Might he not be as much, or more, of a yes man than anybody else? Olympique_de_Marseille 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an interim vs. Ghana the team played well so i think he had proven he was competent (i doubt Floro would have kept him if he was an idiot). If we get some scrub there's a chance he/she is a useless tool. David C. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK point taken but as is the unwritten rule in any sport, the head coach gets to choose who his assistants are. Herdman gets to make those choices. You can't be inflicting an assistant on a head coach because the desk jockeys say so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree, that’s why the CSA should give him a youth team or maybe become a scout, while a job opportunity comes about. I still can’t believe the CSA gave Herdman everything !!!! So stupid !

In regards to Herdman, if he did in fact use the England job as a bargaining tool and said it's the CMNT job for me or I'm taking the England job, I'd have said good luck in England! We don't know that happened of course. I hope it didn't. If the offer came from above without prompting because they felt they needed to ditch OZ for some unknown back room reason and needed a quick replacement ..... without prompting from John, that's a different story and is also very possible.

soccer.shocker Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Over the last 5-6 years (BF to present) all accounts Findlay probably played the biggest role re: both duals and the evolving player pool. He was probably the guy who went around translating whatever BF said to potential players during his tenure and doing all the reaching out to guys under OZ since reports seem to say OZ had virtually no contact with players outside of camps. Makes no sense to me why either CSA or JH would want the staff coach with most depth of knowledge about the MNT player pool out of the picture, at least not so early into JH tenure. Especially with the controversial firing / hiring shit show. I'd imagine either MF lined something else up (CPL, UK maybe) once he was passed over (again) for JH or else JH wanted the whole slate wiped clean, which leaves Stalteri as the last man standing (so far) heading into next camp.
