Total Soccer Show: USMNT, Champions League, EPL, and more ...

Taylor calls up The Athletic's Paul Tenorio to discuss Gregg Berhalter taking over as head coach of the US Men's National Team. Paul was at the introductory press conference, and gives his thoughts on the media event itself, as well as the search process and what Berhalter will bring to the national team.

If you're tired of hearing about the last 14 months and the search process as a whole, skip to 18:58. That's when we get into Berhalter's tactics, temperament, and leadership.
