Former United States national team forward Herculez Gomez joins ESPN FC to discuss the USMNT’s outlook for the 2019 CONCACAF Gold Cup. Gomez explains why he thinks Gregg Berhalter’s decision to leave Josh Sargent off the roster was a mistake, especially after he wasn’t brought to the FIFA Under-20 World Cup. Gomez defines success for the U.S. in the Gold Cup and examines whether Berhalter and his team have pressure to repeat as champions or if they will get the benefit of the doubt as they continue to rebuild following their failure to qualify for the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

Cant believe Altidore is still there
We nees to make youth soccer free so we can attract talent. We can't win with Pulisic carrying this team. Mckenie isn't good enough yet and Sergeant is too young and not ready
the real question is how are we ranked 24?!
MLS lovin loser for a coach
There's Olympic qualifying later this year. Sargent should be part of that team.
If US starts Bradley and Altidore, expect them to fail miserably.
I have a feeling that these kids are gonna flop
Neither full men’s squad or U 20s, what’s up with this? Tonight should be 13 – 0 but with choices like this, it seems they are starting from scratch…it doesn’t bode confidence but I guess we’ll see later tonight ⚽️
that squad is so fucking ass
Gyasi Zardes needs to stop playing for the USMNT give Sargent a chance to flourish come on
Gyasi Zardes is terrible.
Gold cup teams are TRASH if USA lose any games they probably aren’t good enough to make World Cup once again
Idk how y’all think USA soccer is but they’re not too good for the gold cup. Y’all act like they’re so good that playing in this competition is beneath them. Men’s soccer hasn’t done shit. Winning the gold cup is important
Usmnt kinda fucked rn
FUCK THIS LET JOSH PLAY
Oh!! Big surprise!!!, US Soccer making a huge mistake [in sarcastic tone]. Add it to the list. We are all waiting for the day that we actually have an organization that cares about creating a good program, that recognizes quality youth, envelops them in a thorough training regime, that follows FIFA schedules and protocols, that can actually pick and implement a quality coach, all in the name of developing and bringing qualified players to the table. Like MLK, I have a dream.
More protecting of the MLS players… #BerhalterOUT
These niggas put a nigga dats like 33 years old
US Fans: Klinnsman is a foreigner who doesn't look after the best interest in American soccer!! We need an American coach to lead the way!!
Also US Fans: Greg the egg doesn't know what he's doing!!! we need to hire a good Euro coach to guide us!!!!
So am I the only one worried about getting out the gs? Because Panama and T&T scare me with how we play
the US will NEVER be world class level until the invest in a foreign coach who can male absolutely ubiased choices. I guarantee in they start taking soccer seriously and invest in a good coach, they can get far. What happened when they invested in Klinsman?? they made far in the world cup! but as soon as klinsman left, all went to shit.
Despite pullistic, mckinnie is the most hottest player coming up so fast now.
I'd like to see Zardes play in the Bundesliga and be successful, bet he would have trouble making it on the bench. Berhalter is a joke, he can't assess talent, he favors his Columbus crew players from back in the day. He needs to go. Go thing the US passed up on Gerardo Martino. Huge mistake.
where’s dest or john brooks
It's past time for Altidore and Bradley to be on squad. We need to be playing for 2022 and beyond.
Sebastian, is everything okay at home? Is that a birthmark under your left eye?
Smh berhelter made many mistakes on this gold club roster, no tim weah, de la fuente, and I didn’t see Richards in this lineup and all the other young players who need to get caps. With all these mls players he keeps putting in his lineups he better win after he constantly tries to convince he world his mls favorites are more talented than players who are literally playing the best players in the world on a weekly basis
