So, how does the proverbial crow taste? Yes, USA got to the semis by luck, but beating Spain was completely straight-up skill. That was amazing.

undisciplined teem with too many yellow and red cards. Too many penalties and teams take advantage of our reckelss plays and score on their set plays of indirect or direct kicks. Too much space given to teams, poor defense, transition horrible and our middle fielder who keeps getting beat and cannot get back into plays needs to go, I believe he is not playing today because of a red card. Now we are up 1-0. Fire Bradley on Monday, have an interm until Kilinsman signs, which would have to be in the next three weeks. If not, hire an expereinced coach, love dutch coaches, maybe even Bora, ouch never thought I would say that, now we are up 2-0.

It’s time for a change. We are not showing heart. If Bradley doesn’t step down, what does he have to be proud of for the last several performances?

I have been a soccer fan all my life and i can not stand BOB BRADLEY!!!! who is he??? If you have seen all the games that the US has played ever since Bradley has become coach he has changed everyone in the line up at least ONCE WHEN HAVE YOU SEEN HIM TAKE OUT MICHEAL BRADLEY???? Why is it that MICHEAL BRADLEY is the only one in the US team that has played every single minute. Does BOB have no sense of embarrassment that he is the only one that has called up MICHEAL and has never taken him out of a single game!!! ladies and gentlemen he is the next US captain and the next big STAR!!! ATLEAST ACCORDING TO HIS FATHER.

President Sunil Gulati
US Soccer Association
1801 S. Prairie Avenue
Chicago, IL 60616

Dear Mr. President,

I wish to express my unconditional support for soccer in the United States. I have been a dedicated fan, player, coach and referee since 1990 and will continue to support US Soccer for as long as I am able.

I wish also to express my lack of confidence in Mr. Bob Bradley’s ability to coach the United States Men’s National Team in international competition. He has demonstrated a failure to field a team that can consistently manage the ball, avoid reckless mistakes, or avoid making unforced turnovers, all of which are skills basic to competitive soccer at even the most elementary levels. I believe that under Mr. Bradley’s leadership the United States will not compete to the best of our ability in the FIFA World Cup South Africa 2010, as evidenced by our poor representation in the FIFA Confederations Cup South Africa 2009. I wish also to express my confidence that the United States is able to produce a team that can represent these basic skills, if managed by a more capable coach who emphasizes personal commitment to excellence and team commitment to a stated strategy that best fits our strengths and disposition. I am in support of your previous efforts to recruit Mr. Jurgen Klinnsmann and would be very pleased if you would continue your efforts to recruit this talented, capable leader.

You are well-regarded and much appreciated for your commitment to and accomplishments with US Soccer. I wish you continued success. Please consider my measured comments and proceed as you and our Board of Directors judge best to give the United States fans our very best representation on the international stage next summer.

Kind regards,

Maurice D. Gosby

Bob Bradley, like Bruce Arena before him, is a poser. We need coaches with pedigree. People who have played and coached the game at a high level. Enough of this taking a coach out of the U.S. ranks who has moderate success and thinking he can take the Americans to the World Cup. Different ball game. Different culture. Different tactics. Different environment. Unless you have been there before, you have no clue. Just where has Bradley coached before? The Chicago Fire? Are you kidding me? This qualifies him to lead the U.S. against the best in the world? Someone better wise up and wise up soon. The way it’s going America will get its clock cleaned in South Africa–that is IF the team is able to qualify.

the US play the game like a bunch of kids who have never seen soccer before. there is no flow to their game and for some reason they can’t string 3 passes together. they are over rated in the rankings because they never play any teams that have indoor plumbing. the only reason we have good goal keepers is that they are getting shelled so often. i know lets play long ball to our forwards and have them take on 4 defenders. I love that our head coach was a temp and is going to lead our team to the World Cup all I have to say is COME ON

England and Ireland have Italian coaches who are result oriented and its working for both countries. And with the US practically having a bye getting into the World Cup, they wouldnt even have to sweat that out like Trap does for Ireland. HIRE AN ITALIAN COACH!!

Bradley never played anywhere. He has not credibility as a World Cup coach. The U.S. has enough money to hire a real coach, but they are afraid that the coach they hire will know more than they (the Federation) do. Bradley is an amateur coach who rode the coat tails of another lucky coach, Bruce Arena, a lacrosse player who somehow became a soccer coach. Bradley’s hiring was a joke. His continuation as coach with how horrible this team looks right now is a travesty. He needs to go!
