He believes that the system is working well and that whoever is named as the new coach of the senior side will have a lot of talented young players to choose from.

He said that the youth development program is working well in the United States and that there are some talented players there. He said that that the youth teach coaches are doing a great job and that you should give them credit for that.

He said that the United States will become strong again in the future and that he has no doubt that they will be participating in the future World Cups. He said that Major League Soccer teams are also putting greater emphasis on young players and this means that the players are getting accustomed to competitive football from a young age.
