    Poch started for Argentina in the '02 World Cup (although it was one to forget for them).

    I would pick Tab Ramos as the ideal assistant for Poch. He was born in Uruguay and moved to the U.S. when he was 11. He's played in Europe and in MLS. He has proudly represented the U.S. as a player (in three world cups) and as a coach (head coach of the U.S. U20s; assistant for the senior team under Klinsmann). Ramos is the perfect cultural bridge between Poch and his crew and the American players. He knows what it means to play for this team and represent this country, and did it as one of the most skillful players to ever wear the U.S. jersey.

    Brilliant stuff as usual, yes Jermaine Jones is more "useful" than Jim Curtin who won Supporters Shield not too long ago and was a PK away from winning MLS Cup, with the Philadelphia Union who spend no money... on the other hand Landon Donovan is literally no longer a coach having given up on it after a few years, and Jermaine "pretty good tactical knowledge" Jones first got his USL team eliminated from US Open Cup by a BURRITO RESTAURANT and then got suspended by USL :thumbsup:




    USL suspension of Jermaine Jones reveals fractures within team and even wider discord

    Yet nearly a year later, fractures between Jones and the club’s players have led to discipline for the coach that before now has not been publicized, and an investigation that revealed clear mistrust within the league’s ranks.

    According to documentation reviewed by The Athletic, Jones was suspended through the end of the 2024 season following an independent investigation. The summary of that investigation said it had “substantiated” repeated instances of harassment, retaliation and hostility from Jones toward members of the team.

    Some wonderful stories here about Jermaine Jones... yes let's have him coach the national team

    Michael Bradley hired by Canada as an assistant coach. Working for Jesse Marsch.

    we should have hired him first.
