I'll never defend Klinsmann over the whole Donovan WC fiasco but it's hard to find anything untrue or really even all that debatable in his comments aside from the fact that MLS corporate headquarters would have preferred it be "thought but not stated."
That is the point. Klinsmann should not have made those statements public.

Klinsmann wants his players to push themselves to be their best and never be satisfied.
His statements reflect that.
I think y'all have a problem with it just because you don't like him.

Exactly, the Klinsmann defenders are using the substance of his statements and are acting like people are angry at him for WHAT he said instead of HOW he said it and WHERE he said it.
Very few people are saying what Klinsmann said was factually wrong.
Those of us who are fed up with Klinsmann are fed up with his need to make all his criticisms public and his need to tell the media everything he thinks is "wrong" with American soccer.
Garber obviously didn't agree with Klinsmann's decision to cut Landon Donovan, but did he spout off to the press about it when it happened? Nope. He keep his criticism private because it wouldn't have been good for US Soccer to have the commissioner of our domestic league second guessing the USMNT coach right before the World Cup.
I'm sure Garber would like the same professional courtesy returned.
But now Garber seems to be saying "frick that, if he says whatever the hell he wants about my league, I'll return the favor".
The Klinsmann family seems to have a tough time not saying everything that is on their minds without thought of the consequences.
