[@SinistarFirefox]

Finally we have a REAL coach. Let's go USA! 🇺🇲 😎

[@drhansen75]

I think Pochettino is a huge step forward for US soccer…

[@maitosass6995]

Can’t wait to see this new system. Excited for the usmnt future with poch!

[@Tyzer3031]

Poch saying “soccer” is just everything you need to hear ❤

[@rayes7331]

Yep, not a good sign 😂

[@steviesoprano]

@@rayes7331 its a great sign

[@jhonnycifuentes6638]

About time I’ve been waiting all my life for a coach of this caliber one of the best head soccer coaches of the world, Mauricio Pochettino good luck coach

[@maximusprimus827]

I can’t wait for our first game with Poch as our coach.

[@bpbrowning78]

He’s as good as we could’ve hoped for. Real quality. Let’s go

[@BrianThompson-IT]

Poch, you call it what you feel comfortable. Football, Soccer.. doesn't matter. We just want a winning culture where the players fight for you and the badge.

[@joseflemire4284]

Personality is underestimated in coaching prowess...this guy has the personal confidence and gravitas to give the USMNT its best shot at success

[@lilpradabagxz]

I love how he repeats the word “passion” & “belief” because that’s one thing the US lacks.. we have the quality and depth with decent players but most of them lack fighting for the badge and country

[@Ftball10]

As an American, I became a Chelsea fan a few years ago because of Pulisic, stayed because of Palmer, and watched Pochettino develop the boys at Chelsea last season into a killing machine well on its way to Premiership dominance. Will never forget the penalty kick incident against Everton with Palmer, Madweke and Jackson. What a group! Poch dealt with a chaotic-seeming Chelsea Leadership with class and always respected the fans, even as he left. Players with the quality with which Pochettino is accustomed to working are few and far between in the United States, and seeing that change-- more world class products-- would be my biggest hope for U.S. soccer in the near-to-midterm future. Oh, and maybe we could create a promotion/relegation system in the United states! Good luck Coach Pochettino.

[@Gerson84]

Let’s go poch!!!!

[@steez54321]

Very excited to see what he can do

[@sino7]

WishIng you the best Poch. COYS.

[@BiscuitsMcGravy]

I'm so exciting to have a coach like Pochettino.

[@giodhuha6771]

Bro was forced to say "soccer" 😭

[@NickWaves]

I think it is important to highlight that Mauricio belongs to a generation (1970s) were people didn't really learned english unless they needed to for job reasons or life circumstances. I'm also argentine, like him, but born in the 80s and my parents already had a different mindset about the importance of english or speaking a second language. His english is rough around the edges but he tries and that's already something to be mentioned.

[@zealachebe2930]

finally we have a coach

[@gpjc19]

I want that polo

[@joseflemire4284]

I hope he will bring in Jermaine Jones as the American assistant coach...Intelligence and intensity and understanding of the players

[@RickActual]

Lisan Al Gaib! Haha. We’re very happy you are here!

[@tannerbinyontraining]

This is the most underrated comment I’ve ever stumbled across 🤣

[@RickActual]

@@tannerbinyontrainingThanks. I think most people don’t understand the reference.

[@tylerleggett5088]

Still shocked we were able to get someone the caliber of pochettino. Hopefully he can establish a culture and take us a step forward in the world cup

[@SportsBuilding]

He’s already calling it soccer. We’re going to be just fine, folks 🇺🇸

[@iamsonexay]

It's great to see Pochettino get this job I hope he will reach the United states soccer national team to qualify all the international competition best luck Pochettino ❤❤❤

[@DremianBlades-cx5lj]

Next world cup it's played at home soil. The USMNT already has a spot in the competition. He came to take the USMNT to the next level in world class competitions.

You can say football, it's cool with us

[@palatialslumlord4938]

Maurice Little is his name in English

[@ladraff9702]

Just say football. We prefer calling it football too

[@tombo9018]

Love it just hope they didnt make him call it soccer people should call it what they want lol just a small insignificant concern but either way im so hyped for this appointment

[@InternationalScoop]

i mean most of us fans say football anyways lol

[@tombo9018]

​@InternationalScoop yeah true just find it hilarious how serious people get over what it's called some serious gatekeepers around the world, really doesn't matter though.

[@lilpradabagxz]

@@tombo9018facts people think just cuz they grew up in Europe then that automatically makes them a football encyclopedia

[@AndroidEighty8]

has anyone told poch how much the federation are charging for tickets? if he wants to feel the support, you can’t price out a large part of your fanbase

[@jvphelan1]

Our $6M man. Exciting.

[@hussienalsafi1149]

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Go USA

[@straycatnip]

Good luck getting those slackers to play with heart and pride.

[@JackJackJack123]

Pochettino doesn’t have to call it “soccer”. He’s Argentinian. Just be authentic. We want the real deal.

[@hardycampbell]

Many of Poch's new US fans will soon realize why he got canned from Spurs and PSG; he takes a talented pool of players and gets them to underperform consistently. His decision to prioritize Panama over Mexico is the beginning of his disconnect with Americans.

[@BilboFaggins]

Are they making him say soccer ?

[@SinistarFirefox]

Right? Lol. Just let the man say football/futbol.

[@CMBrickhouse]

Coach Poch, you can say football. We all know what you mean, it's cool, fam. You get a pass.

Speak American. Can't understand your accent....

[@dutdut2.091]

Shut the hell up

[@UU.002]

As long as American call it soccer. They are not going anywhere

[@moloko5]

Why are you stupid? Did you hit your head?

[@brozismacks8219]

Soccer was developed by the English. We just used it since they created it.

[@steppingrock]

@@brozismacks8219 True

[@Interxlinked]

Getting a foreigner to couch the USA team that’s really sad from the national team
