Gregg Berhalter And The US National Team Camp Roster.

On his second day training his first batch of US national team players, USMNT head coach Gregg Berhalter followed his players off the pitch in the midday sun, a dozen or so miles from the mountains in the background on the Mexican border, soaking in the good weather and relaxed vibe among players.

With the camp being the annual collection of players out of season, normally MLS players, this experimental phase for the coach and his current players offers clues into how future USMNT teams under Berhalter might look.

Michael Bradley , Gyasi Zardes , and Kellyn Acosta are the most experienced USMNT players in the side, but Berhalter was quick to point out that neither previous caps nor age mattered in terms of being selected.

One coming challenge for Berhalter will be mixing his MLS-based players with those playing their club soccer abroad.
