Thierry Henry, Clint Dempsey and Charlie Davies discussing perception of American players in Europe

Read that a few years ago. Now, I’ve only been following football since '07 which is around the time time Dempsey made his move to Fulham. He was a thrill to watch and I’d reckon he def helped change some opinions around US players at the time with the likes of Pulisic or McKennie continuing to this day.

But just curious for a discussion, how prevalent are the stereotypes of US players today? Is it simply just banter or are there still managers who just don’t rate US players all that much.

    Rory Jennings or whatever his name is thinks Pulisic is shit, despite Pulisic pulling chelsea through both legs against real madrid in their UCL winning season…

    So id say yea. Or he’s gaslighting.
