this is probably a crazy untrue idea, but do you think there could be a national team or something/someone that would rather not have Berhalter be coach of the USMNT. I don't personally know the Reyna's but, some people will do anything for money.
Here's a novel idea: STAY off social media, tighten up! Deal with the struggle like professionals.
God almighty the woke privilege slogans are so tiresome. Must you spew slogans like ‘toxic’ and in so doing discredit your intelligence. Mercy, great job saying nothing but Woke slogans.
Why the fuck is this guy bending over backwards to defend the Reynas?
If they don't call him in, I think it will add oil to the fire. If he is there, that means everyone is moving forward from the past.
I honestly wished you guys would stop making excuses for them. What they did was inexcusable. It smells of entitlement and personal trauma doesn’t give you the right to be a jerk. Just awful they need to be banned
You are talking about “stats” and how GGG was “#1” in all these stats, but yet he has by far the most talented group of players out of all the previous coaches… you don’t think any of the previous coaches would have better stats with this same group of players? Come on…
How does an investigation against greg berhalter turns against claudio reyna
I feel like this kind of shit is going to keep Balogun from committing to us.
Dang these guys used to be really good. This show is just terrible now.
Reyna was hurt for most of the year leading up to the World Cup. I wasn’t that surprised he wasn’t starting. Where was was he going to start? Time he grows up.
I'm inclined to rehire Berhalter just to rub Claudio and Danielle's noses in the shit they spread. Permanently ban the Reyna's from USSF functions. Gio is suspended for some specific period of time that still allows him to eventually rehab his reputation but establishes that me before team is never acceptable.
The Reyna’s behavior extends beyond the World Cup based on the report. Complaining about female referees, etc. They’re toxic parents. Like Gregg said in the report; when things don’t go right for Gio they attack. They’re privileged and completely narcissistic. This ‘mama bear’ nonsense is completely ridiculous. They established a pattern of this behavior since youth levels. Man I want to like Gio but by association this report makes it very difficult.
Hey Heath cool stats bro, but please tell me how many Champions league caliber players Bob Bradley and Bruce Area had playing for the national team?? Its almost like when you have better players as a coach you get better stats as a coach. Wowww
Jimmy cried me a River about losing a child. I get it. It’s a tough loss for the family but it does not give Claudio and his family an excuse to be an asshole.
Oh boy… the Fire Berhalter crowd is going to be squirming tonight! Lol. 😂
Claudio Reyna sacrificing his career and reputation to prevent a Berhalter rehire.. What a patriot. 🇺🇸🗽🦅🇺🇲
You guys crack me up. Favorite show on YouTube!
us soccer culture is so incredibly soft
That "independent" report had a scope purposefully limited to come to a specific conclusion
Why is this still being talked about? WC was months ago. Clearly, there was wrong done on both ends. So what ever family drama their families have, leave it between them and move on. At this point, it's just embarrassing for US soccer and it's fanbase. Another way for us to look mediocre to the rest of the football world.
I get Gio is very talented and plays for a big club but what did he and his parents really expect? He had played almost no role in qualifying. Greg gave him the Japan and Saudi Arabia friendlies and he played pretty poorly. Maybe saying he "looked like Maradona" after Mexico went to everyone's head a little bit.
We need to move on from GGG
Gio has yet to show signs of moving past. The whole goal celebration back at Dortmund- plugging his ears, hushing people is still childish. If it leaked that you moped around during practice while repping the US at a WC, and your parents then did the unthinkable in your defense? then the first order of business is demonstrating you can be a true professional and an adult.
Gio: find some other role models in your life.
Is anyone gonna acknowledge that Berhalter's now wife punched him in the face first? That definitely matters when the incident is portrayed like Berhalter "hit his wife" as opposed to he reacted to being hit. You can argue that maybe he shouldn't have retaliated or that two kicks when she was on the ground was wrong, but the incident was portrayed like they were arguing and he just kicked her. I knew she hit first based on Berhalter's initial statement where he said "The argument turned physical, AND THEN I kicked her in the legs." None of these media members apologized for portraying him as someone who hit his wife just because they were arguing.
My first instinct to protect my children would be to bring them away from the bad situation, not bulldoze anything and everything to get what I want. That more on the Reyna’s greed and capacity for bullying.
🇺🇸
I think you guys shouldn't rehire Greg anyway, but it doesn't take away the fact that this was a shitty thing to do by the Reyna's, no Greg shouldn't have done what he did years ago, but theyve clearly moved past that (the fact theyve been husband and wife 20+ years and theres no other reports of DV, says something) the reason Greg shouldn't be rehired is hes an average coach
Highest winning percentage is misleading. We played sooo many weak teams in Berhalter's stint.
What were our results against top 20 teams?
Yeah, you happy now,Reynas? Geez. No class family.
Hopefully that finding allows Gregg to move on (without suing USSF) and get hired somewhere else, and USSF to get their sh!t together and hire a proper manager.
I believe the Reynas were idiots for not participating and have behaved shamefully, but not participating in this inquest should not be held against someone; the 5th amendment is a cornerstone of our system of laws.
It's funny to hear about nepotism with Jay Berhalter as Head Coach of the USMNT…. oh sorry I mean Gregg, Jay's brother. Jay was the one who hired Gregg.
Hopefully Gregg AND his wife sought help. Smacking a partner in the face is totally unacceptable. Period. Domestic violence is not only a male issue.
But apparently they moved on decades ago, so this is their thing.
Ranking Berhalter against US coaches is meaningless, rank him against international coaches and lets see where he stands.
