There will never be a more colorful, funnier or more controversial coach in the MLS... this thread is to memorialize his best zingers. On Chelis interview with ESPN Deportes: http://espndeportes.espn.go.com/news/story?id=1752015&s=mex&type=story Google Translate kind of sucks but if you don't read Spanish: http://translate.google.com/transla...ews/story?id=1752015&s=mex&type=story&act=url Basically... MLS does not have quality, there are 1 or 2 quality players per team... buthis is not Cruz Azul, Atlas, Santos or Jaguares were every player knows how to play the ball.. here it is all based on effort.. there are no quality plays etc.,
Send this to English language sites to translate properly. This helps out pressure on the league not to be satisfied with the status quo. They must be based on what I've seen this year.
The best part is what he says to the reporters after the Chivas Vs Galaxy game. you can listen to the podcast here At the end of the last question, he tells the reporters to cheer up, that he is going to take them out for a drink because they won't celebrate and he says come on you will be the champions cheer up! the Galaxy will be the Champions!
Chelis is brilliant.. there is a lot of context to his statements... the yellow press at this conference seemed to have a vendetta against Chivas.. regarding the goal scorer Alvarez there was a question from a reporter of Central American ancestry about Alvarez sucking in the workouts & not having quality to be in MLS etc., These journos haven't dealt with a guy like this in the local league... sit back & enjoy the Chelis show... he is going to pawn these dudes week after week.
Gosh I hope you're not serious about MLS fixing games for LA... If this is the case than MLS failed miserably the first 2 years of beckham
