British sports journalists are expected to appear at U.S. Soccer’s training center in Fayetteville, Georgia, on Friday, when U.S. coach Mauricio Pochettino is scheduled to hold his first press conference since reports emerged that he is Manchester United’s top choice to replace Michael Carrick. On Thursday, two days before the USMNT’s first-leg Concacaf Nations League quarterfinal against Haiti, Pochettino’s future dominated the discussion when Folarin Balogun and Sebastian Berhalter met with the media.
“If I had a vote, I’d like to keep things the way they are,” Balogun said. “I think things have been working well. We have a clear sense of identity. We have a clear playing style. Whenever you have a top coach you want them to stay, it’s a no-brainer. And for us it’s no different.”
