There will be at least a handful of people on social media who will unironically suggest that Greeg be replaced with Jason Sudekis dressed up as Ted Lasso.

To be fair, he wouldn’t be worse.

He's a midfield workhorse OP. If he goes down, the side are screwed. These guys are talented, but like 4 years away from being actual.

There are some talented players on the squad and I unironically think that US soccer development has improved greatly over the past 20 years. There’s finally a legit pipeline of players going to Europe and the US’s most talented players are getting minutes on champions league teams. That is, for better or worse, still a far cry from being competitive. Look at the team above the US - basically the same values on transfermarkt (yeah, I know it has issues but as a very broad proxy for value it’s not the worst). USA is €274.9 million. Switzerland is €281. But all of Switzerland’s players play for top leagues. They have a coherent style and are well coached. It’s just not the same.
