    OT: We may win the World Cup in 2026

    I see $98M from state and state residents. That’s a lot of money. I am steadfast against having all these foreign athletes at public schools

    OT: We may win the World Cup in 2026

    It’s stupid. Vermont taxpayers paying a full ride to a bunch of int’l players so they can feel good for a fairly lightly cared about sport? I lived near Uof VT for 2 years - it’s ALL about hockey hockey hockey

    OT: We may win the World Cup in 2026

    oh great, let's just litter soccer programs with non-US players like field hockey, volleyball, tennis, etc - let's just award state money from NJ taxpayers in scholarships, free this and that to more and more foreigners. No please!!!!!!!!! And also a slap in the face of Title IX goals -...

    OT: All things US Soccer / Int’l Soccer Thread

    Thinking we start a new thread as the World Cup is long past! let’s use this for all things about US Soccer and Int’l Soccer in general. First off, news that UEFA and Concacaf want to merge their Nations League is the best thing that could happen to the USMNT program. It’s a marriage made in...

    OT: We may win the World Cup in 2026

    Not so sure about a couple of your points soocce is by far bigger than rugby so you can’t assume those guys chose soccer because it’s less physical. Maybe, maybe not. It’s like choosing to be and NFL or NBA star here vs. soccer. Soccer here is like rugby there basically. The German Football...

    OT: We may win the World Cup in 2026

    Meanwhile US U-20 men rolling through Concacaf and now in the final vs Mexico 7pm today. Think it’s on FS2 we’ve already qualified for the U-20 WC Poch needs to look at kids in this and the ‘28 Olympics to see who can step up to the MNT but some if our best young guys probably won’t play on...

    OT: We may win the World Cup in 2026

    We can compete with most African teams - not Morocco though and we can compete with mid-bottom South America We struggle vs any decent Euro team How do we fix? Extremely complicated and difficult as it’s a cultural, process and system problem Youth development in Hickey excels and our...

    OT: We may win the World Cup in 2026

    Many analaysts says we gad an athletic and fast team. That wasn’t our problem. It was skill, first touch, nose for the goal, tactics, movement off the ball…these things are more important than better athletes. McKennie, Freeman, Bologun, Pulisic, Richards, Jedi, Weah - these guys are all really...

    OT: We may win the World Cup in 2026

    You can’t compare number of medals - due it per capita. We have 330 million people or even more - you have to be fair and when Soviet Union competed they got more medals than we in summer games

    OT: We may win the World Cup in 2026

    I am not convinced this is our top problem. There is this argument that if super athletic nba and nfl guys played soccer we’d be so much better - most nba players are too tall except guards - most nfl players to talk and big Messi is want 5-6? Mbaope isn’t that big nor is Neymar, Robaldinho...

    OT: We may win the World Cup in 2026

    Only if you make the Carli Lloyd WC magician goal from midfield worth 3 goals. That’s still one of the amazing spots seats in a major competition I’ve ever seen - and it was one of ours!!!!

    OT: We may win the World Cup in 2026

    Better have huge buyout/walkout amount and I mean huge as leaving early could screw us but if we are paying a lot this is a cushy job for him. Not so many matches, less pressure than a top club he gets to influence the whole us soccer system and make a mark Really wonder what he does roster...

    OT: We may win the World Cup in 2026

    He’s signed up so you think he breaks contract and bolts or we fire him like Berhalter? I mean if we don’t win the gold cup and nations league then do they stick with him?

    OT: We may win the World Cup in 2026

    Enormous news! He has a full cycle now to work with this team. And retained his staff can’t wait to see what they can do and I’m sure he’s going to compete every spot so nobody should assume they are in for 2030
