What's up with the audio: ESPN trying not to violate its own copyright?
I think seb must be at home or something because yeah his audio is rough
Thought it was my knockoff headphones
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great comment
it's so so bad. I think he's just got the levels too high on his mic - could've easily been avoided
I can’t believe he’s going to Canada and we’re stuck with GGG. How in the world has this happened?
Let’s see how he does
Do we really need to see more of GGG tho@@samplingmastersxlr8660
Lmaooo you’re upset about not getting Marsch? I’d actually like to hear why.
@@Phogadacbiet I think he said why in the statement. You still have GGG.
@@alex1vid is that really a reason for being upset? I mean, how do people actually think that Marsch would be an upgrade.
this dude has an axe to grind. US Soccer is just drama everyday.
This is a big blow to US soccer.
Canada moves in front of the US now.
Marsch would have made a terrific US National team coach.
And I was hoping there was someone with a brain in the US Soccer Federation who would dump Berhalter for Marsch.
Bummer
Soccer Canada has brand new management & board & so far they have been very impressive, as Kevin Blue, the new general secretary and CEO, has gotten buy-in from the 3 Canadian MLS teams to back the Canadian team with badly needed funds.
He also, for the 1st time in Canadian history, has arranged for multiple top of the line opponents in friendlies versus the Netherlands & France, before playing Argentina in the Copa Americas.
So the hiring of Jesse Marsch is yet another great move by Soccer Canada, which is finally heading in a positive direction.
If Jesse is flexible with his typical aggressive, pressing style of play & adjusts it versus the better countries, this could indeed be a game changer for Canada, heading towards that main goal of achieving success when co-hosting the 2026 World Cup.
This reads exactly like a press junket put out by the Canadian soccer federation 😂
@@thehylianloach9473 Yup. They still need: capable defenders, to learn how to finish, to learn how to be more technically adept in their footwork. I feel like they are still so clumsy on the ball. Learn that first.
Ironically, the fewer MLS players and the more from Europe, the better the team is.
Such pro-CSB and pro CSA nonsense on an old existing, NOT "new" CSA board with many old management and board members still there in power and not resigning and most have ZERO soccer experience like GOLF MAN Kevin Blue with a business suit background like our corrupt past presidents Nick Bontis, Charmaine Crooks and Victor Montaglisni. The so called "buy-in" is only partly funded in rumors so they couldnt pay the whole thing as Cdn soccer teams to benefit Canadian soccer. The solution to needed funds should be ripping the CSB deal. He got a garbage hiring committee headed by a RUGBY man Angus McNab and former MNT players that are affiliated with CSB. Coach chocie is worse when he barely had an success as coach like in Europe with Leeds.
A garbage move by Canada Soccer in a more DEEP negative directions to DOOM for Canadians Soccer entering the "BLUES" (wink at pun). A game LOSER for Canada towards losses at friendlies. Copa and beyond unless Canada Soccer baord hires soemone better as Secretary with soccer background and better successful coach even consider a Canadian like Bobby Smyrniotis. Hope it happens after Copa failure in new coach for World Cup.
Crowning that organization is far from appropriate. To be sure, I've seen disaster with the Canadian Soccer Association over many decades, going back to the early 80s. So getting Marsch is a much higher step than what I was expecting and for sure is much better than what past administrations would have been settling for. Also, like yourself, I will indeed credit the organization with lining up fairly challenging tests (against Netherlands and France) in the upcoming weeks, leading up to Copa America. It is far far better than what we've ever had in the past.
I think Herc’s analysis skips over something that seems very clear about Canada’s current pool. They have four dynamic forwards, but behind them are a few MLS quality players and then some real scrubs to fill it out. Their best player loves countering into width and space, and their offense lives when he’s doing his thing. Playing Redbull soccer means that space and width will not be there for him, and the rest of the team I doubt can handle a high line. In short, I think Davies would love to play AGAINST the style Canada are likely to play.
Not really to sure about it. But he definitely is a good coach for the style of play Canada needs to play. Lets see how it goes! 😯
Canada has great potential as a team as long as they can get rid of all the fools who bankrupted them, thankfully their 3 MLS teams stepped up. Jesse was lucky to get this job if you ask me.
Knocking Jesse and who do we have? GGG!! Canada scheduling some great matches while US has Honduras and Panama😂
Great deal for both
They have no defence! They'll have to outscore every team
Same thing when he managed Leeds lol
They do have good defensive players like davies, johnston, buchanan, waterman and other youth upcoming stars . Just always being played out of position or a back 3 which canada isn’t used too
I mean that's kind of the entire point of the sport lmao
Bombito is coming up and Cornelius in Sweden is getting some attention from the Eredivisie. Plus Johnston, Davies and Kamal Miller. They aren't horrific anymore is what I'm saying.
@@fit_man_cam1713Yeah and their competition all plays in the Brazilian or Argentine league at the very worst.
It’s the “MLS Canada” MNT manager, not the “MLS” Canada MNT manager. I think that distinction is pretty important. The investment is not from MLS, but from the 3 Canadian owners only
He said "corruption". Twice! Dang. Herc is diabolical.
