Christian Pulisic Vows ‘Better Days’ for US Fans Ahead of Crucial Gregg Berhalter Decision

Dark clouds continue to hover over the U.S. Men’s National Team ever since their Copa America 2024 heartbreak. A premature exit from the group stages keeps them in the negative limelight. In the meantime, uncertainty also remains on the future of Gregg Berhalter over continuing as the team’s head coach. With a lot on their plate, skipper Christian Pulisic has come forward and assured ardent USMNT fans that there are ‘Better days ahead’ for the nation.

The AC Milan forward took to Instagram and shared a picture of himself on the story. Additionally, he wrote a caption, “You deserve and will get better US fans. Better days ahead ❤🇺🇸.” Interestingly, the reassurance comes after their recent disappointment in the CONMEBOL-based tournament, that too as a host nation. While the bar was set for Berhalter and Co. to at least make it to the semifinals, they failed to even make it to the knockout stages.

The Star and Stripes have always remained a subject of criticism throughout the years. Despite having exceptional talents and wunderkind in the roster, the MNT is still looking for their major breakthrough in major competitions like the FIFA World Cup or even the Copa America. The worry takes a double fold as Team USA is hosting the next edition of the World Cup. Hence, the expectations are high for them to at least make the best out of their presence.

While the nation’s case seems to be hopeless to many, Pulisic claims all will soon change for the Americans on the international front of the beautiful game. Yet, the question looms how exactly the USMNT are going to bring a revolutionary change in their fortunes? Would the transition include a change in management? Speaking of which, does Berhalter’s future lie with USMNT?
