I think our current talent pool is decent, but either poch is genuinely fucking retarded or there’s some baffling incompatibility between players. England kinda sorta had the same problem in the 00’s because of rival EPL teams but for some reason our euro kids just fall to pieces when they put on the shirt domestically, even in concacaf tournaments

Back then the players actually grew up in America with american parents and played with american teams, the players played with passion and loved representing USA. Nowadays the USMNT is full of uppity ethnics that were born to migrant families and play in euro clubs. USA would play better if they used only MLS players and ignored all the passionless frauds that play in euro clubs.

What do you mean? He hasn't left yet, but is going to as soon as he's old enough for a work permit. Or are you thinking of the other younger brother from the Philly Union academy, Paxten Aaronson?

We tried this experiment during our 1990s-2010s drought in 2018 and we nearly didnt make it into the world cup, we had to have Messi carry our asses on a game against Venezuela to get in.
If your local league is garbage then the players that come from it can only be good if they train and play somewhere else, and the only way you can have good players in your NT is if they care about giving it their all for the flag.
Also, avoid expats, the only expat that performed for us this century is Nico Paz and his sample of games is small, and he's a Real Madrid academy product with a former NT player as his dad.
An expat who is more focused on going back to his club to play is the worst combo, avoid it at all times.

We played with more heart and hand Landon Donovan and Clint Dempsey as big game players, and always had a GK who went god mode in world cups like Friedel, Keller and Howard. Now we have a bunch of spoiled soft boys with weak mental stats and no heart.
