Gary Neville abandoned his philosophy and flamed out as Valencia head coach. USMNT Gregg Berhalter should heed the warning to replicate the same process.
Gregg Berhalter has been keen to implement the ‘system’ as U.S. Men’s National Team head coach. He has a specific approach that involves very detailed individual roles. He has attempted to install this scheme with the national team. It has endured varying success.
While there are those that believe in laying down the foundations, which involves instilling basic values, philosophies and tactical tenets, it is more difficult to do this at the international level than it is as a club manager.
