Bob Bradley Out as US Men's Team Coach

What I think most of us on this blog were waiting for finally happened today. Bob Bradley is out and the search is on for the next US men's soccer coach. There are lots of options for the US. I don't care what anyone says, the US has the money to buy anyone it wants. My fear is that the USSF tries to stay with an American, and looks to the MLS. I know the MLS doesn't get much love, but it is a solid player development league. I just don't want any of the coaches. First, few have any real international coaching experience, and second, its like looking to the minor leagues to get a coach for the most difficult and challenging major league. ESPN has a good article about some likely choices here, so I'm not going to go through all of them. Instead, I'm going to focus on my two favorites below the fold.

This is How You Win State Championships



Teach your JV boys to play like this, Eames, and your co-regional championship would be a non-issue.

Klinsmann to the US?

ESPN is reporting that the US Soccer Fed is talking to Juergen Klinsmann about the US Soccer Team's HC position. This would be huge for US Soccer. It is my opinion that Germany is where it is in international soccer right now because of Klinsmann. I was def. not satisfied with Bob Bradley after watching the US give up so many early goals in the lead up to and during the World Cup. Klinsmann could raise US soccer to the next level which should include consistant trips to the quarter and semi finals. He also advocates an attacking style very similar to what the US already does so there should be few problems making the transition. Thoughts?
