Outside the Box: The USMNT should hire one of Pochettino’s assistant coaches to lead the team and then inevitably when he is fired from Man United in the next 12-36 months bring him back to lead us into World Cup 2030.

Interestingly, over their 9 Premier League games: When they cover MORE total distance than their opponents, they have an 80% win rate (4 wins from 5). When they cover LESS total distance, that drops to 50% (2 wins from 4). When they cover MORE sprinting distance, their win rate climbs to 83% (5 wins from 6). When they cover LESS sprinting distance, it falls to just 33% (1 win from 3).
The biggest part of their success this season. Outwork and outrun.

THE RESPONSE. ⚔️ Adversity doesn’t define us. How we respond does. Through every challenge, every setback, and every battle, our identity remains the same. We fight. We respond. We move forward. The fight continues. #GoArmy | @davidalexmedia

The trilogy of the weak-minded! Downright hard, if not impossible, to have a thriving culture when these three habits are running the show.

I love this concept of fearless thinking.
There are a lot of thieves around.
