Landon Donovan

Javier, I feel like we're friends. I want to call you Javi. So Javi, listen, don't go back and watch the games, as Landon suggested. You're just completely and utterly wrong. So we're not going to have that conversation for a team, any team, US, England, Spain, to get to a World Cup quarterfinal. You can't be lucky. It's impossible. It's impossible to be lucky.

That team was incredible, and they performed incredibly well. That's the end of that story. What Landon said about Bruce Arena coming on board, everything was 100% accurate. The chips were so far stacked against him once we lost as a team, once we lost those first two games in qualifying. I am not a decision maker at U.S. Soccer. I've never been.

But I was a part of, and this is, you earned the right as a senior player who's given everything for your country, that in these dire crisis moments, when a manager gets fired, you are part of big conversations. Right, Landon? So you're part of conversations with the heads of U.S. soccer. It doesn't mean you make the final decision, but they want to know what's going on on the inside.

And as the conversation started to surface about who would next take over, I was certainly one of the powerful voices that said, if it's Bruce Arena, he gives us the best possible opportunity to drag ourselves out of this hole. And we were under no illusions of what hole we were in. What I would say is that team didn't qualify based on performances on the field. That's on the players.

That's completely on the players. That was a failure on our part, but Bruce Arena gave us every opportunity to succeed, and we nearly did it. And by the way, had we gotten the result in Trinidad, it wouldn't have been like we were world beaters. It would have been like we just barely scraped by, and we did what we hoped to do. But even the game, like you're saying...

The Mexico game, that was the Michael Bradley chip from midfield or something like that, right? But it's still not a game you expect to win going down there because it's so difficult. If you win and put the performance in, you're happy. But ultimately, we had to be perfect and we weren't. And that's as simple as that.

Don't get started. Don't start. Don't start.

Don't get started. Don't start. Don't start.
