a world class save

@_captainpulisic Didn’t make 1 save he shouldn’t have. Unimpressed by all our options

that’s our starting keeper no question

@EinSchwarzwelt It's not a stupid tackle if there was >50% chance that we get the ball there and are in a dangerous attacking spot. Look how wide open Pulisic is to receive a pass if they lose it.

@TemarcWinter You clearly don't know what you're talking about. Going to ground that quickly with a stupid tackle immediately takes you out of the sequence if the tackle doesn't make it in time.. That's not proper defending which is why going to ground is only done as a last resort.

Always too easy

@ProspectsUsmnt You'd have to go player by player. I'd guess it's 70 in EPL. 20 in LaLiga. 10ish between Germany/France.

@TemarcWinter So you must think 90 of them are from the Premier League?

This is nonsense. Pulisic has routinely made these lists in recent years. Two bad months of form doesn’t change that. Also McKennie is probably that right now. Jedi was pre-injury too. They have better players, but stop making excuses and demeaning the level of your own players.

@ProspectsUsmnt Yea- it's like 0-3 players

@TemarcWinter So you think there are like 1-5 players in Serie A that are top 100 in the world?

@Dhaneye This the result of a counterattack with the ball lost in far up in the midfield by Mckennie being dumb. Blaming it all on Morris/Berhalter is a joke. Jedi was the one most out of position, so if there's any blame it's on two of our cherished Euro players.

Berhalter and Aidan Morris no where to be found

@USMNTCORNER I thought Berhalter and Morris did a decent job against one of the best midfields in the world. They can't be scapegoated. Objectively, no one should freak out if either of them make it to the final roster.

Everyone wants to blame Roldan, Berhalter, & all the other MLSers. I get it. But understand this: I'm not defending them, but I am pointing out that this was the lineup that beat Uruguay 5-1. I think the bigger issue is how Poch sets us up. Not necessarily who's on the field.

@herculezg They are creating more opportunities than they would have under Gregg. We have more guys 10-20 competing for spots that have shown up at times.

USMNT Reaction to Belgium & Portugal. Mauricio Pochettino has run out of time, and between him and Gregg Berhalter, it feels like four years were wasted. #USMNT

@C_Derm @ConcacafEdgar No. Have you played soccer? There is a Portuguese defender that would intercept any pass on the ground (9/10 times). He could try and chip in the air to the furtherest up the field player- which is what he did, but it went over him.

@TemarcWinter @ConcacafEdgar There are 3 players that he could pass to right in front of him. Instead of looking up to see that no one is making a run he just clears the ball like he's a fullback under pressure.

World class pass by Christian “ Pirlo “ Roldan 🪄 #USMNT

@MicheleG3 Top 100 is highly debatable. He's trying to temper expectations and maybe motivate Pulisic.

While I agree with the most obvious statement that Portugal and Belgium have more individual talent than the USMNT… 1. What’s the point of saying this? 2. Pulisic is top 100. 3. Again, why say this?

@Jadentheman1 He had good touches on the ball in the limited time today. Can see him trying to orchestrate some stuff, but the match was too disjointed in the end to develop it out.

I worry about Gio Reyna's chances with the final roster. He played garbage minutes in both matches and barely has touched the ball or done anything. With his club play being near nonexistent I don't know if he'll make it 😢😢😢

@EdgarNAGs They never were a golden generation. There's more depth compared to past generations. (players 8-20), but not meaningfully better core guys than what we've had before.

I've been following the US Men's Soccer team for nearly 40 years. Considering the current pool of players from this "golden generation," this is the most disappointing team I've ever seen. What a waste of talent.

@ByDougMcIntyre This is a direct diss against Pulisic

#USMNT coach Mauricio Pochettino following tonight’s 2-0 loss to Portugal: “Belgium and Portugal both have top-100 players, some players playing that top 100. I think we don't have [that].”
