How US Soccer Landed Mauricio Pochettino

How did the USMNT go from crisis mode after crashing out of the group stage at Copa América to landing one of the most respected managers in the game?  On today’s episode, Taylor sits down with US Soccer CEO JT Batson to get the inside story on how he helped convince Mauricio Pochettino, who has coached notable European clubs like Chelsea, PSG, and Tottenham, to come to the States. Hint: It involves an assist from one of his friends, new USWNT head coach Emma Hayes, who recently led her team to Olympic gold.  Plus, Taylor’s thoughts on the MLS teams to watch heading into the playoffs.  Offside With Taylor Twellman is a Major League Soccer podcast, produced by Apple TV and Rain Delay Media.
