his very first comment is that the USA didn't "match the desire of Canada". So basically, TRY HARDER is what this coach came up with after a year in his stupid system.

He blames losing 50/50 balls. What he doesn't say is that his tactics were bad. He doesn't say that his tactics led to those 50/50 balls.

He claims this is a challenge because "it is our first meaningful game away from home". Whose fault is that? USSF and Gregg. He could have coached all of those games Sarachan coached.

He goes on to blame sloppy touches and misplayed balls. Really great when you want to play possession, yes?

He's a coach in denial. He's a coach who still believes in his system. He blames his players.

He had no backup plan. Insert Zardes, pull Christian, and try harder were his coaching decisions.

He's in over his head.
