    So are you saying because he is doing no work, not piss poor work, he should keep his job?

    That's pretty insulting to professionals in any field of endeavor. This group doesn't even have the dedication to be Metro track inspectors

    I'm saying the same thing I have said all along. Who will replace him. As with anyone wearing DC United laundry I will take an upgrade.

    I have two years as a coach for a Baltimore City High School.

    I'd take John Harkes. anyone from FC Dallas (Marco Ferruzzi or Josema Bazan). Enzo Concina (was the Italian Defense coach we had in 2014 that helped turn DC United around and then left for Montreal.) This is just off the top of my head, and is in no way a comprehensive list.

    If Olsen is as big a do nothing as you claim he is literally anybody would be an upgrade.

    But then the problem remains, who is actually willing to take the job? This isn't Football Manager, it's real life. It is just hard to imagine who would want to step in to such a shit situation.

    Harkes and Ferruzzi ok, not a fan of Bazan or Concina. Not saying they are bad coaches it is a stylistic difference.

    You're overqualified.

    It will affect your salary. We can only offer you $500K and you have to work weekends.

    Well if Chad Ashton is the one doing the actual coaching, we just need someone to handle postgame interviews. I hear Sean Spicer is available.

    Call Maldini and Nesta down at Miami FC. they seem to have a line on some pretty good guys and I bet they could suggest one or 2. They certainly have the chops and their team dominates the league, Think of them as the soccer subsidiary of account temps and Ben Olsen as the hapless Needleman
