@ldock93 Curtin should not have his first job in two years be a national team job. Schmetzer deserves it, but I think he would want a World Cup run, which I doubt they would give. That leaves Steve Cherundolo as the most likely option.

The next US manager is going to be one of three people: Jim Curtin, Steve Cherundolo, or Brian Schmetzer

Mauricio #Pochettino will leave #USA National Team after the World Cup. He has been offered to #ACMilan by an intermediary in the last hours. #transfers

@USNTconnoisseur I am actually gonna lose it if fans keep complaining about the roster choices. IT IS DONE. NOW ROOT FOR THE TEAM. WE DON'T NEED OUR OWN FANS DISSING OUR PLAYERS!!!

@USMNTTAKES If Johnny didn’t get injured roldan would’ve got a email saying you ain’t going to the World Cup
English
What are some hot takes you have about the USMNT World Cup roster now that it’s official?

Born in Liverpool, England and representing the United States...
Antonee Robinson is heading to the FIFA World Cup 2026!

@ElBorregoal What was being asked of Gk'ers over the last decade has changed.... Our training never did.
So the world requires their gk'ers to play with their feet, and our gk'ers curl up in the fetal position at just the thought of it.

What happened to the US goalkeeper production? They used to produce legit keepers.

🚨🇺🇸 OFFICIAL: USA release their World Cup squad.
Surprise, AZ 🇺🇸 English
@Gregfontaine712 @csett13 There are no healthy defensive midfielders. He is the best option they got
English
The three biggest takeaways from the WC squad:
1. The midfield depth is horrendous without Johnny Cardoso and Tanner Tessmann
2. Weston Mckennie most likely is now forced to play deeper in the midfield which takes him out of his best position which would’ve been behind Balogun further forward
3. Not necessarily the wrong decision but after his Gold Cup performance less than a year ago it is shocking to not see Luna in this squad
U.S. Soccer Men's National Team@USMNT
Here to chase legacy on home soil. Mauricio Pochettino has selected the 26 players to represent the United States this summer.
English
@ManagerTactical Roldan is the only defensive midfielder in that list of players
English
Pochettino mentioned that
Gio Reyna, Roldan, Berhalter, McKennie and Tillman could play as defensive midfielders in the World Cup.
English
@langle_16 @geneo1v @JustinHerbertLA @USMNT His form recently is definitely concerning. He was much better last year tbh
English
From Pico Rivera, CA...
Cristian Roldan is heading to the FIFA World Cup 2026!
English
English
@Prime_Garza @USMNT As a winger, yes. As a 6, no. He has been way better since transitioning to a defensive midfielder.
English
@USMNT And there it is. The shot in the heart. The worst player I’ve ever seen represent our country.
English
@geneo1v @JustinHerbertLA @langle_16 @USMNT Yeah, he is absolutely shit at winger. I can see why everyone hates him. That being said, he is wayyyy better at the 6
English
English
@ManagerTactical They are saying that Tessman is actually healthy enough to play. Still mindblown by his exclusion
English
English
@USMNTOtaku @HenryBushnell It’s not entirely clear THAT Tessman was omitted into the roster becomes official
English
It’s not entirely clear why Tanner Tessmann was omitted from the USMNT 2026 FIFA World Cup roster, but it’s briefed that the muscle injury he picked up earlier in May was no concern regarding his World Cup availability.

@A_Jude @ByTimBooth This doesn't make much sense. They are losing their MLS team due to a lack of ownership and buyers. This won't happen
English
@gashaw_hailu @DaveTweet176908 @DukeOfZamunda You can't compare the attendance of one top club. Look at the average of every team. 15th highest attendance in MLS is 20,000. 15th highest in La liga is 17000.
English
@GErickson31435 @DaveTweet176908 @DukeOfZamunda I’m sure there are but they pale in comparison to European teams. Real Madrid packs 100K fans for games, does the MLS even crack 40K? Also I have to push back on “strong academy programs”, otherwise the USA would be a lot better in world cups than they have.
English
Americans dont like the MLS cause the players arent good. Not bc it doesnt have gimmicks
Adam Booker@abooker17
MLS is poor at attracting American soccer fans who wake up every Saturday morning at 7am to watch hours of European football, and that’s an audience they need to capture in this country. The last thing they should do is make the sport unrecognizable to the rest of the world.
English
@gashaw_hailu @DaveTweet176908 @DukeOfZamunda There are some really passionate MLS fanbases, such as the Sounders, and most MLS clubs have strong academy programs. All of the best academy players just work their way up fast and then get sent to Europe.
English
@DaveTweet176908 @DukeOfZamunda Europe: better players, larger & more passionate fan base, historic venues/clubs steeped with tradition. Plus european clubs have academies that source talent from a very young age which strengthens their ties with the community, something the MLS doesn’t currently do

@untiliretvrn I get not liking these artists, but not seeing the vision is crazy for most of these artists
English
@ELROLONW I feel like Tino is the obvious starter. Let Alex rest.
English
Alex Roldan is now doing work separately from the group but it is a positive to at least see him out on the training field.
With Kim Kee-hee, Stu Hawkins and Tino Lopez all fighting for minutes I wonder if the #Sounders can afford to not rush him back.
Niko Moreno@ELROLONW
Wednesday training session for the #Sounders as they try to move on from a beyond disappointing loss to #LAGALAXY Alex Roldan is the notable absent player so far. We will ask Brian Schmetzer for an update on Alex and if he'll make it for this weekend's game vs #LAFC
English
@jamesinho4 @clousefoor @NoahRiffe He still deserve a chance. Had better stats than kingston, brunell, tino lopes, gomez. I know that stats are not really relevent for midfield and defense but 18 goals got to mean something. All those guys got chances except Yu
English
@clousefoor @GErickson31435 @NoahRiffe I think he needs to go out on loan somewhere in USL. Next Pro to MLS is a gigantic leap, and we don't have the killer DPs who can carry ex-Defiance guys while they level up.

🇳🇮 Seattle Sounders midfielder Sebastián Gómez became the first Nicaraguan to play in MLS according to La Prensa, a newspaper in Nicaragua.
The 19-year-old made his debut in the final minutes of a 2-0 loss to the LA Galaxy. Gómez has roots in Canada, Nicaragua and the United States making him eligible for all 3 national teams.
La Prensa added that the coaching staff of the Nicaraguan U-20 national team are interested in the player.

@ChartTwink Yeah I don't think they want 50 million in dead money

23-27. can we just DFA castillo and get it over with already
