U.S. Men's National Soccer (Official Thread)

Jurgen Klopp is stepping down from Liverpool at the end of the season. He states he is "running out of energy" which sounds like he's just burned out. Guardiola thinks he'll be back after he recharges himself. My feeling is to mortgage the future and the world if we have to and get him on the staff at least if not as the boss. The WC is going to be right here and we have the best roster we've ever had talent-wise so go get the best coach out there.

I've now gotten my hopes up and it's your fault if it doesn't happen.

WC 2026 Group Play locations

LA
Seattle
LA

Final is MetLife in NYC. :roll1:

I guess I shouldn’t have expected much else with the options. Not exactly excited about those spots but will plan whatever I can to make some games.
Wait wut? How do they already know all 3 locations? How tf am I supposed to see them now? What was the damn point of getting the WC if I personally can't go watch?

Yeah so we're looking at some of the Philadelphia options.

Annoyingly they're not even doing real qualifying so, hopefully they will have a wide variety of tune-ups. We were able to catch them and El Salvador in January '22 in Columbus. Not super warm!

There may be other preview matches. In 94 there was a england v Germany match in Detroit exhibition.
