Why are they so bad? They have lots of money and yet the team gets worse and worse every year.
Why are they so bad? They have lots of money and yet the team gets worse and worse every year
Football is about talent and not about marketing, so players have to actually be good to win stuff, on top of that a national team needs union and players with a lot of love for their country, not a single amerimutt loves his country.
they only play MLS shitters coupled with maybe 4 kids playing in europe
and the coach is an idiot
Given the incestuous relationship the USSF has with MLS/SUM, how is anyone surprised?
You cant buy better players, you have to develop them. And the good ones they do develop fuck off to Europe so they refuse to play them unless they're too good to be ignored.
Why does Fabian johnson never play anymore? Hes still quality
only fifth rate athletes get into soccer. throwing money in a fireplace will keep you warmer but it's not exactly the best method for staying warm
maybe dont hire klinsmann
likehow is that a good move?
Klinsmann took as past a world cup group of death and a Copa America semifinal with mediocre players. The last three coaches we've had - including the current one - are useless mls stooges who have sunk the team further and further down.
US Soccer's idiotic desire to push MLS is 90% of the problem. The MLS won't get better because it doesn't pay unless you're a 38 year old European has-been. The MLS won't pay more because it's barely even financially solvent. And the MLS can't make more money because the only people in the US who care about soccer are first-generation citizens, foreigners, literal faggots and Seattle.
>the only people in the US who care about soccer are first-generation citizens, foreigners, literal faggots and Seattle.
This, fuck off we have better sports to watch.
So what should mls do?
Oh no no no.
Tell US Soccer to fuck off, stop trying to be the entire American soccer identity.
Can't roid
Just become a subsidiary of Euro soccer leagues
why did you say Seattle twice
For one, let its franchises go as independent club entities and let USSF pave the way for a multi-step plan to introduce a cohesive pyramid with promotion and relegation. Will literally never happen since this would be violating the investors' agreements.
The more realistic solution would be admitting that anybody who competes in MLS as it currently exists is not fit to compete in any FIFA tournament (CONCACAF, fine, we're in a shit confederation anyway). Encourage Americans with actual potential to pursue careers in Europe.
>le start any random kid playing in the youth teams in Europe to lock them from playing for another country
>never get a solid backbone
If you're talking about Dest, he wasn't to blame for the clusterfuck of this team. In fact, he was played out of position as an LB when he's played as RB for Ajax. As soon as Dest was subbed out, the team conceded 2 more goals, both of which came from the left where Dest played.
I don't even know who that is. Just in general. You will poach any random 17 year old kid.
Like, Julian Green played in a R16 World Cup match with 1 (una) club appearance.
You're implying that the dutch kid we capped wasn't good enough when in fact he played decent given the shit circumstances - the coach's retarded tactics and the MLS fuck up CBs who were stretched across the back over and over again.
This, check out RM and FCB, they spent so much money in the last years but are getting worse each year.
It's about scouting talents and getting the best out of them, Joao Felix was a smart purchase by Atleti, he is shaping to become a top scorer.
Soccer doesn't need athleticism. Barcelona won everything that there is to be won with short old dudes (Puyol, Xavi, Iniesta), two lanklets (busquets and pique) and some manlets
>r*ddit team
>r*ddit league
>r*ddit sport
>no home stadium
you need to hire German coaching staff since your players seem to flourish the best under that system.
Swap the men for the women
