The story that's got everybody talking this a.m. is that all indications are that Bob Bradley will have the interim tag removed and be named coach of the U.S. national team. I don't always agree with Sunil Gulati but I think this time he got it right; hopefully Bob is getting the nod out of respect for his work, not because all of the European prospects said "no". So if anyone at Blue Sky Soccer is reading this, let's get those "In Bob We Trust" shirts knocked up in time for the Gold Cup.
In other coaching related news, former FC Dallas skipper Colin Clarke wants the Northern Ireland job vacated by Lawrie Sanchez. Depending on who else is up for the job Clarke might have a shot at this but his resume has a few blemishes (not one trip to MLS Cup, and his last post was with the now-defunct Virginia Beach Mariners of USL1). Good luck to the boy though….how funny would it be if Colin "I can't win the Western Conference with all the talent in the world" Clarke got a job in Europe before Bruce Arena?
And while I'm at it I'll throw this bit in there as well about Mo Johnston. It seems that he has uncovered yet another forward to bring into his side, this time Dundee man Collin Samuel. But it seems that the immigration boys up there in Canuckistan are once again trying to cock-block MoJo. I'm starting to think that his coaching strategy is "the best defence is a good offence…or at least the most offensive players you can mathematically have on your team".
