Sigi Schmid is staying at Seattle, no? He's certainly under contract.

Kreis interviewing with Chicago certainly makes it very clear that he wants to get back to work as soon as possible. So that rules out any deal with us - or that he's doing a "wait and see" type of...

I'll be happy with 8 pts out of 8 games on the road. Tough to get road points. 6 wouldn't be the end of the world either. Less than that would be problematic. More than 8 would be a huge victory for...

Well, Vanney has 8 games to keep his job - according to Manning. Not sure how much stability there is in that. That's another thing I don't like about this situation. Give the man another year, or...

At this point that's the mood I'm trying to get myself into as well. Vanney is staying. He gets an off-season and a pre-season, and at least 8 games to start the season. If we see improvements, then...

I think Giovinco could have made a difference on any of those teams, but it's obviously not possible to say how much of a difference. All I know is that there's probably not another player in this...

No experience. No track record. No style of play. No proven coaching ability whatsoever. I wish we could show up at job interviews, say that, and get the BIG job right away.

I understand that...

If not being able to address or fix issues, and have players speak out against his questionable tactical approach to the game, then you'll likely get your wish.

Oh well, it would have been pretty incredible, but looks like we're stuck with Vanney for now.

We have a lot of contacts in Italy, so it kinda makes some sense to me on that level. Also don't underestimate the involvement of Giovinco and his agent. Giovinco doesn't want to be managed by a...

Well, he would easily be the biggest name & most accomplished coach to ever work in the MLS if signed by us. I'm very skeptical also, but with TFC you just never know.

Last 3 years the league was won with DP's, so to say that getting DP's is a bad idea is silly. We would have been last place in the league without a guy like Giovinco. I don't buy that getting star...

Kreis may not have been interested in the TFC job. Think about it: Kreis can pick and choose any club he wants in the MLS - why would he pick us?

Walter Mazzarri would be a great choice. Compare...

Exactly. They could have easily signed a very experienced manager and put him in place - it's not because they didn't have other options. They want to build up Vieira to take over City one day. He's...

That's a unique situation, really. I'd like to see a head coach from the MLS land a big league job on his own merits without a sponsor making it happen. Bradley is one, and probably Kreis could land...

European clubs value experience. Unlike us. Goes to show how hard it is to get a top league job in Europe - even with Bradley's credentials (he even won manager of the year in Norway). I wonder if...

Seattle is an ambitious club, and they want the very best. That's why I think (if Sigi is out) that Kreis will be named manager at Seattle in the very near future. They'll probably give him a top...

It's tough getting a top coaching job in Europe. Even with a big resume like Bradley Sr. it's not like Ajax is calling him. Compare that to here where we hire people with no resume. No wonder we're 9...

Better defenders would have helped, but no doubt our tactics were not right most of the time. Hence the raining in of goals.

None of this speaks well of Vanney.

I personally think that Kreis is...

What concerns me the most is that when Vanney took over in the last 10 games of 2014 we conceded 1.5 goals per game. He talked about fixing that - because it was certainly a concern, but failed in...

Let's just say that he failed in the biggest way possible when it really counted. There's absolutely nothing of value to take out of that Montreal game. Absolutely nothing. This is the sort of...

Stability light. He gets 8 games basically. Short leash. Vanney falls short in those 8 games of 8 pts (or about) then we'll be looking for a new coach in May. Do you still feel happy?

He tinkered with the tactics all year long, and yet the problem persisted. Got worse towards the end. I definitely think we need a very strong CB. It's pretty much the first thing that comes to mind...

We kick off the season with 8 games on the road. Worst case scenario is that this stretch will be awful and Manning will have to act and fire Vanning. If this happens we're looking at a new coach in...

That may be true, but we hired him to make tough calls in tough situations like this one. He decided to throw his support behind Vanney, and that may come back to haunt him at a later date. No one in...
