gator Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Thank you Floro! It didn't work out for many reasons debated on here, who's next is the big question now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rheo Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 I backed off my pro-Floro stance a bit from where I was before on here. I wouldn't of complained if they gave him another two years but I'm not surprised. Hopefully we get the right person and can continue the progress we've made under Floro.

shermanator Posted September 14, 2016 Author Share Posted September 14, 2016 Right decision, IMO. It was to be expected that he would not be renewed after not making the Hex. The friendlies in October / November are key here. Continue building chemistry within the squad, hopefully with the return of faces that were not involved in some of all of WCQ (Osorio, Johnson, Teibert as notables) and work some new players in (Chapman, Hamilton, potentially some U-20s) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyslexic nam Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Even if there is no cap-tie implications, I would love to see the interim coach give a few of the youngsters a call-up. Give them a look in the context of the core players, and hopefully encourage a commitment to the senior program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GimliJetsMan Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 If qualifying is the goal, I'd like to see a CONCACAF based manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrennanFan Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Im surprised and disappointed that Floro did not resign / announce that he would not seek a contract renewal. When you fail as a coach, you have to fall on your sword. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd also like to see Hamilton and Chapman get a call up. Hamilton has shown some clinical finishing ability and I could see his role become our backup striker to Larin.

Maybe not quite the new era yet but hopefully some fresh ideas. I am hoping when they name a new coach he allows the players a bit of freedom.

Floortom Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Pretty obvious decision. Floro failed in all measurables IMO (Gold Cup, Olympics and Hex). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaeltfc91 Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 We need to see some MLS players that are young and getting playing time like Osorio, Teibert, Larin, Akindele, Aird, Alphonso Davies, Froese, Chapman, Hamilton, Bekker. Mix in the veterans like Johnson, Edgar and De Jong. Throw in some Champions League players like Borjan and Hutchinson and a couple youth players on top clubs in Europe like Tomori, Zanatta, Josh Doughty and Liam Miller and were are cruising Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grizzly Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 The right decision as long as the goal is to upgrade on Floro and the CSA resists all the pressure to hire a Canadian or Canadian based coach. I am not against a Canadian coach in principal but there is no one who has a coaching CV even close to being what we should consider for national team coach. A few of the top MLS current or former coaches might be acceptable choices like Bradley, Schmid, Arena or Marsh but I think there are should be even better candidates available.

nolbertos Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Hallelujah, no more piss defending futbol, as if Canadian can only defend. I advocate a coach who advocates an attacking philosophy, preferably Latin Ameeican like Jose pinto. We need to develop more attacking strategies, even if we lack attacking players. Time to shed that stereotype that Canadian can't dribble, shoot and start slowly developing a new style Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never joined in on the debates on the "Floro must go" thread as for me it was pretty much an academic consideration. It was obvious this was going to happen, and if we do not want a soccer culture where failure is considered acceptable, then this had to happen. I'd guess I'd be more sympathetic if he didn't take the risk of deliberately not calling some of our best players - but that's what he chose to do and we weren't successful with it. I do wish him & his son the best for their future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ref Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Congratulations CSA for finally getting rid of Floro. Question to Voyageurs: in your opinion is Floro the worst coach we ever had, if not who is the worst in your opinion. My vote goes to Colin Miller.
