JAKE NISSE IN MIAMI: Clint Dempsey says it's too late for US Soccer to find a new men's head coach if the national team is dissatisfies with the Copa America next summer. Gregg Berhalter was re-hired in June after his deal came to an end following the World Cup, with the US, Canada, and Mexico hosting World Cup looming in the not-so-distant future. Although Berhalter has 2026 in his sights, Dempsey believes that if US Soccer does not go well in a tournament that features Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay next year, it will not go well.

On a star-studded panel for this week's Champions League action, the former Arsenal and Barcelona striker was joined by Micah Richards, Clint Dempsey, and Jamie Carragher. The ex-Premier League stars were given special player ratings containing six key characteristics that contributed to a total score of 100. With respect to the other three panellists, there was only ever going to be one winner and Henry dully received the highest rating of the four at 92 on a newly-released 'legacy card'

During CBS Sports' coverage of the EUFA Champions League, Henry, Charlie Davies, Clint Dempsey, Jamie Carragher, and Micah Richards debated the tense discussion. Davies' earlier half of the discussion was mainly dominated by Davies, who said that Americans are seen with a skewed perspective and that people are reluctant to be acknowledged. On the other hand, Carragher and Richards argued that they have no problem with American players and coaches, but that Europeans are naturally better at the game. As the panel awaited his presence, Henry picked up his microphone in the middle of the fracas.

Jamie Carragher was unable to attend CBS' Champions League show in Miami on Tuesday afternoon, but the Liverpool legend didn't let his co-pundits forget about him so easily. CBS' soccer team is in Miami for the next two days, swapping their London studio for the sunshine of South Florida. However, Carragher was late to the live broadcast after covering Fulham's 3-2 victory over Wolves in London on Monday Night Football. Rather, Clint Dempsey of the United States filled Carragher's position on the usual panel of Thierry Henry, Micah Richards, and host Kate Abdo for the first games of Week 5 of the group stage on Tuesday.

Micah Richards and the rest of the CBS crew got into the American spirit at their Destination Miami display by playing football with Dolphins star Tyreek Hill. Following on from last season's visit to New York City, Richards, Thierry Henry, Clint Dempsey, Jamie Carragher, Jamie Carragher, and host Kate Abdo are in Florida this week for the Champions League broadcasts. Hill joined the panel for a special guest appearance within minutes of being on air, and Richards and Dempsey were not about to let the opportunity pass by.

Micah Richards, the first one to stay away from the lime light, arrived in Miami on Tuesday for CBS' 'Destination Miami' roadshow. The former England, Man City, and Aston Villa soccer star appeared on the Champions League's star-studded panel with Thierry Henry and Clint Dempsey, and he whipped the audience into roaring applause at the start of the tournament. As has become a tradition on CBS nights, host Kate Abdo introduced the team, but Richards kept some banter at the end of the line.

In a comeback to CBS' newest Champions League show, Clint Dempsey and Micah Richards reenacted one of their old Premier League bust-ups. When the former top-division players became embroiled in a tense brawl between Fulham and Manchester City in 2007, they went head-to-head after shouting each other out for the ball. The two men were eventually separated by then-City goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel as tempers raged before they received yellow cards.

Carragher was able to remember Red Star's penalty shootout victory, change of tactics, and their run to the final. That was five years before Carragher began his professional football career, demonstrating his dedication to learning about the game.

The former L.A. Galaxy striker holds the world record for the most international assists (58) and is tied for the most international goals scored by an American (57). Klinsmann, who coached the United States men's national team for five years from 2011 to 2016, was omitted from the World Cup in Brazil nine years ago.

Clint Dempsey, a USMNT legend, admitted that Fulham's line had resulted in him suffering a broken hand out of jealousy. Dempsey related how he punched a window in the locker room after being told he wasn't participating in a Europa League match for Fulham while speaking on CBS Sports' 'Kickin It'. 'It was a Europa League game, and players who were still recovering from injury and playing as a sub, progressed, or whatever,' Dempsey said.' "So they call me up before the game at home and say, "oh you're gonna be starting." I'm like, "Yeah, I know, that's what happens when you're in the starting lineup." "You should be back, you should be starting." And I get there and it's like, "oh your not gonna be starting now," and I'm like, "huh?"'

Many in the American soccer community, including US soccer legend Clint Dempsey, have been stunned by the US Soccer Federation's decision to re-hire Gregg Berhalter to head the US men's national team. Dempsey reacted to the fact that Berhalter will return to the position he held until New Years while watching CBS Sports' coverage of the CONCACAF Nations League semifinals. Berhalter was not resigned to his position until the USSF launched an investigation into suspected domestic assault.

Patrick Viera, the former Crystal Palace chairman, has reportedly expressed an interest in becoming the next head coach of the United States men's national team. Viera was contacted by the United States Soccer Federation, and although those talks haven't progressed, Viera is extremely interested by America's challenge, and believes the young team has a lot of promise. In March, the 46-year-old Frenchman was fired at Palace after the team had a disappointing 0-5-6 record. If there is one positive takeaway from Viera's time with the Eagles, it's that he mentored Chris Richards, an American center back on the USMNT.

Chad Johnson seems to have enjoyed his time at The Soccer Tournament this year, and he hopes to return in 2024 with some A-list firm. Johnson, a ten-year Cincinnati Bengals player, was disqualified in the seven-a-side tournament with Nati SC, an alumni group of original FC Cincinnati players. And though his team in the Cary, North Carolina-based tournament didn't progress beyond the group level, Johnson already has big plans for the upcoming season.

