You don't have to agree w/ Matt's conclusions here, but if you're going to slam Berhalter, you have to consider the case. I tried to do that: jerryhinnen.wordpress.com/20… xitter.cf/MattDoyle76/status/181…
Replying to @MattDoyle76
Fwiw Berhalter was pretty clearly the best USMNT coach of the modern era. Best PPG, most trophies, got the youngest team in the tourney to the WC KO rounds, best goal differential, best xGD, and generally played the best soccer of any US team. It was time, tho.
