With England about to play their first games under their new manager, do you know who the current US manager is? The head coach of the USMNT is none other than Mauricio Pochettino. Former manager of Tottenham and Chelsea. And he happened to make the news today because of a statement he made. He claimed that the US men's national team can be the best in the world within 5 to 10 years. At first I thought it was a joke. But nope, he was being deadly serious. Well Mauricio, I'm sorry to burst your bubble but the US won't be the best team within 5 to 10 years. They won't even crack the top 10. To think otherwise you either have to be very naive or very delusional. Which is what makes his statement so ridiculous. I don't think this is the first time I've heard something like this. At least from the Reddit posts I've seen, even the Americans with any knowledge of "soccer" are not stupid enough to believe this.
