“The USMNT dropped us all,” said Polanco while highlighting the national disappointment after the ugly matches.
With high expectations and Mauricio Pocsettino taking the reinsMany hoped for a transparent transition and continuous success. However, reality seems less optimistic. Guerreros expressed his uncertainty about the 3-4-3 formation under Pochettino, noting that he did not behave very well as hoped against Panama.
“Pochettino was very wrong,” said Guerreros. “I saw (Joe) Scally up on the left and I said to myself:” No! … but the 3-4-3 is the first time that I have really seen it under Pochettino for the effect with all the big names. Obviously, you want Sergiño Dest and Antonee Robinson to it, but this is the first time I see him and I said to myself: “I don't know, Bro.” “”

An important factor that the hosts have discussed is the motivation gap between American players and their international counterparts. As Guerreros has suggested, other nations tend to see their national teams as their “army”, bringing an additional spike to matches with the United States, combined with socio-political tensions highlighted by Polanco, seems to have fueled the performances of Panama and Canada.
The insight of coaligans highlights a worrying trend: while the USMNT continues to boast talent, the performance is not entirely aligned. Polanco and Guerreros suggest that this could encourage football to reassess its strategies and respond to the deep causes of these inconsistencies. Without the pressure of the qualification of the World Cup, Polanco stressed the importance of concentrating to ensure the competitive pre-tourroi game.

“Minus three to three scales? I'm two negatives,” said Polanco, an appropriate reflection of the current national feeling. Always with time on the Pochettino side, the coming months will be crucial to refine the strategies and build a coherent team.
