Obinna Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 People always talk about how talented this upcoming generation of players are (and they are right), but this fiasco is exactly the type of thing which holds them back. There always seems to be some weird off-field issue with this program that keeps hindering their progress. Right now, the USA remain in the same tier as teams like Japan, South Korea, Mexico, Denmark, Sweden, Switzerland, Serbia, etc. - Darkhorse teams that can cause damage but haven't consistently shown more beyond that. With the immense growth of talent, they have the potential to be in the Croatia, Netherlands, Uruguay (debatable?), Portugal tier (a.k.a. the tier immediately below the very, very best in the world, which are expected to go deep and possibly reach a final. Unfortunately for them, the growth on the field is not matched off the field. Strange hires and internal drama are shooting themselves in the foot - and for a team bound to a weak confederation like CONCACAF, there are limited opportunities to win valuable silverware that enhances their global image. As for us, we are plagued with our own issues, but we have figured the coaching thing out. Our target is far more modest: Get to the tier the USA (and Mexico) are currently in - and stay there.

SpursFlu Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 (edited) So Reyna's wife was in college with Berhalter's wife so she knew in 91 he kicked her in a night club when they were 19. They've been together 35 years with 4 kids but because he won't start his son in a world cup he sends this information out to what? Either play his son or else? Get him fired and or tarnish his reputation? Yup.. thats blackmail Pretty pathetic behavior if you ask me. And I thought hockey parents were bad. Your son is 21 playing in the Bundesliga and in the World Cup. Take a chill pill Does Claudio Reyna think he's Chuck Rhoades or something?

Yes but they're getting Anthony Hudson to run it. They'd be better off not having a camp, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acid-Tone Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 If J Berhalter doesn't hire his (out of his depth) brother for the job, Gregg would have no reason to be talking about Gio at all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bertuzzi44 Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 What gregg did was wrong obviously, but the fact that Reyna's mom didn't say anything for 30+ years and only does now after gregg didn't play her son enough at the World Cup is very sus Clearly this isn't about berhalter's wife, it's about her son! johnyb, TOcanadafan, Mattd97 and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A_Gagne Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Well, I hope going all Jerry Springer on Gregg was worth it for the Reyna's. Regardless of one's opinion on Gregg, Gio for sure now has at least a few years worth of "your mom/dad" related shit talk to look forward to from other players.

Unnamed Trialist Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Can't someone make up some shit about Sebastian at Whitecaps getting involved so we can have a Canadian angle to this? Even better, how about 27 years from now, all the bad blood between Sebastian Berhalter and Jay Herdman, both coaching MLS, comes to the surface, thanks to their dads and wives. gigi riva and narduch 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do wonder if Herdman and Berhalter's successor (assuming there will be one) will continue to "trade notes" about the other Concacaf teams or encourage them to set up friendlies so they can scout each other's Copa America opponents. Or if Berhalter stays, will Herdman now refuse to have anything to do with him on the grounds of his favourite charge of misogyny? The possibilities are endless.
