Instead of him to take Klinsmans evaluation that USMNT talent pool is not as deep as Americans think and try to agressively pursue Europe and South American based US citizens for the MNT, he tried to use no name players to go to the WC. And i laugh when they try to make Jose Altidore out to be a super star.

They need to get back to the drawing board.

That's my point. He should have recruited 11 Pulisics instead of trying to use some MLS players. The only MLS players i would have used for the WC qualifiers are Bradley and Dempsey.

I also think he is not good enough tactically. I did not see the full game, but from the highlights I saw and the line up, it looked like an attack minded team looking for a win away from home when all they needed was 1 point to qualify. I don't think Klinsmann would have lost that game.

Bruce Arena disagrees with Kinsmann's assessment of MLS talent.
He also does not believe in selecting 2nd tier European league players over MLS.

Bruce Arena is a VERY good coach.

He got the best he could from the players available to him.

How quick folks forget the $#% hole Klinsmann put them into. Arena came on a salvage mission and failed. But the $#% hole was dug by Klinsmann.

Bro, I no gree. What hole did Klinsme dig for them? They lost the first two games and they panicked. All of a sudden they didn't think Klinsman could do it and went to bring back Bruce Arena who uses emotion over brain. Did Klinsman lose the rest of the Hexagonal? What was the job of Bruce Arena? To come bring them out of the whole or to further sink them?

Bruce Arena is not a very good coach. In fact he is not a good coach. It's not Klinsman that caused him to lose to Costa Rica at home and could not beat T&T that was playing for absolutely nothing. That's not whay very good coahes do.

He is the BEST soccer coach in US soccer history which includes Klinsmann. His resume speaks for itself.
Took them to their highest ever FIFA ranking, fourth.
Reached the Quarterfinals at the World Cup.

He took over from Klinsmann who lost two world cup qualification games. Unlike Amodu who is an expert in salvage mission, he wasn't able to salvage US World Cup qualification this time around.

Had he started the qualification rounds, US would have qualified with games to spare.

TnT game on the road was always going to be tough...

But the result does not diminish his pedigree as a coach or the remarkable turn around that fell short.

You seem to be making a case that Klinsmann is a bad coach. No one is arguing with you on that.

Bruce Arena was hired in November 2016 after Klinsmann was fired. So he was the coach for 8 of the qualifiers. His record in those 8 games was 3 wins, 3 draws, and 2 losses. That's not the record of a great coach, and you can't blame such record on Klinsmann. Unlike African qualifiers where only one team from each group qualifies for the WC, the top 3 teams from concacaf qualify for the tournament. So you may be able to blame Klinsmann's initial losses on why US did not top the group or why they did not finish second in the group. But you CANNOT blame their failure to qualify for the WC on him, especially when Arena was in charge for 8 games!

He had 8 more games to go after Klinsman was fired, EIGHT! apart from Mexico who lost 1, every other team in the group lost at least 2 games. Eight games to go in a group where the top three qualified and the fourth had a shot at qualifying via a playoff, in CONCACRAP, against world beaters like Trinidad and Tobago, Honduras and Panama, apparently is a mountain too high to climb? :rotf: :rotf: :rotf:

Arena is a fossil who had no business leading a national team especially in light of the rubbish comments he made about foreign born Americans. Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face.
