Message: [QUOTE="DeGrozz, post: 2836580, member: 205"] Interesting take. I don’t remember hearing or thinking that Berhalter was giving preferential treatment to a player, but it’s natural for a coach to prefer people who have brought him success before — it’s kinda the reason international coaching is so fluid. I haven’t been following the USMNT schedule enough to figure out when we’ll have a mixed (domestic and intl) roster, but I guess that will be our first time seeing how he plays the twin pivots role. To me, it’s pretty obvious Adams and McKennie are better all around players, but they aren’t fantastic distributors that Berhalter may be looking for in that role. I hope he drops some of that responsibility out of the midfield to Brooks out of the back, because Berhalter is going to try to find our wings going forward and brooks can hit those passes 35+ yards on the money.
