re: You know what a 4-0 victory against Guatemala means?

I have been moderate when it comes to jurgen. I have defended him on this forum. I even think that this cycle has mirrored many other WCQF cycles before for the USMNT. I dont think he is a terrible manager, I dont think he is exceptional either. It is probably time for him to go next cycle regardless.

What I cant accept is the regression in our youth national team ranks. I hear people talk about Jurgen stepping down and taking over the technical director role and that frightens me far more than him steering the inevitable ship barely escaping the group for the US in the next WC. This man has no real understandings of the unique nature and dynamic at play ion the youth ranks. He talks about culture change but does nothing at the grass roots to facilitate that change.

frick it. Momentum is being lost for this sport in the US and its pretty frustrating.
