Trump, because yeah. He's like that.

That mans face scream corruption. Looks like he could play a NYC mob boss.

Now that I think about it, most such people OP describes probably WOULD look good in fedoras, like the old mob bosses.

Counterpoint: Klinsmann and Hillary.

numbers don't lie.

Klinsmann wasn't from New York, wasn't corrupt, had the necessary skills to perform the job and weren't carried to power based off name recognition and nostalgia

>weren't carried to power based off name recognition and nostalgia

He literally was tho. Germany dropped him and despite all evidence to the contrary, we picked him up thinking any German coach is a good coach

>former professional player in top competition

All the head coaches we had for a decade were literally college coaches. That was an improvement.

>had a (successful) plan to reinvigorate youth development

Brick Arena hates anyone who is under 26, Baldy didn't have the vision, things had stagnated since 2004

>experienced international coach

Something the US didn't have since the Nineties

Thanks again for picking Bradley, Altidore and Howard. They haven't worked for two years but it doesn't matter because they play with passion

He's a coach with a mindset of maximizing potential of mediocre players. USA is patently mediocre.

we need some time to get PuliGOD up to full power

>He's a coach with a mindset of maximizing potential

I struggle to believe people are this stupid, but deep down I know they are.

He's an AYSO coach who literally believes passion and pride are greater than planning, tactics, and positioning. He literally thinks that.

He literally thinks that Madrid are good because they have the most passionate players.

He scooted into power by being chumy with the people who run US Soccer, who literally have no experience playing the sport, and he coached a great team of European-based players to an acceptable finish in a World Cup.

He was in charge of a prestige team who the MLS literally changed rules for, a team who literally had a monopoly on being able to purchase foreign players, and he didn't manage to win every year.

He plays Bradley and Altidore and Howard for the sole reason that they play with passion. He literally thinks Bradley is a "deep playmaker" despite the fact he runs backwards to the defenders to receive a sideways pass and then play as sweeper. He literally plays a
Altidore because he plays regularly. That's the reason. Not because he is good or unique. "He's in good form" and "he's starting regularly"

How can anyone even look at this and not see how shit he is, I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.
