From the player they were all excited to honor on Saturday. Also, you have a player from Minnesota, and one of your best players is an immigrant. You absolutely have to grapple at the very least.

When I get asked why North American women, Black women, women of color aren’t coaching in the NWSL, I’m just going to send them this quote.
The good ol’ boys network in soccer is alive & well in 🇺🇸. That Chris Long is calling Jesse Marsch “looking for a coach” is a symptom of a systemic problem.

This is only slightly less offensive, and still way too skewed to the USWNT. If I'm Emma, I'm calling each owner personally to cuss them out. Why are you making your broke behavior MY problem?
Per an NWSL spokesperson:
The criteria for top 11 in USWNT minutes is not cumulative and can be accomplished in either of the previous two years.

I don’t know how to say this except to say it:
I’m a Guardian top 100 voter and have been invited in the past to vote in ESPN FC’s ranking.
There’s no reason why that, or certainly any “most marketable” ranking that’s even more subjective, should determine if a #NWSL player gets a big salary.
