Bradley had lost the team, but he did squeeze probably a ton of talent out of the guys.
That being said, his tactics and team choices were awful.
Also, Kinsmann has promised to promote a rehauling of the US Youth System. That, along with the USSF following the instructions on Claudia Reina's instructions, and it's pretty clear that the USSF was ready to take a jolt in a different direction.
I am very excited but nervous. Klinsmann understands both the sports culture and how to set up a youth system. Can he do it? Well, for the US, I surely hope so. If we can start getting our top athletes into soccer, not all but some, and get HIGH quality coaching, then the US could become a force, IMO.
