Adams: USMNT tunes out Donovan, Dempsey 'noise'
Briefly

Tyler Adams addressed growing criticism of the current United States men's national soccer team from former players like Landon Donovan and Clint Dempsey. As the team prepares for the Concacaf Gold Cup, Adams stressed the importance of tuning out external noise and focusing on team development. Notably, star player Christian Pulisic is skipping the June camp for rest, sparking debate among former players about commitment. Despite losing four consecutive matches, including a heavy defeat to Switzerland, Adams remains optimistic about the team’s progress and approaches to their upcoming challenges.
Whether it was Gold Cup, whether it was Copa América, whether it was Confederations Cup, whether it was the World Cup, I wasn't going to miss competitions.
The noise on the outside is the noise on the outside. I think we need to focus on what we need to do as a group and continue to build.
I can't help but think about our guys on vacation not wanting to play in Gold Cup.
This is part of the process. You're going to win games. You're going to lose games. It's about continuing to build that.
