I’m no coaching expert, but from hearing Thierry’s TV commentary, he seems like the kind of guy who knows exactly what he wants (and he is definitely articulate and knowledgeable) but can’t convey those ideas to his team effectively probably because of impatience or inability to improve players.

[@hengineer]

I've noticed it's often difficult for the most talented instinctual players to transition to become coaches/teachers.

[@SilverKen15]

lmfao what a weird comment

[@Drakerson]

Could be a possibility. I would give Henry some leeway considering these are young players who he probably doesn’t have a lot of time to work with. Which also means they might still make young player mistakes since they’re still learning their trade. Not to say giving a 2 goal lead is a good thing. Just hoping adding some context might explain what happen or give a different view. I’d also need to watch the game to see how France played because it could’ve been a situation where the US just knicked a tie.

[@int_int_int_int_int_int_int]

@@SilverKen15every team Henry has managed has been insanely mid, wtf you talking about. It's a totally fair assessment.

[@LY3355]

@@hengineerabsolutely. I remember the analogy I n Baseball, Barry Bonds is famously another who became a batting coach and would tell players how to see the ball and hit and say that’s it. That’s all you got to do, but the players would say he didn’t really coach them. And that they wanted more.

[@mrvee5395]

It seems to me that if Ricardo Pepi's minutes at Copa America are likely to be at best very limited (IE he's behind Balogun and one of Sargent/Wright), it would make a lot of sense sending him to the Olympics since he's age eligible and wouldn't count as overage.

[@KalvinPatel]

Yea I can see that for sure

[@cohoanglervancouverwa6755]

Wow. If Richardo is eligible for the Olympics (not overage), put him there! He’s an experienced striker (sort of) that would do quite well.

[@dirks6550]

Yeah we have 6 nine's currently in the pot for US Soccer (Balogun, Pepi, Sargent, Wright, Pefok, and Vasquez). All of them can't make the COPA squad. One of the odd men out should be on the olympic team.

[@SwatBeatsOfficial]

Our U.S. young bucks showed the fight and grit the U.S. was always known for, but now we actually have some talent to back it up. Very proud of these boys. Good depth in this squad too.

[@LifeofKiDD]

I'm liking how the culture for U.S. Futbol is changing though

[@Nitrousedstang]

These U.S. players need playing time with some of the señior squad in the next gold cup! Just as Reyna, Pulisic got some time, we need to push more of these players to Europe ASAP!

[@JJ-nu8qi]

The problem is our starters need those reps. Maybe the next camp cupcake should be exclusively these guys.

[@tonieplacide-oy4xx]

Man i love so much Cade Cowell.he got a monster space. He needs a mentor to polish his game. The boy is a killer

[@ZizouZico]

This was great experience for the US guys, regardless of what happens at the tournament. They played a very talented team in front of a good crowd, which isn’t always the case for U23s and such.

[@JeanClaudeCOCO]

Great experience because they’ll face the host in an even Rokus atmosphere in France at the end of July.

[@rxl1079]

Cherki was roasting our midfield and defense.

[@drjasonfreeman]

Great result for USA, but this draw is actually better for France because after that they won't take any side lightly, including the U.S. in the Olympics.

[@samplingmastersxlr8660]

It goes both ways here

[@wuxiagamescentral]

Going to Mexico was big for Cade. Hopefully he can add some more technique to his game while there and make the next step to Europe soon

[@turkeyman631]

Not that I care about the result of a friendly, but that penalty call seemed a bit weird to me. The fact that he gave him the opportunity to get his shot off and missing before actually calling it. Wouldn't it either be an advantage or a penalty? not both?

[@heyah1447]

Rayan Cherki is the difference maker for the France u23’s. Ivory Coast we’re dominating until he got subbed on

[@karlstriepe8050]

Send Pepi, Musah and Reyna. They're all sitting on the bench anyway. Plus you could add players actually over the age last minute upon if available..

[@KalvinPatel]

Reyna won’t be sitting on the bench for Copa (unless Ggg continues being dumb)

[@whenisdinner2137]

Reyna is not sitting on the bench 😂

[@bathingapp891]

musah and reyna are not going to be on the bench.

@@KalvinPatelhe means at their clubs

[@KalvinPatel]

ohhh right right, my bad. As far as those three being on the Olympics, I would still say no on Reyna cuz he belongs with the Senior starters for Copa. Pepi is the best option for Olympics if everyone is healthy and if he is still behind Balo, Wright. All depends on the rest of April, May and who comes in healthy @@xowormsfan1

[@markwatson2893]

I’d take 2 CB’s Miles Robinson+Austin Trusty and Johnny Cardoso as my overage players. Then I’d bring Pepi, Tillman and possibly Musah since they are age eligible and might not play huge roles in Copa America

[@AkihaTohno]

1:39 I have never once heard someone pronounce Loudoun like that lmao

[@inelhuayocan_aci]

It's just not the important to know. As far as anyone from there should be concerned, at least the name is in someone's mouth.

[@AkihaTohno]

​@@inelhuayocan_aci It's commonly cited as the richest county in the country so I would have thought the name was more well known

[@reggiebanks7627]

I had never heard of a Loudon before in my life and I’m still confused as to what it is or where it is. So no no on me outside of that area has heard of it.

You need Gio reyna pepi and a Guy like aaronson the Other brother

His name is John tolkin and not loyd 😅 my bad

[@davidt3956]

I'm tired of the Mbappe saga in the pro's, but the thought of him in the Olympics is amazing to imagine.

[@andysvt8]

The disrespect for Brandon Vazquez is crazy. He should 100% be the over age striker on this squad. Brian McBride doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

[@zachmoney716]

Is there a reason we aren’t sending our best players to represent at the Olympics?

[@gabe_lai]

Olympics is secondary to World Cup Qualification and Continental Confederation Cups

[@BoxOfOranges84]

The Olympics has a restriction of 3 players above age 23 on the roster. It is primarily a youth tournament. The graphic they showed was misleading because all teams are bringing an U23 team. Also, the Olympics schedule overlaps with the European preseason schedule and the beginning of the European season

[@zachmoney716]
