USMNT star, Weston McKennie has come out to hail Mauricio Pochettino for bringing back the grittiness that the USA is always known for. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, South American football is all about the hard tackles not caring who you’re playing against, and Poch has definitely brought that back to US football.
McKennie added that adding a little bit of dirtiness on the pitch is not something Americans aren’t used to.
His words, “I think honestly, [he] put the, kind of, savageness back into the team, that South American feeling, which is obviously going into tackles hard, not caring who you’re playing against, maybe a little bit of dirtiness, I guess you could say, without contradicting the sport itself, but a little bit of dirtiness in the game and that grittiness that the USA is always known for.”
WOW.
