We need to “simplifying things, but also focus on the individual and the player in terms of development” - especially with elite players as well.  We talk with Glenn Crooks, known broadcaster, journalist, podcast host, and soccer coach about how we can approach changes in the soccer landscape and what coaches might do. He expresses the need for coaches to develop passion in players and make it fun, whether they are at the grassroots or professional. About Glenn Crooks Glenn has called NYCFC's matches since their inaugural MLS season in 2015 and also covers the team as a soccer writer for Pro Soccer USA.

Brian Dunseth and I jumped on the phone to record a conversation that neither of us really prepared for.

The U.S. men's national team missing out on the 2018 World Cup sent shockwaves through the soccer world and saw Sunil Gulati call an end to his 12-year reign as USSF president. In the presidential election that followed, one word rang louder than all others: 'change'. The eight candidates vying for the job all promised change in some form or another, whether it be to do with the current scouting networks, pay-for-play, inequality in the women's game or the need for promotion/relegation. When asked about the federation's top priority though, the election's eventual winner, Carlos Cordeiro, said his first order of business would be securing co-hosting rights for the 2026 World Cup - along with Canada and Mexico. Using the new president's comments as a jump off point, Kevin Egan sits down with NASL interim commissioner Rishi Sehgal, 13-year MLS and NASL veteran Hunter Freeman, five-year NWSL veteran Stephanie Ochs, and a man who has seen (and called) it all, Phil Schoen, to discuss the future of the sport in America.

I will be joined by Kartik Krishnaiyer from World Soccer Talk and for the first time Soccer Reporter extrodinare Andrea Canales to discuss this interesting topic.  

A vote for Kyle Martino is actually a vote for a network of people that he believes can solve the problems in U.S. Soccer. He’s going to bring them together in early December to flesh out a “progress plan” that he outlines on his site. He’s already hard at work building this consensus, and this interview has a few glitches because he was on the run as we chatted. He had to run at one point to do a live interview, and the phone connection dropped as he hopped from train to train. The former MLS player and current (though on leave) NBC analyst grasps the complexities of the U.S. Soccer presidency for which he’s running. Like a couple of other candidates, he’s out talking with youth and adult constituencies to find out what they need. He has mixed feelings about the incumbent, Sunil Gulati, whom Martino firmly believes has run his course as president but still has a lot to offer U.S. Soccer. He’s shocked to hear --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/ranting-soccer-dad/support
