Both players could become “world-class” and should stay at their current clubs in order to build up that dawg in them.

A new manager and a move away from Old Trafford by Marcus Rashford could have the Reds buzzing this spring.

US Soccer Gets It Right by hiring Poch…the Fire hires Gregg…and I’m already getting hyped for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Our players should be expected to rise up to the level that the fans demand. Our USMNT has gotten soft and complacent and it’s time to replace a lot of players with fresh faces.

The Euro Cup and Copa America did not disappoint and provided some exciting football during the usual dull summer months.

The fans win out…as US Soccer folds and fires Gregg Berhalter as the USMNT coach. It was the right move.

The fan pressure won’t matter - US Soccer will thumb its nose to its fans…and keep Gregg Berhalter as the USMNT coach.

US Soccer will feel compelled to sack coach Gregg Berhalter this week. They can’t continue on like this.

The former NCAA D2 All-American moves into the second spot in all time MLS goals with 146!

The Federation could have endeared itself to its fans by guaranteeing that they were not bringing Gregg back and going after some of the best international coaches in the world. But they instead chose to insult their fan base by bringing back Gregg and all his failed tactics.

US Soccer looks to be tanking a World Cup that we are hosting. USMNT coach Gregg Berhalter continues to show all his glaring tactical deficiencies in all their glory while we all pull our hair out!

The AC Milan winger joins Landon Donovan as the only male 4-time winner of the US Soccer Player of the Year Award. The 25-year old surely has more awards to work towards as his European career has really taken flight in Italy.

Maybe the Special One has had enough of Europe. I think it’s time he tested himself in Major League Soccer.

If there is something I can do better in 2024…it’s to include MORE soccer in my life!

The World-Cup winning goalkeeper looks like he’s headed to Hollywood!

Baseball fans get to enjoy watching their team almost every night during the season. I know soccer players can’t handle games every night…but I still want a lot!

This will not turn into a lawsuit, but US Soccer has told MLS that it will play its first teams in the US Open Cup. Could be a chance for either organization to flex, but with the World Cup just around the corner - both groups will look to sort this out quickly and amicably.

Very few fans have ever cared THIS MUCH about the US Open Cup. But now, everyone is paying attention and it’s going to make it one of the hottest tickets in town.

Many MLS teams didn’t take the US Open Cup seriously anyway…so be gone with them! The new format will create far more intensity than MLS teams ever brought to the USA’s oldest soccer tournament.

Even before Lionel Messi joined MLS, the league did know how to throw good party.

Aston Villa has people talking. Could they be this season’s Leicester City? Plus, why…why…why does Man Utd continue to infuriate its fans like this? And the Columbus Crew wins MLS Cup!

He’s the right guy - right now…and he’s taking Man Utd to a good place. We probably just need to trust him more.

The USMNT should advance out of its group or Gregg Berhalter should be sacked.

It happens…and I wanted you to enjoy it in real time 💯

Bad knees or not…the Uruguay striker will score a ton of goals this season for Inter Miami. He’ll be partnered with Lionel Messi up top and they will form the most feared striking duo in the history of Major League Soccer.

Soccer is getting so choppy that I might prefer going to a baseball game soon. Enough with all the stoppages and moaning and groaning from players and managers…let’s just play!

Arsenal wades past Wolves…Newcastle thrills in the north and Burnley grabs massive points at home.

The former USMNT striker is heaping pressure onto Gregg Berhalters shoulders going into this summers Copa America.

I had a great trip to England but had to ruin it by coming home and being treated to some pretty pedestrian USMNT performances.

Having just returned from his first season with Fulham of the English Premier League, I had the unique opportunity to spend the day with Carlos Bocanegra in California. The USMNT captain was an awesome interview and very generous with his time.

Gregg Berhalter notches another unimpressive win. American Coco Gauff earns her first US Open Title in an epic Final. Texas surprises Alabama at home and ASU is my late night treat.

Now that the USMNT manager’s return is just a few days away, I’m really struggling to accept this new/old reality. I think we bring in Pep during the late stages of 2023 just in time to win us the FIFA World Cup on home soil.

LAFC defender Aaron Long makes over $1 million a year in MLS and still couldn’t put a damper on Messi’s LA moment. Stars like Selena Gomez, LeBron James and Leonardo DiCaprio were all in the house to watch one of the best ever…put on a show!

Hall of Famer Ken Griffey Jr was a credentialed photographer at the Inter Miami game vs Nashville SC tonight. Inter Miami matches are being streamed in NYCs Times Square. Messi Mania is very real and I’m lovin’ every minute of it!

The cohesion with which Inter Miami has come together so quickly is a testament to the commitment and love for the game that everyone at the club seems to possess. Tata Martino, Beckham, Messi and the Mas bros have MLS rockin’ and rollin’ and I love it!

Inter Miami defeated Nashville SC 2-1 in 11 rounds of penalty kicks. Lionel Messi once again proved that he is up to the task…and excited about it!

Lionel Messi continues to dominate Leagues Cup games while everyone else tries to figure out how to slow down the Inter Miami freight train.

The scary part is that Lionel Messi and Co. look like they are operating at 70% capacity and STILL dismantling their opponents.

This move has pleasantly surprised me. The hard-hitting and feisty holding midfielder should do well under the spotlight he will have on him at Chelsea.

We had great expectations of the World Cup winning Argentinian. But I think what he has already done in MLS has exceeded what we thought he would do.

The end came in dramatic fashion as Sweden eliminated the USWNT in penalty kicks to advance to the quarterfinals of the 2023 FIFA World Cup.

The two time defending champions will prevail in overtime 2-1 over Sweden in a thrilling and hard-fought knockout round match up.

It might be soooo cliche, but I’m all in! I actually look forward to watching Messi play for Inter Miami…and all the glitz and glamour that goes along with it.

There is a tremendous amount of fame and fortune associated with being a part of the USWNT nowadays. And it could be becoming an unwanted distraction to the team at this FIFA World Cup.

Way back in the day, before free internet calling, you had to pay a premium. For me, it was close to $400 to chat with USMNT goalkeeper Kasey Keller about his life in Germany and England back when he was with Gladbach.

Manchester United sorta let me down by featuring basically their youth team when I drove 300 miles to see them. Inter Miami not only has me intrigued, but has hooked me with their ambition, drive and exquisite play!

Thank goodness we’ve all already forgotten about the MLS All-Star game (unless you’re an Arsenal fan) and are looking forward to Messi’s debut Friday - because it was a terrible performance by the league’s “best.”

Ronaldo thinks his league is better than MLS. Messi might beg to differ. This is setting up for an epic pay per view event.

The World Cup winning Argentine will take Inter Miami to heights they never saw possible as they just became a global daily talking point with his signing.

The American maestro will have hefty expectations put on him in Milan. But I’m confident that after a pro-longed adaptation period - he will flourish in Serie A.
