Mauricio Pochettino… yeah that Mauricio Pochettino has emerged as a candidate for the vacant U.S. men's national team coaching post. me. (Related: Gareth Southgate resigns as England manager, rumoured to be in the running for US soccer manager position)
The Argentine parted ways with Chelsea in May (something I still haven't gotten over as a Blues fan). One campaign As a manager, it has certainly been a bit of a struggle for Chelsea this season, but nevertheless, the loss was still a bit of a shock, especially given that the Blues had improved their form towards the end of the season to rise to sixth place.
Pochettino's managerial career began with a stint in Spain with Espanyol, before he eventually moved to the English Premier League, captaining Southampton and then Tottenham Hotspur, most notably leading them to the 2019 Champions League final.

Now Mauricio Pochettino?
The USMNT is on a perfect run right now and my favorite choices would be Klopp or Pochettino, with De La Fuente as a third option.
