I'm not exactly sure what the bar is for firing a coach. Gregg hasn't done anything particularly awful to deserve firing. But it seems abundantly clear he is not going to be the one to take the
#USMNT
to the next level.
@kickswish
This is how I feel. You can’t really fire the dude for stuff like this.
Performance wasn’t terrible, Canada is a good team, etc… but his limitations as a coach seem pretty clear at this point and they’re not insignificant.
@kickswish
he had no reason to get this job beside his inside connection .This team is super talented (# of players playing in Europe ) , Concacaf is at best a 5 teams competition for 4 (31/2) spots .Despite his poor decision this team will make it on third or 3 1/2 spot instead of 1 or 2
@kickswish
Only way it happens is if the team misses the WC. They've been underachieving for a long time, so either the leadership is bad, or the talent isn't as good as we think it is.
@kickswish
Zero chance he is fired by USSF unless failure to qualify. USSF could never adjust or admit wrong, especially since the process to select him was limp and corrupt. We broke it, we bought it.

@CantHitWRISP
He refuses to put his best players on the field. Pepi changed the game but apparently GG thinks his best position is the bench
@kickswish
Sometimes it’s the razors edge between success & failure. But all indicators show that his hubris has put us in a position to fail. We may still yet qualify, but we will be in a position of weakness going into the Cup. The goal is not simply qualifying, it is making a deep run.
@kickswish
It’s not willing to change for me and clearly doesn’t bring the best out of our players his tactics don’t work with our personnel.
#Berhalterout
@kickswish
Poor tactically and lacked any response at half time and bringing on 4 MLS players to secure the lack of offense punch Berhalter must be held accountable - then we players long ball for last 7minutes - embarrassing!!! Wake up Ernie and McBride !!!
@kickswish
His MLS garbage strategy doesn’t work. When you call players like Zardes, Lliget, you don’t deserve to coach this team. He is going to waste the best talent we have had.
