After the English
flop in this edition of Euro, this nation FA is looking very intensely to find
the right man to lead the Three Lions squad into the grand fete of the World
Cup. By having a long list of candidates, it looks like one so far has caught
the attention of the English directives, in current Team USA Manager Jürgen
Klinsmann.
Still this can be
anybody’s, job, as the potential number of candidates total around seventeen,
the English FA so far has its hands full.
With a post in an important
English tabloid mentioned about the current man at the helm of the USMNT being
on talks with the English FA over the open position. It looks like good old Jürgen
can be heading to jolly old England, but not so fast, as the former German
great is still under contract with US Soccer Federation with a year to go.
Suddenly the
attention that Team USA Boss he’s getting, because of his work performed so far
with the Stars and Stripes in a span of five years, one seen with excellent
results as in the past World Cup CONCACAF qualifiers the USA squad went first.
Team USA became so dominant towards its south of the border nemesis Mexico whom
this latter one could not beat the US squad for a span of almost four years.
Thanks to Jürgen
teachings, the USA has seen much needed improvement in the international level,
a fourth place in the past Copa America, however many wanted a much better
finish.
Despite many of the
adversities lately in USMNT in its results and many asking for the German
National resignation and seeking new direction, so far the work performed by
him considered as fair but with room for improvement.
If Jürgen decided for
the England spot, the list for USMNT Manager is a long one with many suitors
that can do the job and especially in its majority Americans and one foreigner.
Three Americans come
to mind as SKC Peter Vermes, NYRB Jesse Marsch and PTFC Caleb Porter and
Dominic Kinnear of San Jose this being the foreigner. As once again, the question arises if
Klinsmann decides in the last minute to leave the helm of Team USA.
At the end, the
United States Soccer Federation aims are to keep their current man at the helm
of the Men’s national squad and continue with his work, although for some not
liking at times the results, but the Stars and Stripes program in full
development.
Something with the
continuance of Jürgen Klinsmann at the helm of the USMNT, more positive things
will emerge from the German Boss program already in the works and more
competitive squads will continue to emerge from his work.
For now Team USA Boss
is in need of getting is squad ready for the World Cup qualifiers in its
confederation of play and the so called Hexagonal where the best three squads
net a direct pass into the grand fete.
As the levels of
competition in CONCACAF becoming much contested, the USA Men’s squad needs to
be much better and a move described earlier in these stages, considered as
catastrophic.
In addition, nothing
is official but the talks held by Klinsmann with the English FA are a start but
hope that nothing will come out of them and end up as a simple interview, so
Jürgen can stay put in his position with the USMNT.
