Bob Bradley takes over at Swansea City. Wow. And he's reunited with Landon I just realized! Wonder if he put in a good word?
Bradley was getting a lot of hate from Swansea fans online. I do expect him to do well, he get the team organized defensively and have them hit on the counter. He'll keep them out of the relegation fight and into mid table, but I don't know if he'll do much more than that.
He'll make them eat crow. Can't wait. EDIT: The fact that they want Giggs over Bradley is ridiculous. The man has ZERO coaching experience. ZERO.
Just watched his 1st presser, I expected him to get some hate from the fans no matter what anyone says they hate us Americans and it's ok. I would be jealous too if I didn't live on the greatest nation on earth! But back to good old Bob I sure am glad he spoke well and said "football" when referring to the beautiful game, had he efd up and said that other word he would be getting clowned worse and written off already. Even though I don't care for Bob Bradley (any manager who had that much affinity for Jonathan "Clumsy " Bornstein has mental issues) I have to give him my support as a fellow American and I do wish him luck. Just keep saying football Bob don't screw that up and you'll be fine.
If he turns Swansea around, I hope he starts saying "soccer" as a way of rubbing his critics' noses in the dirt.
How about Bob's comments on Jurgen Klinsmann? Kind of surprised he went there, especially considering his son is still with the national team.
I'm not. I get the suspicion there is no love lost between the two, and now Jurgen has fired back. Unsurprisingly, I'm with Bob on this one.
It doesn't surprise me that Bob feels that way, just surprised that he would comment publicly like that, seems a little out of character for him.

Here's the quote for the lazy: “From the day I was fired from the US, I did not say one bad thing publicly about their team,” he said. “I don’t appreciate the way it was done. I think they made a mistake. I’m glad Jurgen says some nice things now. When he did commentary on the 2010 World Cup, he was already jockeying for my job. “I’ve shut my mouth, continued to support the team, because I want to see the team do well. Michael [Bradley] is the captain. If he said something in a nice way, I appreciate it. And if at some point he chooses to try to work again outside the US, I wish him the best.”
I tried to link Klinsmann's response: http://www.mlssoccer.com/post/2016/...efutes-bob-bradleys-jockeying-comments-us-job Not sure if it's working...
Real Madrid is rumored to have extended Kroos on 20 mil a year before taxes. Pogba deal was dangerous because it really screwed with the value of players
Care to explain with the Raiders have to do with Azteca, and what Azteca has to do with RM vs. Barca?
I guess I should have said El Super Clasico, as in America vs Chivas. Raiders whooped some Houston Texan ass on Monday Night at the Azteca.
