Interesting backhanded compliment

“What the world needs is more geniuses with humility; there are so few of us left.”
Given Fraser has known Vanney since Vanney came into MLS 20 years ago, I think its not backhanded - Vanney as a head coach (interesting about Berhalter) has taught Fraser stuff he didn't expect to learn from somebody who he known for so long & was his assistant at Chivas.
This also is setting up Colorado for change - he wants to move them to be a tactically nuanced team.

I get the feeling one of the reasons it took Fraser so long to commit to Colorado is he was negotiating how things were going to be run & how they were going to set up the team in the next 2 years. IF they give him even a medium size MLS budget with DP's that make sense (e.g. not a keeper), he might be able to make something out of that space. He's smart enough to use the altitude to advantage.
There is also a strong knowledgable soccer community in Denver that would support a more uptempo team, something more akin to 2019 MLS then 2009.
