This. Would you blame coach K if LeBron and co. went out and played like shite even if they were put in position to succeed by the coach?



I was unaware how much lack of talent he had to choose from. It would be like Coach K picking bench players I guess.

That's true. And just like coach K, Klinsmann has ZERO affect on the development of the US pool right now. He has to take what he's got and tactically give them their best shot to win.

If he stays with the team for another 8-10 years then maybe he will be able to bring up some of the younger players in the pool and youth academies and then you will see a US team that has the technical ability of the European nations.

So why be critical of a coach in a sport you know nothing about?

This trolling POS does not deserve actual answers. He is trying to validate his existance by putting down a sport he doesn't have the capability of understanding .

Exactly. Coach K basically has his pick of all of the division 2 college basketball teams in the country to field a team to play against the Miami Heat every single game. The U.S. is fielding its 5th rate athletes against the world's elite.

However, with that being said, poor fundamentals, not measurables was the difference with this team. Passing and ball control was sloppy in every game. There is no reason why Belgium, or any other team for that matter, should be able to get that many shots on goal against you in a match. I don't know how Coach K could possibly improve this with the schedule he gets to work with, but this has to be their focus going forward.
