New England's problem is coaching. The parts are at hand but aren't being assembled as a working unit. Agudelo's fear of success must be treated...
Right. Financial incentive works wonders.
I follow coaching perhaps more than individual players and my view of Montreal is that the team is well-prepared. I like watching a team that...
How about first we build up the academy system? Too many promising players are delaying/preventing development by wasting time partying in the...
Don't forget that Winter last week promised to be in the playoffs. Not to worry, Toronto. Everything will be peachy. Won't it?
The view from here in Pennsylvania has brcome: What will the MLS assign to (small TV market) RSL in this game? Marginal calls are almost always in...
Apparently Torontoans don't have to be patient, 'cause Winter yesterday guaranteed the playoffs this season. Is the coffee up there really that bad?
I told you people before: Get 3 million more TV viewers and the constant hose jobs will end. It's your fault. (Has anyone seen a reappearance of...
Players tend to reflect their coach's emotional condition. The Union often appears dysfunctional. (Notice how bland Toronto usually appears.)
Sachsen is right in one respect about Tulsa. If a team has only minor-league money and minor-league vision, Tulsa will see it as minor. I watched...
Omar Gonzalez and Geoff Cameron. The U.S. pool of players is shallow because so many promising players don't begin careers until they're 21 or...
Re: The Official Future of Bob Bradley Thread First, That was Brazil's C team (with a warning to Alves and Robinho to step it up.) Second, the...
Re: The Official Future of Bob Bradley Thread Bob Bradley hamstrung himself as coach by refusing to bring to the team any midfielder who might...
I was disappointed by Lalas's postgame comment about what to take away from the game...the first half. Wrong. What to take away from this game is...
I hope those people who think Mikey will be pulled in favor of Adu/Torres in midfield enjoy the Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy and Santa Claus. Every...
Kljestan got a makeup red; it was earned by Gooch in the first half. The ref and linesmen were not discussing weather at halftime.
Our youngsters going abroad are too often sitting on benches. We have plenty of arenas for them....Altidore, for example, should have been playing...
You nailed the problems (not mentioning the systematic stalling of careers by wasting time in NCAA soccer). But the financial obligation rests...
Re: Success in Year One Anything would be a success if it consisted of young guys working and getting better, rather than a bunch of...
Re: Potential Players for the Union [MERGED] Why all the discussion about old guys? Might be productive to look for young players ready to become...
Right. It was amusing watching him being schooled by some sharp kids (wish it hadn't been in a qualifier). With intelligent coaching, those same...
Stop with the making sense. Little Bradley doesn't want them in his playpen.
Dempsey is out of position and looking haggard; needs to play above the box. Biggest problems are Altidore (who is showing no growth curve) and...
Someone mentioned that two generations of fans is required. Right. If and only if the teams have some permanent existence, such as being stuck in...
