I think that, if not by now, then the USA will never be a consistent force in international soccer.

The sport just does not attract the top athletes as it does in all of the other countries.

There will be upsets here and there, but I don’t see the USA ever getting to the finals much less winning.

It’s just the way it is

Well, you would think that is so given the way everybody gets so hyped up thinking the US can compete in international play except for every 20 or 30 years or so.

Talking shite to fellow Americans who want a competitive American team.

That’s cool, I guess.

Absolutes are never not annoying, as if you have a crystal ball or a fricking time machine or something.

America has 360 million people (45 million black people) and the largest GDP in the world. You don't have to get all the top athletes. We're not Belgium. You just have to get some of the best athletes, and have a leader with the right vision.

only people who think this are casuals who don’t watch. Thought we had a chance but knew the defense was going to be a major issue. Anyone who watches this national team knew the defense was horrible
