Christian Pulisic recently expressed his belief that new head coach Mauricio Pochettino can bring a “new winning mentality” to the team. The American winger, who plays for Chelsea in the English Premier League, spoke about the impact that Pochettino can have on the team’s mindset.
“It’s clear that we need to change our mentality and start winning more games,” Pulisic said in a recent interview. “Pochettino has a proven track record of success and I think he can instill that winning mentality in us.”
Pulisic is not the only player who has spoken out about the team’s mentality. Forward Jozy Altidore also commented on the issue, saying, “We need to start believing in ourselves and playing with confidence. Pochettino can help us do that.”
In addition to the players, coaches have also acknowledged the need for a change in mentality. Assistant coach Jesse Marsch stated, “Pochettino is known for his ability to motivate players and get the best out of them. I think he can really push our players to be more competitive and hungry for success.”
Pochettino himself is optimistic about the team’s potential. “I see a lot of talent in this squad and I believe that with the right mentality, we can achieve great things,” the Argentine manager said in a recent press conference.
Overall, there is a sense of optimism surrounding the team as they look to turn things around under Pochettino’s leadership. With players like Pulisic and Altidore expressing confidence in the new coach’s ability to bring about a winning mentality, there is hope that the U.S. Soccer squad can achieve success in the near future.
