Klinsmann: Fabian Johnson needs to "rethink approach" to team

Out of FJ and JK, I know which one I'd rather keep...

 

Time for Jurgen to rethink his approach to team. Please send him away as well.

 

Seems like a convenient scapegoat.

 

For fu*ks sake.

 

Well then.

Aside from the continued stupidity of wanting to save that sub for Rimando, this is a thing worth watching.

 

Not sure what this is all about, Johnson doesnt want to play fullback anymore?

Johnson wants to focus more on his club career?

Klinsmann wants to make a lesson of a guy who took himself out of a huge game?

Definitely nothing good though.

 

Can the fans vote to kick Klinsmann out and bring Johnson back?

 

Klinsmann is doing a tremendous job wrecking our NT. He's done just about all he could to make our team bad and when he likely goes when we are struggling to qualify for the WC, he'll have chased away arguably our best player.

 

im as disenchanted with JK as anyone, but fabian johnson did not look like the USAs most talented field player. maybe thats because hes out of his preferred position, but he certainly had a rather pedestrian performance

 

Let the scapegoating begin! Never, ever, EVER is anything the fault of the guy who is, you know, actually in charge of the entire national team program.

So now all of a sudden we're concerned with the approach players take to the US team? And Fabian is the guy we choose to scapegoat? Somewhere Timmy Chandler is having a laugh.

 

Such pathetic leadership. He's running out of scapegoats. Who's next that hasn't already been called out at some point?

 

Fabian presumably was tired of the "cede the entire field to Mexico" game plan.

 

Klinsmann was not happy when FJ said he was vaccinating his children.

 

I feel a player mutiny coming on.

 

FJ is just about the consensus best player in the pool now isn't he?

Now he and Klinsman are on the outs. Klinsman's detractors can't point to him being a "coddled MLS player without pressure" or not "challenging himself" or any of that BS that was so conveniently pointed to with LD and others.

This has got to be the beginning of the end for Klinsman.

 

Our 5 best players are probably Bradley, Dempsey, FJ, Jones and Altidore. He's now openly feuded with two of them.

 

I'm just waiting for one of the core players to announce their retirement from the national team so that they can focus on their club career.

 

lol, and so it begins.

 

Began, and it never ended.

 

If you don't include Jermaine Jones in the Gold Cup.

Personally I don't mind Jürgen taking issue with Fabian. He had a notably poor game, and I can understand questioning his commitment. But making this public? He's running out of players who have not been publicly shamed and blamed at some point, while at every single turn ducking all criticism leveled in his general direction.

 

I think you are missing some of his feuds. He's feuded with Donovan, Dempsey, Altidore, FJ and Besler. There are rumors of feuds with Cameron and Gonzalez.

 

Klinsman has lost the plot. The sooner he is gone the better off we will all be. If anyone on our team has been the cunsumate professional and top performer for us its Fabian freaking Johnson.

 

I was just going by that top 5. His feud with Besler especially is inexcusable.
