Today in Barcelona, ??the agreement for Mauricio Pochettino to be the coach of the US national team is expected to be finalized. A message will even be recorded for him to be broadcast when it is officially announced, which could be this afternoon. He will not be in Kansas tomorrow for the match against Canada, but he is expected on Tuesday in Cincinnati, where he will watch the game against New Zealand. He will debut in Austin against Panama on October 12, three days before his first classic against Mexico in Guadalajara.

?? EXCL: Select US Soccer executives are flying to Barcelona to finalize the agreement on Friday with Mauricio Pochettino to become the next #USMNT head coach.
The plan is to record Pochettino in an announcement video to be released Friday or Saturday.

Given the current time in Barcelona, it is very likely that Pochettino has signed his contract, and is now the new manager of the #USMNT
Incredible.

I would imagine this gets announced tomorrow before or during the USMNT vs Canada Game.
Coincidentally, Jesse Marsch seems butt hurt by the USMNT right now.

This would be so dumb from a marketing perspective, but with how they handled the Gregg re-hiring, it'd be par for the course from USSF

It's three days later, and still NOTHING. I begin to think it's all a smokescreen and he is not coming at all.

Would be a deathblow for the USMNT if they are leaking a name like Poch, and then hire some unknown.
No chance that is what is happening.
I think what is happening is that we jumped the gun on leaking the Poch news where he agreed in principle, but nothing was signed, so now Poch's agency is being smart as shite and holding a gun to the USSF for even more money/autonomy because they know just how stupid they will look if Poch isn't announced after all this.

This is the most US Soccer thing ever.

Careful they don't want people reporting this type of information.

Has Poch and Chelsea worked out their end yet?
I thought that was the hold up.
Who’s more incompetent Chelsea’s new owners or USSF?

Because NBC only has the spanish rights.
Turner has the english rights.

Guess I didn’t realize that. No issues just had to switch apps and resign back into TNT since I never use it.

So who do we think is going to be Poch's "random" call-up for his first camp just to show the fans that he's different?
Every coach has one.
Jurgy called up Robbie Rogers for his first match against Mexico.
Gregg's first camp was a cupcake camp, but he called in Dan Lovitz for his first international break camp.

He’s bringing Run DMB back as assistant coach/player and it’s going to be beautiful

Did the USMNT just hire a legitimate coach!?!?!????????
WC 2026 champs???
Edit: what’s the legitimate expectation for ‘26? Make it out of the group and into the knockouts and anything past that is just gravy!?

So the same as it has always been? Actually, making it out of the group just the new round of 32 would be below what are usually World Cup expectations are i.e. top 16
The expectation should be higher than that. We should be shooting for a quarterfinal run at the very least. But our player pool needs a refresh in a bad way.
