Disagree on Klinsmann. I believe. He got us out of a group in Brazil

We had no business getting out of. He's forced players overseas to develop. He recognizes which tourneys are important and which are 'exhibitions', as Elberto says. This is a World Cup audition for the US hosting in 2026. He'll put his best foot forward in this tourney.

Alright soccer heads, the Copa America Centenario is about to kick off -- ElbertoHokie 06/02/2016 11:07AM

Many USA fans disagree but -- HokieZig 06/02/2016 5:55PM

Good post, I agree, time to get younger and start scoring goals -- Hokie Golfer 06/02/2016 1:47PM

Defense is Brooks, Cameron, Yedlin, Johnson. All young -- CPRVHokie 06/02/2016 2:21PM

Wish we had a left back so Johnson could play outside MF. While FJ attacks -- Gadfly 06/02/2016 3:43PM

Meh, we've achieved in spite of JK not because of him. -- Gadfly 06/02/2016 6:36PM

Disagree. Respectfully. ** -- CPRVHokie 06/02/2016 7:19PM

I trust that group but they never play at the same time, hopefully this is -- Hokie Golfer 06/02/2016 3:35PM

Add in Nagbe, Zardes, Wood, Pulisic. We've got a load -- CPRVHokie 06/02/2016 2:23PM

Yes, but where the majority of our "young" talent is 23 to 28 -- HokieZig 06/02/2016 6:12PM

Meh. We've got a ways to go. Light years ahead of 5 years ago ** -- CPRVHokie 06/02/2016 6:30PM

Don't disagree but unfortunately we need more younger players -- HokieZig 06/03/2016 07:56AM

In what way is it an 'exhibition'? ** -- CPRVHokie 06/02/2016 12:26PM

The real copa America was held last summer -- ElbertoHokie 06/02/2016 12:43PM

It still provides a good opportunity to get points for International Rankin -- hoosnowahokie 06/02/2016 2:08PM

Haha ** -- CPRVHokie 06/02/2016 12:59PM

Aka Money grab -- ElbertoHokie 06/02/2016 1:01PM

Agreed. This is the tournament to identify our next.... -- Jackie VT 06/02/2016 11:58AM

I've not liked Jozy since I first saw him play on the USMNT -- hoosnowahokie 06/02/2016 11:15AM

Agree with most of that. US has too many MLS guys-need to -- HokiePHX 06/02/2016 11:13AM

That area is not producing the players it use too -- HokieZig 06/02/2016 5:53PM

I think that all goes back to how youth soccer is structured here. -- ElbertoHokie 06/02/2016 11:18AM

The biggest improvement in soccer would be made by -- HokieZig 06/02/2016 5:58PM

Absolutely - when nearly 100% of white/asian/latin suburban kids "play" -- HokiePHX 06/02/2016 11:23AM
