The fundamentals of defending, attacking or whatever are the same the world over. Just cos the coach is American, doesnt mean what he's talking about isn't useful. covering and applying pressure to deny a team trying to create and make passing opportunities is useful, no matter who you are or what country your from.
the answer is simple.....the best male US athletes do not play soccer.....can u imagine if an ardrian peterson, brandon marshall, kobe bryant and lebron james decided to make soccer their first sport.........its not that US training is bad......its our best athletes do not play.....
@northshore7x u r stupid! you can argue that the best US soccer players don't play football or basketball!!! u r an idiot because landon and tim howard can be cateogorized as some of the US's best athletes!!!
@ouayang18hotmail Landon Donovan was a RESERVE with Everton and couldnt make even one start with Bayern Leverkusen......now.....compare the best athletes like a Lebron James, Kobe Bryant, Adrian Peterson or Larry Fitzgerald....and imagine if they played soccer..........CASE CLOSED FOOL
@northshore7x kobe does play soccer!!! They may be reserves but they are still US's best athletes!, Tim Howard does start and so does the rest of the US's squad..the only reason y landon don't is because he develope too much bad habits from MLS!
@ouayang18hotmail When did Kobe Bryant ever take soccer SERIOUSLY....He played picked up games in Italy. Our best US athletes never considered soccer. Soccer players in the US are maybe the 3rd or 4th level players. Why do you think the US dominates in basketball, track and not soccer. Get Real
@gokue977 again......we are NOT talking about SKILLS......we are talking about the RAW athletic talent. Our best athletes do not play soccer. Usually they are the 3rd or 4th level athletes. If you think im wrong......ask yourself this.......when has the US ever come close to winning a world cup......Semi or Finals........answer .......NEVER........CASE CLOSED
@northshore7x you are a fool! kobe bryant would play football?! hahaha what do you think athletes are? if you put beckham on nba you think he will score just cause he is a good footballer?(you have a very simplistic way of thinking if you can call that a serious way to think! to tell raw unexploited material the basketball players) and anyway I agree that in the US football isnt the most popular sport but that doesnt mean that much!
@pantafree one question.....in every other sport that we send the BEST ATHLETES.....basketball, baseball, hockey......the US wins......now......what has the US won in soccer......ha ha ha hah ah h ah ah a............need i say more.......CASE CLOSED............
@northshore7x and countries with much smaller athlete pools, less money and management material had much better results, oh I heard picasso is pretty good at painting imagine if he had thrown that talent at football that RAW pure talent you should take him on your all star team(anyway I am kidding, but I dont like to hear bullshit, different sports need different abilities someone who is good at tango doesnt mean he would be good at break dance also it doesnt mean the opposite)
You wouldn't believe how many people on my team don't know stuff like this, including myself. Also, keep in mind that this is targeted at youth players.
hahah i know i am argentine/spanish and live in the US but the US womens soccer team has i think the most womens world cup wins.. and USa guys are getting better... like today when they beat spain i was pissed
