“But, unfortunately football now is full of image. It's full of image. And people gives more attention to the ones that look than to the ones that really are." Jose Mourinho.
I remember having a realization of, "Carli Lloyd is the tip of the spear of this team, why is she not being more promoted?" I just assumed she was a quiet leader who didn't want any attention at all.
I actually love her even more after watching this
Carli is amazing. She is a true leader and her spirit is what I miss about the USWNT.
I always looked at Carli as the face of the team since way back, but I see what she means about not being marketed the same as the players US Soccer wanted. I was always surprised to not see her have more sponsorships or be promoted more. How she was successful in that environment is beyond me! Absolutely original and amazing player! ❤ I was at her last USWNT and it meant so much to me after being such a huge fan of her as a player but also a person in her authenticity.
The reason she was not loved by her teammates is her inner hatred. Look how she bad-mouths them.
@@hmahdavi I never said anything about her not being loved by her teammates, I said I was wondering why she wasn't promoted more or got more sponsorships because of how successful she was on the field.
Sponsorships are given by sponsors who want to sell their products. It has nothing to do with the coach, the team, or the federation. Most sponsors prefer Alex Morgan.
@@hmahdavi I know right Carli is a bitter hated person….I hate that SMUG Carl LLOYD. She is rude and immature….she is a future Hall of famer?? I think not…she treats the soccer like she owns it. How sad.
Nothing but respect for Carli. She keeps it real. And when she played, she was the player who stood out because of how she played.
This is what will make the women's game more interesting. Its hearing what players go through real stuff. Story lines etc.
Great respect for Carli Lloyd and the career she has had. Definitely refreshing to hear this perspective on USWNT and to some degree the broader US Soccer Federation
Enjoyed this and it explains a lot! I loved her grit and passion… hey…we all do this for a win!
In my opinion she's one of the best players ever inside and outside of the pitch 🏆🏆🥇🥇
Carli nailed it about Youth sports in America. It's not about nurturing talent. It's about winning and that is why we are not succeeding at the highest levels.
It is about money. A lot of good players who can't pay their fees or get to practice every day of the week get kicked out.
this is why i quit being a DOC/coach as my career. what we’re doing is wrong, since i was a kid too.
The USA is the only country that has won 4 world Cups. We must be doing something right. Carli is just bitter.
@@hmahdavi the fact that you think this is an argument shows you are telling on your lack of knowledge
it’s about the connection w others. that’s most important.
Muchos la pueden odiar, pero ese ego la llevó a que la uswnt tenga 2 copas más del mundo, su presencia ayudó a esas jugadoras a ser lo que son.
Awesome news, I look forward to hearing Carli's thoughts for US international men and women's team tournaments going forward
And with the marketing thing- Rapinoe has absolutely sucked for the past few years and Alex Morgan has been on a serious decline. Yet who were the two players most advertised at the recent World Cup? Rapinoe and Morgan. Someone like Linsey Horan or Naomi Girma should be publicized more. They are the now and the current leadership.
Morgan really wasn’t. She had that Nike commercial but that was about it. Pinoe was advertised a lot, too much actually for someone who was a bench person.
Yes it’s unpopular to be REAL. I admire Carli and I have a similar personality. The amount of people I have lost or disconnected from is WILD 😆 And people see this persona and automatically say “ cocky .. arrogant … stuck up “ At the end of the day she’s proud of her GRIND regardless of who watched. And that’s what I am taking, BE THE BEST!
reading between the lines - her and Alex Morgan had heat
I knew since the ‘21 Olympics that this US team was not going to go far at the World Cup unless we changed some things. Casual fans may have been shocked but deeper supporters shouldn’t have been
Yep, the issues were apparent for a while and it’s still happening. Marketing should be based on productivity, not hype.
Agreed, they looked flat at the Olympics and the friendliest got the NWSL fans believing the team was good. The team could not finish, lacked cohesion, passed poorly against weak international teams but the wins allowed these fans to delude themselves. Less than a year before the World Cup the team was pretty much trashed by England and Germany, that was a three alarm fire and no one called 9-1-1
Nothing else but respect for Carli!! Cheers from Spain!
Like the direction Kickin' It is going. It's different, but still feels familiar... Relatable..
Love the crew and the guests so far.
... Still haven't gotten over the first episode 🔥.
Carli LLoyd strikes me as having a Kobe Bryant mentality in regards that he didn't care to have friends in the NBA and he e was just focused on family and winning and she's exactly the same but in where as Kobe got celebrated Carli didn't by the woman's national team. I have a lot of respect for her and her work ethic. It's a shame the Women's National team couldn't honor her the way she needed to be. She's definitely not my cup of tea but I respect her a whole lot and the effort she put forward into winning games.
