My favorite Jermaine Jones moment was his banger vs Portugal at Brazil 2014. That goal came at a time of need & is a Legendary feat.
-
He’s right about being under appreciated. Jones is still on my all time usmnt roster in the midfield.
-
JJ is one who can never be questioned for his commitment to USMNT, especially being a hustler and pillar in that 2014 WC. His goal vs Portugal was awesome!! I hit my leg on the table so damn hard 😂
-
Jermaine is probably the best CDM we have ever had. Super under appreciated and I remember the vitriol spewed out about him because he wasn’t born in the US. This is still a stain on US soccer in both the fans, media, and some former players (especially an outspoken one).
-
That World Cup goal he scored was astounding
-
This is the best show out there. Please never change the format. Obviously the talent is great as well
-
The way American pundits and fans played in Jermaine’s face about his allegiance…..
-
Love that he came to the city of Fresno! Been going the soccer games since a kid now we got a legend coaching the team!
-
USL-1 isn't a poor place to start. Heck, I'm happy we're getting a USL-1 team up here in Spokane.
-
I watched him play at Schalke and thought he was a such a good player. When he came onto the national team, i knew the team wasnt in a place to bolster his skillset. one of the things america has always had a problem with, is coaching. tactics. we've always been behind the 8-ball as a country. for us to take the next step as a footballing country, we've gotta prioritize grassroots football and tactics at that level in both players and coaching.
-
Jones deserves his flowers. he was such a pillar in the usmnt midfield
-
He was always one of my favorite players, his tenacity.
-
🎉❤Omg one of my fav players! That rocket golazo against Portugal in WC is still legendary
-
JJ dropping truth bombs. 25:40. " Social media creating followers, not leaders." WOW! That lit multiple lightbulbs!!!👀👀. You guys keep it coming. You're the best.
-
I LOVE this whole thing yall got going on. The personality and the personalities coming on are top drawer each time and I'm loving it! Keep it coming!
-
He’s right - a US born player with his club and USMNT resume would be held in the highest esteem like the other all-time USA greats like Reyna, Donovan, Dempsey, Howard.
-
Jermaine Jones absolutely one of my favorite midfielders to suit up for the USMNT! An absolute engine, just non stop work, always left it out on the pitch.
-
As a Schalke fan this guy is severely underrated. Not just for the USMNT, but in the world as a whole.🙌🙌🙌
-
My fav USMNT player, period. Dot. This was fantastic.....thank you!
-
Kickin it is honestly one of the best football/soccer shows around. Keep it up guys and more power to ya'll!
