    I'm not sure the federation wants to pay the top dollar that would be required to snag a coach who does well in the cup.

    Desperate times call for desperate measures.

    The team missed out on the World Cup. And now has recently learned that they have the responsibility of hosting the 2026 World Cup.
    The Federation needs to make a splash looking at the big picture. If not ...
    ...2022 may be another disaster and 2026 a missed opportunity.

    But we shall see. I am expecting an underwhelming hire that just keeps things status quo. I just hope they hire someone with National Team experience and a good resume. And everyone knows who is number one on my list.

    Because Colombia, Argentina and Peru will probably out bid for him.
    And he knows those leagues and players way better than he does the USA.

    My personal take is that is going to be someone who underachieves.

    here is a link to the salaries of every World Cup coach. That said, throwing money doesn't always equal success. JK was making around 2.5 million per year in salary (by comparison Bradley had a salary of 450,000). If we offered what we paid JK, we would be competitive with all except maybe the top 5 or 6.

    That said, I am not sure I like the idea of equating cash spent with results.
    Look at the manager salaries from 2014 at the link below. #1; failed at group stage; #2 failed at group stage; #3 failed at group stage.

    Fun to read post that think that coaching salary is what holds the us back.

    That's interesting and useful info. I don't think of it in the sense of more expensive coach = better results, but more that if we're willing to offer $2.5 million, there really aren't many coaches out of our price range. If we decide that, say, Gareca is the best man for the job, we probably won't lose out over salary concerns.

    Gareca is not going to be a USA candidate. Let's stop this before it even begins.

    Gareca used as an example. Doesn't matter about him specifically. He might choose another country to coach, but the point is that it'll be because of something other than money...

    The USSF has the money. They failed to qualify for the WC, so they should have the motivation. The question is, do they have the competence to hire a good manager?

    I'm not sure.

    Thanks. That was my point. Guys in his tier might very well not want the US job because of the quality of the side, but we'd have the money to make a competitive offer.

    For the most part, Earnie's hire will tell me all I need to know going forward about the 'leadership' and direction for the USMNT. I expect the worst. The USSF is run by accountants who seemingly put the USMNT near the bottom of their list of things to work on. The USMNT is the window to the USSF. Bummer they don't get it.

    Earnie is not taking over until August, I wonder who will still be available by then.

    Klinsman was one of the highest paid NT coaches in the world.

    His lack of focus and energy on this is why I expect the worst.

    And his $6.2m Golden Parachute is one of the biggest ever paid to a fired soccer coach.
