    HOW I became…Josh Sargent | US Soccer's great hope up top?



    “Pro soccer player, I swear I can do it!” was always Josh Sargent’s answer as a kid when asked what he wanted to be when he grows up. And he was right. The Werder Bremen and US national team striker is a big talent. We went to the Midwest of the United States, where Sargent first fell in love with the game.

      I think USA soccer has declined in recent years because too many of the big stars have gone back to MLS and too many of the young stars are in the Bundesliga, which is no longer an elite league. When the USA was strongest was when they had 20 players in the EPL. Now they have around 2 as Americans think it is easier to play in the Bundesliga, but they are playing in a lower quality league.

      glad gregg berhalter called him up for the gold cup..can't really count on glass bones altidore. gyasi zardes is good but he's not a finisher. this also gives weah time to shine at the u20 world cup as well. josh sargent is arguably the best striker the U.S has right now. hope werder bremen gives him more playing time.
