USA head coach Jurgen Klinsmann should leave the United States and become England manager

The idea that England would always be superior to the USA at football was once a small crumb of comfort to me in the world of sport, but it has, like the idea I would always have a full head of hair, become nothing more than a false certainty of my youth.

Rather than scoff at footballers who pledge their allegiance to the stars and stripes, is it now time for the English to recognise that America are just another football nation who have evolved into a better national team than ours?

Consider the evidence from the past two World Cup tournaments. The USA finished above England in our Group in South Africa and progressed further in Brazil than us, despite being drawn in an equally daunting group alongside European heavyweights Germany and Portugal.

It certainly offers the basis of a persuasive argument to suggest the USA are in better shape, although what it screams to me following their impressive narrow Round of 16 defeat to Belgium – the Americans have even mastered the English art of heroic sporting failure – is that Jugen Klinsmann must be a leading candidate to succeed Roy Hodgson as England manager.

It makes zero fukking sense because prior to the WC, Bradley was one of the bright spots of the team. Dude was literally beasting in the mid almost every game.

I never seen such a person fall off so fast for no damn reason at all. Most people end up getting injured to slow their play up or age. This dude just went trash for no damn reason at all

I feel the same way. Bradley in the friendlies leading up to the World Cup was looking great. I know the competition wasn't as good, but he was playing great. He never looked comfortable out there. No idea what happened.

Too bad the USA can't get Osvaldo Alonso out of the Cuban national team situation.

I think we SHOULD follow the USA in the way. Pick 23 players who are terrible at football but who will run their socks off, maybe from Championship/League 1 level. Maybe get the same results.


I mean are we acting as though the likes of Charlie Austin and Danny Ings wouldn't walk in the US team?

They just might pass up the current England squad

No no seriously. You could pick a team of England players who play in the championship who are better than the US team. Just saying lads.

I said as a TEAM breh. There's a difference between a better team and better individuals. You should know this by now since you're a fan of the sport.
