@shibier US are no powerhouse.They are mediocre team.Mexico and USA dominate their shit region like We dominate Saff.However they both are bang average side.Mexicans are most annoying fans in the world.
USA Football team is very important for FIFA. Look at all the big sponsors and their country of origin. Just for this World Cup, TV Broadcast deals worth 200 Million Dollars were signed for English Channels and 300 Million Dollars for Spanish Channels in USA. With USA not qualifying, there is going to be tremendous loss for TV networks and the impact will be there for next 2 world cups. CONCACAF is a challenging Confederation. Mexico regularly pass Group Stage in world cup every time, something which Asian and African teams fail to do. Lets see whether our AFC Champion Australia will get past Honduras or not?
Lol, no offense, but no Indians should say that the US is a mediocre side. We are no powerhouse but we are definitely a good side.
As for FIFA, it is one world cup. Sponsorships and TV stuff was done well before the US failed to qualify. If the US fails to make 2022 then there might be problems.
It's a joke to say USA is not good in football and just shows poor standard of knowledge and ignorance.. US mostly even manages to beat Mexico which is a top notch team
