We have a coach who is an incompetent tactician. An arrogant, obnoxious, condescending twit. A terrible leader who absolutely no one, not one of his players and not one of the fans, believes in. I expect Sunil to extend his contract.
Jurgen did what I never thought was possible-a US team just completely quit in a qualifier. This more than anything justifies a coaching change.
If Klinsmann is fired, the name most likely to replace him: Bruce Arena.— Subscribe to GrantWahl.com (@GrantWahl) November 16, 2016
So are we going to have an actual team, or are we going to rely on selling tickets to preteen girls for USWNT friendlies for the next four years?
I think when you reach the point of firing the coach could do no more damage to the situation, you fire the coach. Folks, we are there after tonight.
It's Michael Bradley's fault! Actually the problem is we have a whole team of Michael Bradleys, except for Pulisic, who is too young and raw to be the guiding light this team needs at the moment. This problem is made worse by having a coach who is not very good at coaching, as has been demonstrated by his historically bad losses. Russia looks like a real longshot at the moment. I miss Donovan and Dempsey.
Agree with all the negatives about JK and the players - particularly Bradley and Brooks! Just pathetic. And I bet nothing changes for the next game - but I hope JK is not doing the team sheet.
Source/link? Oh, right. Bruce doesn't have any magic Euro pixie dust. He's merely won a knockout match at the World Cup.
We can blame the players but the coach put them in this position. Why play the 3-5-2 after it didn't work the first time? Klinsmann covinced me that he is clueless when it comes to tactics. Geoff you were missed this past week.
I think preteen girls are developing our tactics. oh wait: preteen girls get along better than this XI....
