On Dec. 2, 2018, the United States Men’s National Team announced Gregg Berhalter as the team’s next head coach, leaving the Columbus Crew after five seasons to take on the challenge of rebuilding an aging United States squad. He left the Crew after leading the team to four playoff appearances and a berth in the 2015 MLS Cup Final. In his wake, the Black & Gold, under new ownership, hired Caleb Porter, who had bested the Crew in the 2015 final, after he left the Portland Timbers in 2018.
With Columbus off this weekend and Berhalter’s USMNT looking to book a spot in the World Cup Finals, Massive Report thought it was a good time to look at how these head coaches compare from their time with the Black & Gold.
