No, it's now sort of getting to that point to where it's put up or shut up.

And so from that sense, I would have realistic expectations as to what this team can be in the World Cup.

seeing where they measure against teams that are the sort of teams and caliber of teams that they're gonna have to play against once they get into the knockout stage.

These are the sort of teams that you're gonna have to get through.

And this is the sort of talent level that you're gonna have to get through.

So I would like for these games to be close.

I don't need the US to win these matches.

It'd be great if they did, but I don't need to.

I wanna see that these games are not a mismatch.

Because if they're a mismatch, then it sends a real, real cold

chilling message down to the fan base, but also to the players that have been in this camp and the ones that are not in this camp, and it's going like, uh-oh, we are not as close as we thought we were.

In fact, we may be further than we thought we were.

That is not the way that you want to go into a World Cup, thinking we have a lot of work to do.

I really do.

Let me, let me, can I have a conversation directly with the production, right here.

Beto, we're not doing this anymore, okay?

We are not doing this anymore.

Please, up until we have certainty that this is about to happen, I do not want to see a picture of Ricardo Pepe and his mangled arm, whether he's going to Fulham

or not, so unless he's going somewhere else, I, I, Alejandro Enrique Moreno Riera, will not speak on the subject again.

We cannot continue to play and pander to whatever PSV and Ernie Seward want to happen when they want it to happen or not in this case.
