The Athletic FC Podcast · How far can Pochettino take the USA? · 20 Jun 2026 podcast

I mean, one thing you have to say about the United States, there's always a lot of sport competing for attention at any one time. voice-verified

And soccer has had to cope with that as it's been building through MLS, through Premier League clubs touring there every single summer. voice-verified

I know from going to the Club World Cup last year with Chelsea and covering pre-season there before, just how many more people are tracking the Premier League as well as the domestic league over there. voice-verified

But major tournaments, these meaningful games happening on your soil, I think just have a different level of impact. voice-verified

And if the host nation is playing as well as the United States clearly are right now, sorry, one of three host nations, but it can definitely, definitely help. voice-verified

Americans love a winner and there are already signs from the TV ratings, I believe, in the United States that the first two games have done really well. voice-verified

Well, I think when you look at the things that are valuable in international football, yes, you have to get the tactics right and the details on the pitch. voice-verified

But it's just as much about building an atmosphere. voice-verified

We've seen Thomas Tuchel talk about this with England a lot. voice-verified

Get the right blend of personalities, create a positive feeling in a camp. voice-verified

And I think... voice-verified

albeit at club level, that's always been one of Pochettino's big strengths. voice-verified

And he did it at Chelsea as well, to be fair, in his one season there. voice-verified

He knows how to create a good environment. voice-verified

He's always talking about positive energy. voice-verified

You know, we've written a lot about the lemons. voice-verified

I don't know how many lemons there are in the United States camp right now. voice-verified

Syracuse or somewhere, yeah. voice-verified

But he's clearly managed that. voice-verified

You can see the way the United States are playing. voice-verified
