This is their room.

You are intruding.

9-2

Zero goals from the run of play. One of them a meaningless gift in Saprissa.

Twice going down 1-0 within 10 minutes, for a "defense" first team.

Playing Beasley in all 3 games.

2 Stupid red cards and yeah that is on the coach. It is not some "get out of criticism free card."

Showing some semblance of heart in one out of 3 games.

Playing a stupid ass formation in Saprissa, in a stupid way, with the wrong players in the wrong positions.

Repeating that against Italy with Benny on the wing.

Playing another stupid formation against Brazil with the players in the wrong positions.

The substitutions, or lack thereof, or speed thereof. Nope, he is not getting off with one line about the stupid, idiotic, moronic asinine substitution patterns:

Subbing one of your best player out of Costa Rica, without explanation. Never addressing it, not playing him since.

Not playing Adu since Saprissa, despite him showing as well as anyone and getting the single, solitary shot on goal of the match.

Having the opposition use all three subs first when you are down a man against Italy and the players are obviously gassed.

Using only one of those subs to help the midfield where the player went out and you are being beaten the worst and the players are most tired.

NOT USING ONE OF YOUR SUBS WHEN DOWN A MAN AND ANY GOAL, OR PREVENTION OF A GOAL COULD BE THE DIFFERENCE IN ADVANCING.

Hypocrisy. Calling out one of your players for not getting club time. While sitting Torres who gets top 2-3 club time and starting Beasley the very next match.

I could go on, but I think I made my point. This is about a lot more than losing a few games we were expected to lose.

This is about a long unchanged pattern of conduct and an absolutely abysmal level of play. It is not a one off event, or learning experience due to the level of competition.

You are right about one thing though. It is not time to panic. It is time to be cool, calm, rational and make a level headed decision.

It is time to fire Bob Bradley.

 

Spot on.

 

Spot on. Any progress that was made in 2002 has been lost. We are back to the equivalent of 1998.

Project 2010 is now Project 2022. Hopefully when the US will host the WC, we will have a contending team.

 

BRAVO

dare i say i root for another embarrassment vs. Egypt if it means BB gets fired?

Jurgen Klinsmann should take over. Not only does he have respect for American soccer he also is a big enough name that come World Cup time the media here will give us some credit. Sure he bombed at Bayern. But he took a young German squad deep into the world cup. We have a young team here and need some life injected into them. He can push Donovan to become more of a leader, maybe. He is a good judge of talent and for the most part has no bias towards players. BB has a lot of bias when it comes to player selections. Other than his own son, bocanegra, and rico clark, i don't see one player that would be upset with BB getting fired.

 

The Fire Bob Bradley Group on Facebook now has over 500 members and counting! Join the group and begin to act!

 

It begins to boggle one's mind, wondering what it would take for the US to change coaches in the middle of a qualifying campaign. Copa America and the Confederations Cup are pretty damning.

 

It looked like Dunga just walked off the field and didn't bother to try to shake Bradley's hand after the game I like Dunga. It's smart not to associate yourself with idiots.

 

What about dopes?

 

Dunga didn't want Bumbling Bob's stupidity rubbing off on him.

 

fair play to him... I wouldn't either.

 

It's only a joke if they get it

 

You guys really need to look up what "dunga" means.

 

by world football standards, it's actually a pretty freaking great time to fire your manager ... for the US. we've got 8 weeks until we have our next WCQ. so not only would the new manager have time, but he'd also have a shitty, throwaway tournament like the Gold Cup to experiment with.


IIRC, some trigger-happy nations will fire their NT coach mid-campaign in a lot worse situations, time-wise.

 

Bob is to the USA what Raymond Domenech is to France. They are the unflushables. He's not going anywhere any time soon.

 

That went over their heads.

 

Its the unfortunate truth. The USSF/Sunil Gulati are a strange lot.

 

Its amazing and is deserving of more discussion.

We look helpless in the run of play.

 

Time to call Sunil:

Perhaps someone could summarize the first 1200 posts for the late arrivals ...
