Same as Bob Bradley. Played a decent squad. Hard to tell from 90 minutes and one week.


A.) With a new coach, if you're a player that isn't called up. You HAVE to play like it is the World Cup to get a future with the squad. I.E Shea and Beckerman.


B.) The players movement, desire and body movements were a ton better. Bradley lost his players. US Soccer was stale. While the tactics were ehhh and the players are the same players Bradley called up...Klinsmann's excitement was the difference in the game.

C.) I really love Klinsmann's enthusiasm.

Even though I'm feeling more optimistic now in that we have some solid players and some selection questions, Klinnsman got it wrong with his original lineup. Torres is not a wide player and Bradley is not an attacking midfielder. That's pretty obvious.

In some ways it was Bradley-esque. Make some bad choices originally and make some good adjustments.

But I like the enthusiasm and he did make some good changes. I'm hopeful that the initial lineup was a one off and he gets it right from the start from now on.

Note to assistant coaches: don't stand next to Klinsmann during a match. He will beat you like a Rockem-Sockem Robot.
