Possibly an unpopular #USWNT opinion, but maybe you have let some players hang on too long. Maybe the teams average age needs to get down into the 20svand not the 30s. Maybe there isn't the depth that we used to have and need to relookbat development of the future players. Maybe the rest of Europe is just better.

I suspect a coaching change but a coach can't change the fundamental problem that the depth isn't there.

@kingargyle I think we need a coaching change AND work on the system. And also to realize that maybe its ok for a single nation to not be dominant all the time (though if we’re dominant all the time I won’t complain)? Tbh there’s no reason why we couldn’t have been playing all year like we did today against Sweden (pre-PKs).
@yamainu yeah coaching change is going to happen. As for a system anything better than just go out and do your thing. Still think we need to get younger some are just to complacent.
@kingargyle Now I want to calculate the playing-time adjusted average age of the USWNT over the last few tournaments.
@morphosis7 Olympics will definitely skew the results. Had lots of retirements after that.
