USMNT and Tyler Adams: Resisting Gregg Berhalter’s temptation
Gregg Berhalter has a temptation to overthink and ovetinker. Now, the USMNT head coach must get out his own way, resist the urge, and just let Tyler Adams do the talking.
When the U.S. Soccer Federation turned to Gregg Berhalter to lead the U.S. Men’s National Team into a new era, they did so for a very specific reason. Berhalter is the very definition of a man with a plan.
For all of the thinkpieces, investigations and debates into what went wrong during the previous World Cup cycle, there was one clear problem undermining everything the USMNT attempted: there was no clearly identified, strongly defined, and completely unified and supported plan.