I hope the USSF would get creative and use "Philontropic" money to get a decent coach
Legit going to watch Canada games as an American just because Jesse Marsch and this team could be very exciting
i used to be a huge supporter of jesse marsch, but his stint at leeds revealed some troubling weaknesses in his coaching style, imo...most conspicuously, i found him to be very dogmatic about his team's playing style, forcing them to play "redbull-style" when they lacked the personnel to do so, and refusing to make pragmatic tactical choices. i think this dogmatism will be even more problematical as a national team coach, because there is a very limited amount of time spent with the players on a national team, so it's essentially impossible to institute a club-like playing style. lol, better canada than usmnt though! good luck to him, i'd be happy to be proven wrong.
Couldn’t have said it better myself. You pair that with the fact that his style also leads to wearing down players physically, and you now add injury risk to the list of challenges under Marsch.
Dude has basically failed upwards his entire career.
Leeds was already in huge trouble when he got there. I still can’t believe people didn’t give him the benefit of the doubt, the team just wasn’t good enough to stay in the PL. They were so used to Bielsas erratic playing style, it backfired on them and couldn’t manage to remove the bad defensive habits of that style.
@@sowaveysuyat so, instead of making a change, Jesse doubled down?
I think people are too caught up on the whole GGG vs Jesse Marsch thing. Has anyone seen Canada's fixture in the coming months? I doubt Marsch is employeed by the end of his Copa America group stage.
canada is too poor to hire a new manager if he fails lol
Canada would downgrade if they fire him early. They have no money to get any competent manager. You might as well risk sticking with Marsch
@@sanjarsocoolBiello again
Yeah they are playing big teams so they can get paid. Unlike the US who play low ranking Uzbekistan in US soil, so Gregg won’t get embarrassed by big national teams.
Asinine comment.
Canada topped WCQ and unfortunately ended up in The WC Group of Death. The CSA has been a mess but there's potential for growth
I think he's a good coach and wish him well. Starting off with friendlies vs. Netherlands and France ahead of an important Copa America is a little tricky. He has literally no time but has the benefit of day-to-day management experience to get up to speed. Canada fans likely need to have some patience and not expect much from the friendlies but a great Copa run would be terrific for Canada. TBF I'm not sure Marsch was even right for the US side as I think they needed an even more experienced manager at this stage. But they stuck with what they had that got fair CONCACAF results.
Believe me, I'm not expecting much from the friendlies or the game vs Argentina. I am however expecting to be competitive vs Peru and Chile.
At least they took a shot at hiring The Special One lol
This might come back to haunt the US
The USA can beat Canada
I have to think that's Jesse's plan. Otherwise, I don't know why he took the job except to allow him to out coach Berhalter head to head and get the USMNT job.
I’d love to hear how this would be what haunts us.
🇨🇦 v 🇺🇸 🔥
Very few national teams are willing to press and press and be vulnerable at the back. It takes a lot of humility.
I always like Marsch, he should have managed Montreal Impact/CF Montreal for a decade. But you know, Joey.
The first comment...."This is great for Jesse Marsch". It should be what is great for the Canadian players. Biello weeded out the old players, not Marsch. A CANADIAN COULD BE IN THIS POSITION, MANY OF THEM.
The USA is top dog in CONCACAF but Canada has the talent to challenge IF they get beyond their CBA woes and get properly organized. I'm not sure if that will happen, but if it does, look out as they have some real ballers in contrast to the American lunch-baggers.
Canada finished first in CONCACAF
@@samuelrigaud6595in 1 World Cup qualifying
😂 typical American
Strange comments: the Canadian team is athletic but absolutely not true that they have playmakers. Thats the problem. They have a very weak midfield.
Stephen Eustáquio is a starter for Porto.
@@rolandwippel4787 Lol no, he's a benchwarmer. You don't even watch Porto do you?
Good for him. Now, can we get rid Blatzhilder and entertain a proper manager?
The fact that "MLS" is in the title of a national team coach is yet another reason I'm pleased with having stopped paying attention to that league.
The last guy to have that job was rewarded with an MLS job for his efforts. Is this job not a step backwards for Jesse?
He was unemployed. Now he’s employed….seems like a step forward.
Good move by Canada. Huge L by USA
lol, _not._
How is this an L for us?
As a Mexico fan, USA would be even better with Marsch I feel like, which is why it’s sort of an L
@@angeljimenez5991 why would we be better? What about Marsch elevates our current pool?
Marsh is slightly better than Berhalter, but not by much. He's not the answer either.

Allez 🍁
Great fit? No team is a great fit for Marsch. Literally no tactics beyond pressing.
Long diagonals and you’re 3v2 versus the keeper.
They could always steal him away from Canada if it goes well there and the USA job opens up.
Higher me I'll do it for free.
How is this a good move like what?? Jesse marsch is good like at all so how is this a good fit? I mean maybe i am living under a rock i dont see this as a good fit at all but lets hope i am wrong…
Brilliant analysis...
You aren't wrong because Canadians will have the joy of conceeding the same goal over and over again
Smfh 🤦♂️
It's treason!
marsch is a traitor
Traitor.
