New U.S. Coach Must Embrace Latin Influence

Submitted by derek smethurst, Dec 12, 2006 10:24

Age gets us all especially if we started at it as a youngster. The absolute hogwash I have just read must be the product of an idle mind. Time to write another book Paul and as for Mr Klinsmann not being experienced enough and a failure, more tripe - oh well such are the blends of those whose handle on the English language makes them experts. The US screwed up in not getting Klinsmann and no true professional would let an amateur dictate terms of the on the field product and the person who takes that type of job is a puppet and looking at the resume and is just passing through on his way to other things and getting a pay check or naive enough to think that talking two languages and playing with a Latin influence will get him through. Man oh man Have a lovely one up there in the north and do not forget to thaw out before letting the fingers do the walking. Many thanks
