That kind of accountability, that kind of conversation is important.
Because it's what every other nation does.
When they cover a World Cup, everyone, every player comes under the microscope.

Do I push back against some of those ideas and conversations and arguments about Alphonso Davies' patriotism?
I know he loves playing for Canada.
I have watched him love playing for Canada.

And he didn't make this squad.
That is going to be a level of attrition with this squad that there was in 2022 because that's who Jesse Marsh is.
Jesse Marsh is going to look at guys who fall into his give it all you got.
We press and we're aggressive.
We don't back down from anybody.
