About what?
This.


Cristiano Ronaldo "I have many titles with clubs, but there's nothing better than winning for Portugal. [...] It's our nation, our people.

So Cristiano Ronaldo even at 40 was in tears when Portugal beat Spain in the Nations League Final.

Maybe Christian Pulisic and the rest of the USMNT could learn from him.
Still no response from mjg.
So if US players cried more you think that would somehow translate into wins after the fact? Give it a couple years, FIFA might let us play in the UEFA Nations League. You’re barking up the wrong tree if you think flag waving or jingoistic appeals mean anything to me.
Not if they cried more.

My point was Cristiano Ronaldo (at the age of 40) had a long season as well. He showed he cared by showing up and participating.

Pulisic shows he doesn’t care by not showing up to the Good Cup.

He doesn’t realize how important it is for the team to be together a year before the World Cup.

Now maybe they will go on a run and make the semi-finals.


But, maybe they don’t.

Which will be a bad look for him.

Clearly he doesn’t care what anyone thinks of him.
Still no response from mjg.
Maybe we can get Ronaldo on a short term loan for the summer

Doesn’t work that way.

Clearly not interested in discussing this.

He was already asked to play two games this summer.
