re: So who deserves more blame: Klinsmann or the players?

I'd argue that we will finish stronger than we have started qualifying. The talent is there to beat CONCACAF teams. If we were in UEFA. I'd be incredibly skeptical. I think this is a time in US soccer where we are in between old guard / new guard. Like in every cycle. However, Klinsmann has the dilemma of these players getting older:
Landon Donovan = 144 caps
Carlos Bocanegra = 110 caps
Steve Cherundolo = 87 caps
The past few years, not a lot of people have got first team reps in those positions. Just no depth. Younger players don't have chemistry, yet.
I'm not saying that other coaches didn't have to deal with it. They do. However, I can see how it is causing a problem, right now.