Exclusive BY JAKE NISSE: Since the conclusion of the World Cup, US Soccer has recruited a sports director, 'vice president of sport,' two interim head coaches, and, of course, let Gregg Berhalter's deal come to an end. However, with the Nations League and Gold Cup starting this month, Berhalter's replacement head coach will succeed him, assuming a new one is not yet available. And the USA's joint all-time top scorer hasn't caught the game.

Wrexham's time in the spotlight is unlikely to end anytime soon, with Chelsea and Manchester United lining up as friendly rivals in the United States. According to The Telegraph, the non-league club could face the Blues and Red Devils in the back yard of its controversial owners during a preseason tour. Both Premier League giants have been 'offered' fixtures against the Welsh club in the survey.

Those who remembranced the Dutch team's humiliating World Cup loss on Saturday, former Team USA stars Alexi Lalas, Landon Donovan, and Clint Dempsey all offered some takeaways as the youth team prepares for the 2026 tournament in North America. We're back to 2018, where we were when we didn't qualify for the World Cup,' Dempsey said during Fox Sports' post-match service. 'They have made this world believe once more.' Dempsey's argument is unquestionably correct. The United States has gone from a disastrous failure to qualify for the 2018 World Cup in Russia to a good group stage in Qatar, combining Wales and England, while beating Iran, 1-0.

Clint Dempsey believes captain Tyler Adams made his first mistake of the World Cup against the United States by failing to track Memphis Depay's run before he scored. Depay was unmarked as he converted a Denzel Dumfries cutback into a good finish in the 10th minute of the game in Qatar, after a long run from deep. Adams may have done more to avoid the target. Adams was practically shoulder-to-shoulder with Depay in the center circle as Holland attacked down the right.

The United States men's national soccer team's quadrennial aim is to reach a level beyond the World Cup's group stage. Despite the country's disappointing failure to qualify for Russia in 2018, the Americans are used to winning the World Cup for the first time since 1990. But while qualifying against Cuba and Belize has been relatively straightforward, winning World Cup matches has been much more difficult. In World Cup play, the American men are just 9-8-19.

Clint Dempsey, a former USMNT attacker, has ordered USA coach Gregg Berhalter to reshuffle his squad's tactics ahead of Tuesday's critical World Cup game against Iran, but he believes Gio Reyna should stay as a substitute. Eric Wynalda, another former USMNT attacker, reported on Saturday that there is a 'rift' between Reyna and Berhalter and the USA team requires the 19-year-old Borussia Dortmund attacker to be in the starting lineup. He was in the last seven minutes in England's 0-0 draw on Friday, but with the United States only scoring once in two games, it's unclear who should play in attack against Iran.

Clint Dempsey, the founder of the United StatesMNT, has backed his colleagues in surviving Group B and qualify for the knockout stages at the World Cup in Qatar. Gregg Berhalter's side is ranked above Wales and Iran in the FIFA rankings, but they will need to be in top form to advance to the final 16 of their first World Cup tournament in eight years. Dempsey, on the other hand, has no doubt that they will lead it, and that the USMNT squad's outstanding young crop of players, many of which have ply their trade in the Premier League, will keep them alive.

INTERVIEW EXCLUSIVE: Danny Murphy speaks with US legend Clint Dempsey about American soccer, the danger men for Gareth Southgate, and his own emotional union with former England goalkeeper Robert Green. Dempsey was the best coach I've ever had. He came first, Jamie Carragher second, and Robbie Keane third. He went from rural Texas to the Premier League and the World Cup thanks to his incredible drive. Even if he'd been playing well, he'd be angry unless he'd directly influenced a game with a goal or assist. It was an elite attitude that paid off against England in the 2010 World Cup, with his unexpected pot shot smashing past goalkeeper Rob Green's gloves to earn the United States a memorable 1-1 draw in Rustenburg. When the draw came out and lived in England, there was a lot of buzz, but all I heard was that America would be a good team to play against,' he says. It was added to the chip on my shoulder.' You'll always have to be more than a European player in order to get into the team,' because you're an American.'

Qatar Airways, the state-owned airline, would be a significant sponsor of FOX's coverage, ensuring that the Qatari government's production is effectively underwritten. According to anonymous sources familiar with FOX's development, the network was initially planned to use mainly remote production and transfer a small group of employees and experts to Qatar. Once the agreement with Qatar Airways was reached and finalized, the network's plans were changed. According to reports, the deal contained comped flights to the host country, presumably on the state-owned airline.

The United States' influence on international soccer is notably limited. Since completing the country's first appearance on soccer's biggest stage in Uruguay 92 years ago, the Americans have struggled through a four-decade qualifying drought, four group stage departures, and one measly quarterfinal appearance on the country's biggest stage. After being defeated by Trinidad and Tobago, the worst of it came four years ago when the dazzling US squad began to qualify for the tournament for the first time. If there is a high point in US Soccer history, it came decades before the game has made it mainstream, but that doesn't mean it's any less important. The 'Miracle on Grass,' America's 1-0 victory over 70-1 favorites England at the 1950 World Cup in Brazil was one of the biggest upsets in World Cup history, even though its effect was felt more on one side of the Atlantic than on the other.
