Take a close look at new U.S. national team manager Gregg Berhalter and you will find a coach who is a study in contrasts.
He spent the majority of his playing career in Europe, but built his coaching resume largely in Major League Soccer. His music playlist contains some Dispatch, an indie rock jam-band, but also Lil Wayne, which almost certainly makes him the first U.S. national team coach to listen to hip-hop. He wears the look of a mild-mannered manager, but underneath the collection of black sweaters and collared shirts beats the heart of the same fiery competitor who was a no-nonsense defender.
