    now that he's american... where does his year rank amongst top seasons for all americans in europe? 20 goals across all competitions in ligue 1 feels pretty good.

    Great guy. But another coach who will make the players adapt to his system instead of adapting to the player pool. His in game adjustments leave a lot be desired as he will let the game get away from him.

    My couple positives among certain question marks I have…

    Jesse is the type of manager that dudes will run through a brick wall for.

    The Red Bull pressing style is much more normal worldwide than say when Berhalter was originally hired 5 years ago. Our players should fit this system better than Berhalter’s wanna be tiki taka.

    Sorry, still disagree. I think it was Tenorio that interviewed him after the Leeds appointment, Paul said, “there’s lots of systems that can work for different teams.” and Jesse spent an hour plus telling him how the “Red Bull way” was the only proper way to play. We’ve got too much on ball talent to play high press and pray ball when the WC is in our back yard.

    Agree to disagree again. We never tried tiki taka Outisde of Wicky’s u-17 run 4 years ago (THANKS FOR FUCKING THAT UP CLAUDIO!!!). Pep’s W-M he used at Bayern/MC is the same system GGG uses. We have the players for it but not the training time.

    Exactly. He’s failed in the MLS and ALSO failed in the Bundesliga and ALSO failed in the EPL!!!
