Subject: Running for NT
If you don't understand what he is doing, shame on you, not him.
lol
So there's a wrong and right now?
Lakay didn't get results.
Is that wrong?
Lakay did a good job of collecting player for the NT.
Is that wrong?
I think I've been pretty truthful.
What you guys call wrong though is your opinion of me and your lack of research/faith.
Which is why I said I guess i'll just have to prove it to you guys over time.

Read it through a couple more times.
It makes sense.
It was an answer to whoever said all my answers are wrong.

Lakay did get results not consistantley but he did and I give him credit
Lakay has developed a new future for the US NT
u just want to make Lakay feel bad

No I really don't want to make him feel bad.
and I admit he did a very good job of finding players.
That's not my specialty
I'm more of a tactics man.
So I give complete credit to Lakay for developing the team
And if he produced good results in the World Cup I would've supported him afterwards and told America he really was the man for job and I wasn't.
But the thing is
he didn't....
He got "okay" results...but there was nothing spectactular. I didn't see any radical changes for games to try and get us a win. He just played a basic lineup and let the team try and win....which didn't work....

i think me and fla r done proving r point
one last thing.......
lakay didnt play a "basic" lineup he played the best possible lineup
especially with pickens and stokes being so badley out of shape we lost a great attacking line

Perhaps Llama meant basic 'formation', not basic 'lineup'.
Or maybe not. Thing is, there's only so much you can do with a given team. Even the NT.
Every team has it's strengths and as one of the smaller countries in the World Cup, we sure as hell have to play to the strengths we have.
I'm pretty sure Lakay did so this term. I saw only one match of the three that I really would have done differently on any significant level. Lakay actually wanted me to explain what and why, and took in my input.
He chose to disagree with a good portion of it, and that's fine. He took the time to listen, and I'm pretty sure he took and implemented a fair amount of the advice I gave him on scouting Netherlands that last game.
I still think that game was managed fine by him. They were by far the better team in talent, and to be honest, again, I feel two of their three goals were not exactly 'high percentage' goals/scoring opportunities.
I think what Llama needs to fully realize (not fully railing on you buddy, so don't take it quite that way) is that we are a small country in the Sokker world. Lakay may not have done a 'fantastic' job, but I don't think he did 'poorly' either, over the past 7-8 matches (cup and qualifying).
He had our team perform as expected, and although no one can be happy with that...we can't rail on Lakay for this either.
He did a pretty good job with the team, on the whole. Whether that would warrant a second term is up to him to run again (I know he has said he wouldn't...just saying) and up to everyone else voting.
Finally, as a popularity contest, I'd just say that if you vote against someone solely because you dislike their opinions...then you are doing a dis-service to the NT and the community.

Sorry
Thank you islander
I meant formation.
lineup...lol...i sure hope he played the best lineup (he did)
But i meant such a basic formation.
I figured u'd pick up on that since I talked about tactics for the rest of the post....
but w/e my mistake.
and no...u didn't prove ur point....i proved my point and then u just stated that urs was proven?'
that, my kind sir, is a wrong answer ;)

Well you definitely added a lot more to this post.
Yes I do realize that we are a smaller country in the sokker world.
And maybe i have been a bit harsh on him, so I apologize for putting down his performance so much. He didn't suck it up...but I'm just saying he didn't live up to the expectation of (in my mind) the winner of the Major League.
Which is why I gave him more credit for building a future for our team, cause I'm sure that's how he got his team to where it is, instead of a more tactical base.
it wasn't poor, but it wasn't amazing. He chose to disagree with a lot of your suggestions and it resulted in a loss...
He's more of a manager than a coach in my mind.
Just how i view it

You guys are very funny; I would be crazy to let Mr Llama get to me.
Next NT elections, Cats or Fro would be the safe choices but I'd like to have a few A-League choices.
