Pochetino set to become next

Massive name. Is he right for job?

Shocking that any USMNT fan is against this. Amazing hire if true

[@andrewhetes1623]

I don’t know you could be against this unless you’re clueless. The best manager available. Who else COULD USMNT even try to get? They’re not a destination and their admin is poisoned. Back up the Brinks truck and get him.

[@mdfrenchy]

I think Herc missed the mark with two criticisms. First of all, he saw as a negative that Pochettino hasn't won anything big and Herc wants that track record. What do you think the USMNT can win that they haven't already won? A World Cup? If you're standard is the coach has to take the USMNT to win the World Cup, good luck finding that mythical coach. Reasonable hopes are for the US to make the Quarters, or maybe even the Semis (although that may be pie in the sky). Pochettino has succeeded to that level enough to validate his hire, if it happens. Secondly, it's unfair to criticize a coach who has had excellent players. Teams that have excellent players typically get to pick from the best of the best for coach. And if Mauricio was hired multiple times to coach teams with outstanding talent, that means he's considered an outstanding coach worthy of that talent. That's a plus, not a negative.

About fucking time. Now let’s do this

You're hyped over Pochettino? He is literally the Argentinean version of Greg Bellhalter lol, Hasn't done anything important. lmao went from worse to bad.

[@omarbriseno4584]

@@johndamario2546 It be disrespectful if i attribute achievements that he didn't fullfill to make em seem what he isn't. Tell me some atributes that are known to Poch...He got sacked from Espanyol when he was at the verge of being descended from LaLiga, Went to South Hampton as an urgent buy. Had good games but was still doing bad numbers. Went to Spurs and had only 1 good season which was the 2016/2017 which showed once again that his team chokes in important matches.

[@1972dsrai]

Thats true. He’d definitely be a huge improvement, but do think his lack of experience in international tournament football might work against him. Its definitely a gamble with the wc only two years away. Still think someone like Renard would be a better bet.

[@davidpainter7458]

His mentor is Bielsa who is coach of Uruguay so I bet that helped him understand how to have success in the international game vs the difference with club teams.

[@DJKoolHerc]

Bielsa coached Argentina when Pochettino played under him at the WC. Bielsa discovered Poch at 13.

They couldn’t be more different. Poch had never overachieved and he won’t with the USMNT

Best manager we ever had on paper but ultimately the games aren't played on paper.

[@watchgagootz]

I agree with the trophy mark. However, who are we? We ain’t nobody in the world of soccer. We are a concacaf team.There are better teams in the world than the USA.

[@1972dsrai]

The US job is not a once in a life time opportunity for a lot of coaches. Most aren’t interested in international football unless over a certain age and looking for a less demanding job.

[@xaviergough9359]

USMNT needs to set realistic standards. You will not win a World Cup with this guy, Klopp, Ancelotti, Pep, or any other luxury name you throw in. Can they make the team competitive? Absolutely. Canada has a poorer team and actually performed great at Copa America.

[@DavidMartinez-bv6zu]

He is a great option. I think there could be issues such as lack of knowledge with US and the MLS, but he is the best candidate. The USMNT needs to get that extra push with a coach with extensive European experience. A manager with deep tactical knowledge can take this team to next level and I believe Pochettino can provide that.

[@GarciaGrandPrix]

Will instantly be more hyped if true!

[@BC-th3mx]

Couldn't get past the last 16 with Messi, Neymar, Mbappe, I'm sure he can go further with crappy US players 😂🤣

USSF backed itself into a deep hole, so while not perfect, MP would be a huge win all things considered.

[@diegogarcia8244]

Mercenario

[@TheWordTheWay]

Herc what’s up! Props! Get Poch

[@1972dsrai]

No doubt he would be a huge improvement on Berhalter, but still think there are better options. You really need someone who’s coached a national team in a major tournament. Someone like Renard for example.

[@1972dsrai]

I don’t know if Poch is the best choice considering he’s never coached a national team or have any experienced of tournament football. 2026 isn’t far off and he won’t have much time with the team. Someone like Renard is still a better option.

[@xaviergough9359]

Renard would have been an interesting choice, but Poch has experience in top tier football and with the egos in the locker room. He's earned a chance at international football coaching.

[@acruzro95]

Trophy wise he was not gonna win at spurs and southgampton and this version of Chelsea so is hard to tell

[@theaquariancontrarian3316]

Oh no not an argentine! We all saw what happened with tata Martino in Mexico 🤦‍♂️

[@amine15777]

Mexico dont have a good squad like usa , plus poch is a better manager tata martino

[@xaviergough9359]

Poch's style is closer to Bielsas. Martino failed in Mexico because the player pool was absolutely poor. You could bring Pep to the Mexican national team and they'd barely improve. The quality simply isn't there.

[@goblue8410]

Who ever disagrees with this is the minority. 93% of fans are happy/excited with this signing.

[@josefradetzky4246]

The sad reality is that no top manager in their right mind would ever come to the USMNT

[@Life0fBri]

Just another name drop to keep us engaged. "In talks" doesn't mean much. I mean, they already have an interim manager for the Fall friendlies

[@1972dsrai]

I do agree throwing names like Klopp and Pep around has increased expectations among US fans and now if they end up with someone with a lower profile it will be seen as a down grade even if they might be the right choice. Will they therefore be given a fair crack at it?

[@xaviergough9359]

No, they are at an advanced stage of negotiations. He will be presented before the friendlies if he agrees to the terms.

[@DJKoolHerc]

@herculez gomez I would bet Poch turns down England without much thought so he can go back home to Argentina without being a target of extremists. ¿Recuerdas Las Malvinas?

Their is no good looking play with him, Spurs was playing like a ultra defending low level club. Couldn't handle a Good Team when he was in his PSG era. The teams that he manages end up flopping badly when the team is down by one or two goals and can't handle a 1 or 2 goal lead in very important matches.

Not having a playstyle is a good thing, it means he's pragmatic and not blinded by a system
