Time to get the guys off the team that have no heart. That was pretty pathetic. Some of those guys didn't look like they wanted to be out there.

Against a scrub team with an interim manager? It’s really tough to find motivation for matches like these. It reminded me a lot of the Raiders game. Obviously it’s a “rival”, but with nothing to play for and much bigger things on the horizon it’s hard to really blame a lot of the players for lacking enthusiasm in a match like that.

If Canada is a scrub team, what does that make the team ranked 6 spots below them in ELO and losing to them at home? LMAO

USA had the same meek performances at the Copa as today. This was nothing new.

The interim coach from the same regime isn’t anything new? Shocking!

Marsch, a former U.S. international who was in the running for the U.S. job on an earlier occasion, has been quizzed at length about the American program in recent weeks. He made it clear after Saturday's game that he landed in the right place.
"I'd much rather coach Canada than the U.S. right now. … Wouldn't change coaching this team right now for anything in the world," Marsch said.

No surprise there, one program is on the rise and the other is a total mess.

It’s called job security. Why would he want to go to a country with expectations? He tried that with the Leeds job and failed miserably. Could you imagine the relief he must have felt going from the premier league to a country that has never even earned a World Cup point in their entire existence?! It’s a job with literally nothing but upside and no expectations.

What expectations are there for the US job?

I would say round of 16 should be the goal and everything after that would be the cherry on top. We definitely have to make it out of the group, though. That’s way more expectations than Marsch has to deal with in Canada.
