In this episode of the 3four3 podcast, Gary Kleiban and Benny Rogers expose the ongoing “brain rot” in American soccer.
They go over MLS and US Soccer’s outdated dismissal of rondos, the impossibility of “playing the right way” at youth, college, or pro levels, and the national team’s struggles under coaches like Berhalter.
Kicking off with Ousmane Dembele’s Balon d’Or win, Gary calls individual awards nonsense in a team sport, echoing Arsene Wenger’s disdain and comparing Dembele’s raw power to Lamine Yamal’s complete playmaking.
Dive into fiery audience comments: Debunking claims that rondos are for “lazy coaches,” proving the myth that American kids can’t handle possession soccer (backed by Brian Kleiban’s pro-developing track record), and addressing why coaches cling to sunk costs in licenses.
Gary shares open invites for critics to debate on the show, highlights why practitioners can’t speak freely in a monopolized system, and offers parents a 3-key-principle guide to spotting great coaches: possession-based, winning-focused, with intense yet caring sessions. Plus, a roast of an MLS demographics comment overlooking Latino talent.
00:00 Intro
If you are a coach or a parent of a player, we’ve also codified and made available the remarkable work of a coach who trained and shepherded many, many players from the age of 9 all the way to graduating them to being professionals.
The products that show you how this was done, is what sponsors this episode.
Get aboard a proven path, a legitimately proven path, not something copied or synthesized from elsewhere, or worse. No, but rather a first hand account and curriculum directly from the source, from the practitioners themselves, whose work is unprecedented in the American soccer environment.
