Interesting take on the lack of quality in the US team
Commonly called a Golden Generation because enough players are now playing in big european leagues that they can pick a team that includes 0 MLS players. The problem is none of those players are particularly important to the club they play for meaning that while they might be deeper than Canada or Uruguay, they dont have anything like the same top end quality.
They’ll have to join the queue behind England, Belgium, etc.
Canada beat the US last night, which was supposedly their first win in the US for 60 years.
The best bit about the trajectories these two sides have been on recently is how salty a bitch Marsch continues to be about it, and I fully support that
Spot on. The rehiring of Berhalter, when Marsch was there to had, was another gaffe by US Soccer. Now, it looks like Pochettino is on the way in, and he may get a tune out of these players, but disregarding Marsch was a mistake,IMO. But, Earnie and Gregg are besties, so…
At least Stewart is gone now. We’ll see if Crocker can put together a program that will lead to developing some top level talent.
It was technically Crocker who rehired Berhalter 
If I am looking for mitigation, that decision was taken very soon after he was appointed so it appears a lot of what happened in the time since Berhalter’s previous contract ran out was conducted by others.
What I can see of the timeline
IMO it was not a mistake.
Marsch is the biggest blowhard in global football…and you can see it in how he continues to deal with the issue. Its always about self aggrandizement. You saw it in the publication of the HT talk at Anfield while with Salzburg.
Tactically, his teams are as organized as a squad of headless chickens!
There’s a certain sense of entitlement among ex USMNT players who are pundits or coaches that is very harmful to the USMNT program. And the worst example of it was in the Reyna/Berhalter issue.
Hiring Poch is the best thing Crocker could ever do…
