If USA soccer moves on from Gregg Berhalter, who should be the coaching candidates to replace him?

Following up a solid World Cup with this type of Copa America, changes are needed

After getting knocked out of Copa America in the group stage following a 1-0 loss to Uruguay, the United States have become the first host nation to not advance to the knockout stage of Copa America, reaching a crossroads as a federation. Chants of "Fire Gregg" rang out at Arrowhead Stadium following the loss as patience is running out among the fanbase following regression after the 2022 World Cup under manager Gregg Berhalter. 

In his post-match press conference, Berhalter mentioned that there will be a review of the performance at the tournament and what needs to change going forward, but he also clarified it's not his decision if he's around for the review. U.S. Soccer technical director Matt Crocker chose to re-hire Berhalter after his contract expired but now is the time to make a decision on if he's the person who should manage this team at the 2026 World Cup.

Expectations will be through the roof for the USMNT playing in an anticipated World Cup on home soil and looking at what Berhalter has done as manager of the USMNT, he hasn't proven that he should be the person to lead the team in this tournament. When asked at the end of the press conference if he's the person who should lead the team moving forward, Berhater's answer was simple stating, "Yes."
