Yeah but the ceiling was potentially higher
Happy with 4 of 5 cup games. Yes more could have been done. Wasn’t perfect. But winning a knockout game down a player was big.
Backups going well against Turkey
Grinding out Australia. Whipping Paraguay.
We had four performances that we usually are lucky to get 2 of in a cup.

So Poch gets credit for this, but Gregg gets no credit for us outplaying England?

when you have your captain and goalie from MLS, you don't have the same edge

Would have never bet on him returning. Was convinced he would be gone after the WC.
Love to be wrong about this. Let's ride.

We’ve been a 3rd tier team for a couple cycles, if Poch can stick around for the entirety of the contract, elevate us into a 2nd tier type team in the next cycle (5-10 ranking) and win the domestic trophies, I will consider it a success,

I'm interested to see what he can do with a full cycle. More time to fully vet the pool and integrate the next generation. Doesn't have to spend time on his "cultural reset".

My biggest con is recruitment of dual nationals.
In 2024 Poch said that he didn't feel the need to push players too hard to represent the USMNT.
"We don't need to convince [players]," Pochettino said. "A player needs to want to play for the national team."
We are not a hot bed of developing talent in USA.
Even nations like Germany France Morocco etc have dual nationals.
Yamal is a dual narional.
Some of our best players are dual nationals.

"A player needs to want to play for the national team."
It is a two way street though, some of those dual nat's who get looked over have a big chip on their shoulder, and a desire to prove everyone wrong.