That’s the women’s teams loss anyone who supported those ladies knows how much of a legend she was for the ladies game. Always played a key part in the big games
Except she didn’t focus on family she cut them out of her life for 12 years. Did you miss that big part of the segment?
@@kellyeverett I guess I did. Let me further research that part.
To an extent. Kobe actually has a lot of slander now a days with his mentality towards his teammates. Yes he did a lot of the game and respected his game and the player who he was but a lot of people also didn’t like him as an individual either
Kickin' It is the best exclusive this sho2 has had. It'll only continue to grow❤🔥🔥
I was one of the person's that was in agreement with Carli. Everything has to start from the grassroot level. Those Spanish Women players that play for Real Madrid & Barcelona are far ahead of those current youth American players in the Senior team.
I know this, because I've been watching football from the 90's & I watch alot of European Football.
Why do you think even at age 38 for example, Cristiano Ronaldo is still fitter than several younger players? It comes down to consistent work ethic & performance on the field.
No one will speak more highly of Carli Lloyd than Carli Lloyd.
Holy smokes… enjoyed the heck outta Carly and the Kickin it format… this show rocks. Well done
NJ Proud 💪🏽
Marketing the "stereotypical" American girl next door type was and is very evident throughout US Federation with the women's team. I watched since the early 1990's and grew frustrated to see them push certain players over the most talented. Look at what they did to Mal Pugh Swanson when she was young to the scene, it nearly destroyed her.
This is a great platform, and it has been a minute of people wana see a platform for soccer legends like this
Love you Carli!! ❤ 💪
I can see tomorrow's headlines already. Looking forward to next week.
This is certainly a big headline in the morning but I feel bad for a white girl to feel this way, usually people of color will have this feeling more,sad for this great champion Cari.
@@koffichinovi7381tf does her bein white have to do with anything
Total respect
carli has always been my fav uswnt player just behind mia ❤️
Herb Brooks of USA Hockey '80 Olympics fame is exactly the type of coach that Carli is asking for, maybe even more than Deion
This soccer platform is great, we love it
Great episode! Sad people can’t understand, just shows her experience on the national team is now the American culture.
"American culture" is not being in touch with immediate family and did not wanting family and friends to attend your games or even wedding? Carli is what she is, a bitter loner.
Carli is an American hero any casual fan can appreciate her accolades
CL confirming what we all suspected how USSF runs.
Carly es una buena estadounidense y siempre ha buscado lo mejor para su país, si politiquerias, ni agendas, es creo la mas reciente legenda de la selección y lo próxima es Morgan, pero Rapinoe será recordada como una mezquina.
This was fiyahhhhh
I like her! Up front and real❤️❤️
Shots fired .... Targets hit!!!!
I learned so much from watching this.
Damn, not even 5 mins in...she's already throwing shade lol
*Carli Lloyd and Mia Hamm have been the top players in USA women's soccer history. Pundits or soccer experts from South America and England have expressed that Carli was an out-of-this-world soccer player. So, she knows better than anyone how the national team operates.*
Carli is right they never stand a chance I saw it from the first game the first 20min in the game, I said no this not the USwnt I know ..
look Carli Lloyd we missed you and we always love you
Carli Lloyd is the WOMAN for so many reasons. Incredible!
Carli
❤❤❤🤌🤌🤌💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
What’s the intro song?
The Goat .
She’s got the Jordan mentality, That the new gen lacks. It’s a shame to see it going away.
GOAT
She's amazing.
She's so right. Alex Morgan was marketed like crazy! She is a great player, but her being cute and girly was what they wanted people to see. It was the right move though, because that is the core audience that they needed to keep the talent pipeline going and building interest. I think her feminine look has changed all of women's soccer in every country. Unfortunately, this agenda to build the game has neglected truly great players. Carli was the engine of her team, an absolute force and a balon d'or worthy player.
Carli, I feel your pain. But let me say this. My family has always enjoyed your contributions to the world of soccer. You called it right at the wwc. But it was caused by the coaching staff to cause the team to not be prepared. Not have that killer instinct.
I say it all the time. Mia Hamm was billed as the face of soccer. Morgan, I call Barbie, because they bill her as the face of soccer. The last few cycles it was Sophie Smith. They would not take her out.
Whoever chooses the people to put in front of the cameras for USSoccer needs to know we will go online for those other players. To get to know who we want to know.
Give all of them their time.
Of course, there was limited airtime from the beginning. So as it grows so will the opportunities.
Thank you Carly for your honesty.
At almost 40 she was still one of the best players on that team and should of played more than she did. If you have NEVER been in that environment you have no idea what goes on. I think she is speaking the truth and people just don’t like the truth. And she is correct about youth soccer. It’s a business now and a coach will say look what I did instead of saying look what my team did.
