By Alexi Lalas| FOX Sports Verified There seems to be a desire by many to adjust and manage their expectations relative to this United States men's national team. It's an honest and understandable reaction, but I'm not going to do it. I'm not going to let these players off the hook so easily. I'm not going to accept that this is as good as it gets. I still believe they can do great things. I still believe they can do things we haven't seen before. It's not delusional or disingenuous. This team doesn't need a cheerleader.
