US Men's National Team (18 Viewers)

Wow. Davies claiming that part of the reason we can't get a big time coach is because we can't have too much of a pay discrepancy with the women's coach.

If true, we are literally the only country in the world where that would even be a consideration
 
This is like boys against men.

:wub:

If not for that CP howler and imo some strange reffing, it's a bloodbath. As it is... It's like the US is playing against a just trying to hold on Mex C team... And maybe they are.
I think people really are struggling to come to terms with how bad Mexico is and has been for a few years now.
Help is coming though, their U20 team looked great in the World Cup......

:sadbanana:
 
The geolocation piece seems a bit tacky to me. A player places a non-NFL bet in the parking lot of his training facility and its a 6 game ban but if he drives a quarter mile down the road and does it, its no infraction.
As a gov't employee you probably no the deal better than anyone else.
Yeah, I get it, but sportsbooks aren't reporting my locations to the government... Yet

Eta: there are also some nuances with what an employee can do on a government facility while on or off the clock. I don't know if/how that applies to the player's situations.

This half is not hurting Pulisic's transfer value at all :)
Or opening up some eyes to the talent they’ve been wasting

Didn't concede a goal
 
US playing way more patient than I remember recently. Kinda nice to see. Less stressful type of play, almost like the pressure is off. It's a different feel vs mex than in years past.
I think it's very apparent that we are on another level talentwise than Mexico now. In the past, Mexico was the most talented team in CONCACAF, but it's quite obvious that they're the little guy trying to punch up now(which is where we were for 20+ years). I honestly think Canada is more talented than them now.

I think it shows in how our players are playing too... We know we're better than them.
 
And tbh... Between Miles, Jedi and Richards, theres no viable distribution from the back, forcing one of the 3 MFs to drop deep. Get a better ball playing CB in there and omg.
 
I'm sorry, but the fact that the ****ing cowards at the USSF dropped this news right during the match shows that absolutely ZERO has changed in this corrupt federation. If you're gonna make this call, at least sack up and do it in a big way.
My Milan WhatsApp Patreon group is going wild. My friends around the world are literally laughing.

USMNT had zero intent on getting a new coach. Also American Outlaws have zero backbone as well and miss the Feds @$s over this.

I hope this blows up in their face. Is anyone who’s on USMNT still have their one free transfer country spot on the squad who are key because I hope they threaten to switch at this point. I know if I was team captain and best player there if I had it I’d threaten it. You bring this hot garbage tool back I’m out
If you follow things you would know they the players have been supporting this move

He's probably got a point. Imagine if GGG fails in the next 2 years and in 2025 Pep comes in and says he wants the job and we give him $12M a year..... you don't think there's a HUGE outcry from the "equal pay" supporters?

This is the first time I can remember looking at the lineup graphics and feeling like we were CLEARLY better. I get the Mexico is missing Chucky and Tecatito. And not playing Santi Jimenez, but Montes was pretty much the only guy who I thought would clearly start for the USMNT.

Then just give the USWNT coach a ****ing raise. This isn't that hard.
 
This equity in US Soccer is absolute BS no way should the salary of the Woman’s coach be elevated to what the Mens coach makes the gate we take in at World Cup dwarfs what the women take in at this World Cup. This equity is killing the USMNT.
 
Charlie Davies says that due to the equity regulations within US Soccer, the men’s team couldn’t hire someone like Pep Guardiola if they had the chance because they would have to pay the women’s coach a similar amount.

He essentially said that limits their options.

Doesn't matter. Just hire the best coach for the USMNT and then pay the women's coach the same. Life isn't fair. **** it. I just want to win.
 
I am sorry to say at these Internatonal tourneys the woman’s gate is minuscule compared to the men’s gate. This severely cuts into growing the Men’s game.
