I'm definitely happy to have Klinsmann(I've wanted him forever) but I just feel people were a little to hard on Bradley. He did a pretty good job with what he had in my opinion. Our ceiling at that point in time was basically reaching the knockout round in my opinion.

Playing Ricardo Clark instead of Maurice Edu in the first half of that Ghana game was the absolute worst managerial decision in the last 20 years of USMNT soccer. Clark was having a horrible WC and Edu was on fire...you ride the hot hand, especially since Edu was a better matchup against the Ghanian midfield.

He should have been fired on the spot for that decision.

Other than that, he did a decent job.
