So who deserves more blame: Klinsmann or the players?

I loved the Klinsmann hire but things are simply not progressing as much as most of us thought at this point. I can handle the out of nowhere call ups and weird formations as long as they work. However as soon as we make progress we seem to always take a step back and end up right where we started

On the other hand the talent level we have is just not up to par with the bigger world powers or to where it can be. We create very few, if any chances on attack and while we play solid defense for 60-70 minute stretches we always give something up way too easily

Is this just a big overreaction by me to losing on the road in a hostile environment or am I at somewhat justified?

50/50 blame. Coaches job to prepare players. Players job to execute.

The players too many unforced errors and loafing.

Klinsmann's tactics are stupid more often than not. I'm more tactically astute than he is, I'm 100% sure of it.

I had to watch on a stream in the middle of a class, but I thought I was watching Bob ball today. It' like having no difference in the tactics, supplemented with crazy callups/experiments. I don't know what possession ended up being, but it was probably pretty close to 40-60. Lack of width was another key concern.

I will say that bike goal from Garcia was pretty nasty. Not sure how much to blame on the backline there, pretty unfortunate.