This is giving Scottie Pippen tell-all after retiring with 6 rings as Michael Jordan’s right hand. I hold Carli Lloyd in high regard, but what can you do when you are playing on a team of the NWSL’s best players? I’m curious to know if Julie Ertz has the same sentiments, considering she has been equally essential and can be a team player to step in whenever and wherever she is needed without being in the spotlight and getting more sponsorships.
Julie might have the same sentiments, but she would never bad mouth her teammates publicly. I’m sure Morgan and pinoe don’t care for CL either but they would never bad mouth her publicly.
Caicedos a balla❤
Carli shot some serious fire to the new generation of U.S. players 28:55 to 29:08 (women) and for the men at 11:55 to 12:09 because she talks about the women’s team being a dysfunctional group of players but they know how to win when it matters…😐we all know the guys haven’t been able to do that in years.
Charlie can not hear a single word she's saying! lol! She absolutely is NOT a tool! lol!❤
I’ve always thought Carly Lloyd was one of the best players on the USWNT because she was but I think it’s a two way street. You have to market yourself and it’s often harder for women in sports. In todays age it’s easier but if you wanted your career to be based on what you do on the field that’s fine but not everyone is watching women’s soccer. Turning down opportunities to make you widely known outside of just the soccer audience is on you. At the end of the day marketing is based on what’s good for the business and what can make money.
When Carli got started those opportunities did not exist
Thank You Carli for being honest and providing insight to the current status of USWNT. Let's wait and see what this next coach can do. There's a lot of egos and pressure going on. I just hope the next coach can implement their philosophy. Carli please talk to Sanchez? I think her supposed friends on time are probably back stabbing her. She's too talented to knock be on field.
Been wondering why Ashley Sanchez isn’t a starting USWNT
She built her own brand and was disappointed that no one gave a flying hoot about it? Excellence on the field should have only counted in her mind? Didn’t they teach marketing at Rutgers? Would you put Alex Morgan or Carli Lloyd on a poster? For beauty do you choose an Afghan Hound or a Bull Dog? Bull Dogs are wonderful animals but the Afghan looks nicer.
Mia Hamm did not want to be the face of the team back in the day. Based on everything you read, she reluctantly did it for the team and really wanted to be just another of the gals playing a game she loved. I don’t think her team looked badly at her because they knew her and what she was about internally. However, Carli Lloyd didn’t trust anyone?
She thinks organizers should have put up on Posters of her in Philly in addition to Julie Ertz? I remember once that Isiah Thomas was upset because early in Michael Jordan’s career, Mike was more popular in Chicago. So what, Thomas got his recognition in Detroit while Mike toiled in the Windy City for a while. Just because you come from somewhere means people need to kowtow to you when you return.
She was surprised that the National team was full of people who wanted to exceed and take other positions? Did she think that once she made it, she didn’t need to be constantly pushed from others who wanted to play the same as her? This environment was too cut throat? Why does the USWNT 99 team still have reunions and they all seem to get along? They seem to understand the roles they had and to be successful they accepted them because they wanted to win. Would you want Carli Lloyd at a reunion? Just Asking.
In the past, players pushed for equal treatment first. Now with others equal pay, she’s disappointed she didn’t get her fair share?
I not sure what she is accomplishing by saying these things. No team is perfect but to win, you need to find a way to exist peacefully. Looks like deep down, she was an individual in a team sport. Too bad she can’t let it go and move on.
Ah…honesty.
Carli was Captain Fantastic. Basically what has happened is that the world caught up and on the women's side they were winning so why have a true developmental academy program when you have "pay to play" clubs and ECNL and the horror that is high school soccer. They US Academy program for boys saved men's soccer pure and simple. We have not developed our females correctly and there will need to be a proper academy program for girls (I know they tried and failed but that was merely politics).
What do you mean they have failed and is politics.
Big Carli, 🫶
Wow, so bitter, with all of her accomplishments, you think she would be more grateful and want to make it better for those coming up. Instead she just complains.
Im so lost cause we knew who she was from day one. Now from a sponsorship standpoint that maybe different but from a fan standpoint I don't necessary agree.
about those club salaries before equal pay......😆
*You can criticize them for once about how they play, who should play, how many goals. But this woman constantly criticized her former team. What does that do for them? You think they want to hear that going into games? Be like Heather o’reilly who didn’t bad mouth them or Brandi chastian who went onto twitter and gave them a motivational speech or Mia Hamm who actually went to their game for support. Carli is a bitter and selfish woman who can’t help but to put her hate on this team. She was a star at one point but always had to be in the spotlight and didn’t like it when others were. Boohoo, grow tf up. At least she was very successful and has the accomplishments and trophies to prove that.*
This interview is basically "tell me you hate Alex Morgan without telling me you hate Alex Morgan." Carli is an amazing athlete and national hero, but is not likable due to this chip on her shoulder and bitterness. This is a player who for years was not in touch with her immediate family and did not want family and friends to attend her games which she herself admitted to in her book. She would have been more marketable with a friendlier and more approachable personality. Seems like someone who isolated herself and did not come across as a supportive teammate.
