""Maybe I think we need to stop the press conference," said Pochettino. "I need to go to the dressing room, come back and start again the press conference. Because it's like the opposite, like we lost 5-1. "I am the USA coach! No janitor. Tell me which regular player you are talking about? Because I don't understand what regular player means. "Maybe I am tired and I don't understand your English question.""
""To be honest, [I am] very disappointed in the first two questions because I don't know what you expect I am going to say when you say that no natural players were playing today or in the World Cup. "Very sad. Very sad situation.""
Mauricio Pochettino, USMNT head coach, expressed visible frustration at a reporter who questioned the absence of 'regular' players after a 5-1 friendly victory over Uruguay. The United States defeated Marcelo Bielsa's side at Raymond James Stadium with Alex Freeman scoring twice and goals from Sebastian Berhalter, Diego Luna and Tanner Tessmann; Giorgian de Arrascaeta scored for Uruguay and Rodrigo Bentancur was sent off. Pochettino rejected the premise, insisting he is the USA coach and calling the line of questioning "very sad" and saying he was "very disappointed". The win matched the US's biggest ever over South American opposition.
