“Pochettino knows what he is doing. If he didn’t care or wasn’t committed he could make his life easy by calling up the same old squad every time. He is doing it the hard way, trying to make sure he hasn’t missed any hidden gems or not noticed any red flags." www.thedailysoccer.com/p/poch-is-no...

Poch is no 'phony', he's building a squad

The USMNT are still far from the level needed but this window has shown that Mauricio Pochettino knows exactly what he is doing.

Maybe we'll get less of the hysterical anti-Poch stuff now. He's not on vacation. He's not just picking up a pay check and taking it easy. Those were always silly insults. Things are starting to come together. But still a long way off being what the USMNT hopes to be in June.

Messi is paid $20.45 million by Inter Miami and also earns from a revenue-sharing agreement with MLS partners Apple and Adidas who were both heavily involved in the ASG. A 20 minute cameo and a few autographs would have kept everyone happy. League ultimately had no choice but to enforce their rule.

Pulisic has played 120 games for club and country in the past two years. 120. And most of those games have been in Serie A and European competition. None of his strongest critics have ever been close to that level of workload.
