Jurgen Klinsmann has been relieved of his duties as head coach and technical director of the United States Men's National Team. It's been a rough few months (or years depending on how you want to look at it) for Jurgy, with himself mainly to blame. With the rest of World Cup qualifying coming up in 2017, a new head coach needs to be named. Former USMNT manager Bruce Arena is largely considered to be the man US Soccer will tap given his familiarity with the qualifying process and international play overall before handing the keys over to a new coach after Russia 2018. But is he enough? Let's take a look at a few unconventional options...
Uncle Rico
All he needs is a chance, folks.
Kim Jong-un
He's never lost at anything ever and there would be no media distractions around the team. Underperforming players would end up getting fed to dogs or blown up by anti-aircraft guns from point-blank. You think they'd ever dog it at training knowing that? Not. A . Chance.
The Troops
I can't be the only one who thinks if the troops wanted to they could put together a coaching staff and dominate international soccer.
Lebron James
Lebron James could have been the best soccer player in the United States according to every 4 years when casual fans tune into the World Cup. The next best thing is having him as our coach. Just like handball, track and field, basketball and every other sport, Lebron could dominate coaching if he really wanted to. It's unknown how him subtweeting all his players would affect team morale.
The Internet
It's about damn time we let the internet commenters of America have their say. Before they can become president and fix all our nations issues while simultaneously copy and pasting articles from Elite Daily, Huffington Post and BuzzFeed, they can prove themselves by taking over at the USMNT. The Internet has had plenty to say about Klinsmann and routinely offer up their counterpoints and tactics, so let's put them to good use. There will be polls every match day to determine the starting lineup, since polls are one thing we all agree on. The main downside will be when we have to replace our captain when the new coach constantly makes fun of Michael Bradley's bald head.
Coach O
US Soccer needs an interim coach, and there is no better interim coach than Coach O. PFT Commenter has already laid the groundwork for Interim Ed's tenure as USMNT head man.
Maybe what our futbol team needs is a rough and tumble Cajun football guy. We already know he will focused 100% on winning...
He'll bring some toughness we have been straying away from (classic soccer)...
And he can get locker rooms going...
Electric pump up speech. That's a World Cup guaranteed. Downside is you have to fire him right after because once you take away the "interim" title his magic is lost. But I'm all in on making Ed Oregon the next head coach of this nations men's soccer team.No one gives a pep talk like Coach O. #SECInside pic.twitter.com/WcovKUooGO— SEC Network (@SECNetwork) November 17, 2016
PS-We all know there's only one option for our new technical director. Someone good with finding and grooming young talent and putting together a winning roster to break long championship droughts.
