November 29, 2023 Trending News

Former Leeds manager Jesse Marsch has claimed that the United States men’s national team currently needs a marquee performance. The American coach made the remarks while providing analysis on Paramount+’s coverage of the UEFA Champions League. Marsch was thought to be a frontrunner for the USMNT head coaching position, but U.S. Soccer eventually opted to resign Gregg Berhalter instead.

During his pitchside interview, Marsch discussed his thoughts on the current state of the national team. He was also asked directly about Berhalter’s future with the team by former USMNT forward Charlie Davies. “I mean, listen, that’s not for me to say,” stated Marsch, avoiding any possible friction with the current national team manager.

“And that’s what Copa America has to be for us. It has to be the moment where this group of players, they put all this idea of potential and all the talk about what they become and it has to now mean something come big opponents in a big tournament.”

The USMNT recently qualified for the competition by reaching the Nations League semifinals. It will be the first major non-CONCACAF tournament for the Yanks since the 2022 World Cup.
