    The Soccer Solutions website doesn't seem to have been updated in a while. Is this a better version of First Wave?

    if this would of been announced last week, they'd probably get 90%+ renewals.

    Klinsy speaking last June:

    The soccer world is crazy, you know. Things come up overnight. I never thought I'd take the German national team to the last World Cup. I never thought that two years later I would take over Bayern Munich. So I don't know what happens tomorrow. There were calls coming in the last month [from Europe], but I resisted, because my family moved back in December to California, and we needed to get the kids settled. So you're not jumping on the next thing that becomes available. It might be a couple years down the road. You take things as they come.

    He's not the GM or the coach though?

    Why change your pics, he'll be gone as soon as he finds other people.

    We're not out of it just yet.

    This is the part where we then sign Bruce Arena as GM and Steve Nichol as coach, HA

    He's not just a head hunter. I suspect he'll be here a while.

    Counting on him to lead us to the promised land (ie proper coaches/gm)

    ^Jimmy, people in the know say he will be more than just a fly-by-night consultant.

    His role will be far-reaching and impactful.

    Please take this for what it's worth.

    He just signed for a new club. His contract is hefty. I know it may seem impossible, but...

    Michael Ballack as DP?

    This is pretty cool. It was the obvious north american choice, but I do always say play the easy ball. Klinsmans pretty badass, top level player and an interesting personality. Thing is who knows what type of contribution his role will allow. Interesting news none the less, see where it goes from here

    With a former coach that Ballack got along fairly well with, perhaps Klinsmann can convince Ballack to join Toronto?

    If not Ballack, then Klose? Who knows!

    The company's role will be far-reaching and impactful, no doubt.

    I was going to start brainstorming German DPs and bombard the forum with ideas (and I still may)...but at least I will be somewhat logical about it.

    Let there be no mistake - Klinsmann, from those that know him, is a weird kat.

    That's what got him into trouble at Bayern. I'll let the Bundesliga fans elaborate though.

    What's illogical about signing someone like Michael Ballack?

    I wasn't under the impression that the only possible DP's for Toronto were Canadian players who couldn't land a job in Europe and Spanish bench strikers who play for a lower half La Liga club.

    Imagine if New York looked at Rafael Marquez/Henry and said, "Naaah, it's not logical, let's just sign....Carlos Calvo from Xerez."
