“I cannot relate to someone — in his position, who is a national team player — opting out, not wanting to represent your team.” 🇺🇸 Alexi Lalas on Christian Pulisic sitting out this summer and not joining the USMNT at the Gold Cup

@FOXSoccer @AlexiLalas Sorry Alexi, I want him to have a long, productive career including being in top form for the upcoming World Cup, and if that means rest this summer, good!

@FOXSoccer @AlexiLalas Just cause you can’t relate doesn’t mean your right or smart.

@AlexiLalas You are out of touch: 1. He's in contract negotiations for the biggest financial deal of his life making way more money than you ever dreamed of making 2. The gold cup is pointless 3. everyone from concacaf blades him the entire time he's on the field

Keep an eye on the season. 👀 Introducing our latest feature: the standings. Now you can see live on your server which team is how in the league compared to other teams.

@FOXSoccer @AlexiLalas Clint would never. Landon would never

@FOXSoccer @AlexiLalas Gold Cup is a domestic based B-team cup, always has been, until now. Man needs time off, it is on Poch to develop and pick the winning talent for this mid tourney

@AlexiLalas for all the talk about dual nats not being “true americans” those players are showing up even when they were injured most the season

@FOXSoccer @AlexiLalas Generation of soft, entitled (RICH) babies. Country pride at an all time low. Hell, half of them don’t even play/live in the USA @AlexiLalas

@AlexiLalas Not mad at it. He’s injury prone, has played a lot of minutes and you know who he is and how he plays. He will ball out at the World Cup and this summer is his last break before then.

@AlexiLalas He does not deserve to wear a Captain’s armband for the USA ever again.