100% facts. Thanks for posting this.
And most of all Rapinhoe
💯 agree!
Is she wrong about the team though? She’s being honest about the team. And like she pointed out: they didn’t win.
You OBVIOUSLY didnt understand.... smh. Instigator 🙄
People don’t like those who are direct. People don’t like those who are not afraid to break the mold. They do not want to be “othered” and so will “other” you just to fit in. Human nature. It’s sad and it’s sick.
I've always thought Carli Lloyd coyld pass as Tim Howards sister.
I agree with the lack of development in the youth programs, it’s been like that for so long. But to say there’s not a single player with that dog mentality anymore is crazy. Crystal Dunn literally plays any position for the team? Alex Morgan who’s given everything for this team and to build the game. You can have a vendetta against certain players but don’t group them as a whole. Also Mia Hamm was put to the forefront because she was the best player on the team. It’s nothing against Michelle Akers but that team was stacked with talent. Mia literally broke the international goals record while playing…
I swear i swear Charlie Davies looks like Ronaldo Nazario R9😂❤🔥🔥
The woman football is changing. With a lot european good teams.
She mostly talking bout Morgan ? 👀👀
19:27 youth
Calling all this teenage girls SUPERSTARS it's insane! Nothing else to say!
Reminds me of Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand
You won't fix it if the top is promoting the garbage the players are putting out.
Reminds me of every workplace I’ve ever been in
Can anyone imagine any of the 99ers talking like this to the media? Honestly, once again, like after the last WC Fox critiques, she really just doesn't get it.
But she cares and a Fox paycheck has nothing to do with her waxing poetic on how this generation of players is beneath her and her generation
Always thought Carli Lloyd was a great hustle merchant for the USWNT!
However, CL turns down “celebrity” opportunities, but then complains about her struggle to be recognized as such… seems like she’s a bit confused about what she wants and how to get it.
All athletes, male or female, have to embrace their “celebrity” if they want more recognition.. even the best and most recognizable athletes of all time like Cassius Clay/Ali, Michael Jordan, Deion Sanders, and Tom Brady (and many others) all embraced “celebrity.”
TBH, I don't think people other than Carli and Clint can convince me, simply because they don't know what is like to play on the top level.
Carli Lloyd the icon and symbol of all things 'American'.
A whole lot to say about a whole lot of nothing -- a super-size bag of popcorn.
When Edu compares Carli’s experience with the womens team to his experience with the mens team its laughable. The womens team has won four world cups. These new younger women feel like they have nothing to prove anymore while the mens team is still the under dog with tons to prove
Carli is so genuine, unlike the Pretentious Princess, Alex Morgan. There is a reason many Americans cheered against the USWNT this past World Cup .. Morgan and Rapinoe for starters. If Carli was playing for the team, I guarantee you most Americans would have been cheering for their home team. Morgan destroyed her brand at the World Cup and her perfume commercials ended up an embarassment with how poorly she played.
And hear comes Sir Alex Ferguson about American Soccer's problems!If a future player starts thinking seriously at the age 12 its way too late!They will make it but here comes forever, "Mediocrity"!
steph mcmahon
Carli, you didn't like your teammates, they didn't like you. One can see the farewell ceremony for Rapinoe and Julie Ertz. At the last game for Rapinoe, they had the most attendance in the history of the stadium. This shows that it was your fault, not the team or teammates. Stop bad-mouthing them you have no credibility.
This is an embarrassing comment.
Carli has become an embarrassment with her constant badmouthing of USA soccer. Never underestimate the USA, we will be the world champion again. @@mione134
Bruh fans showed out for her retirement. Toward the end of her career, fans from opposing NWSL teams would boo their own players if Carli was fouled. She is hella respected.
Great player Yes, great human being No. @@landryharrell7
Is that you Meagan?
What is she moaning about? She's literally the only female american player ive ever heard about besides mia hamm and ali krieger and megan rapinoe. And im from Amsterdam, support Ajax and i never watch womens football. Maybe it helps cuz she's hot ;p. And no Rapinoe isn't hot she's just being hyped up in the news with this whole woke LGBTWQ thing. How did i come here? I've always supported the USA mens team, love this podcast. Clint Dempsey is a player i like very much. Charlie Davies should find another job, his face and ego annoy me.
Mwahhh they didn't like me.
I wasn't there to be liked.
Women logic. Lol
Carli Lloyd and Alexi Lalas attacked the USWNT non stop. I thought she worked for the Fox Corporation.
Booo 🍅🍅🍅
carli is such a whiner. can she please go away.
Go away Meagan
Good interview. Love the insight but she’s a duesh 😂 she dogged on former teammates for no reason
