It's nice to see that Menezes believes in Pato's ability and potential. Pato will be playing in the Copa America along with Thiago Silva.
Selecao's Squad for the Upcoming Copa America Goalkeepers Victor (Gremio) Julio Cesar (Inter) Defenders Daniel Alves (Barcelona) Maicon (Inter) Andre Santos (Fenerbahce) Adriano (Barcelona) Lucio (Inter) Thiago Silva (Milan) David Luiz (Chelsea) Luisao (Benfica) Midfielders Lucas Leiva (Liverpool) Ramires (Chelsea) Sandro (Tottenham) Jadson (Shakhtar Donetsk) Elias (Atletico Madrid) Elano (Santos) Paulo Henrique Ganso (Santos) Lucas Silva (Sao Paulo) Attackers Robinho (Milan) Alexandre Pato (Milan) Fred (Fluminense) Neymar (Santos) This post has been edited by amancik: Jun 8 2011, 07:26 AM |

So,yes they need Kaka. This post has been edited by William405: Jun 8 2011, 12:04 PM |

I don't think they need him with Adriano and Santos around.

USA has fired Bob Bradley and officially hired Jurgen Klinsmann.
http://www.goal.com/en/news/13/united-stat...named-usa-coach I'm happy we finally have a legit international coach. Hopefully we can finally form a team capable of making a WC run. Any thoughts from the rest of the world? La Palma, any German insights? |

Is he really a great coach though? He managerial career bascially consists of 2 jobs where it was easier to succeed than fail, yet he managed to fail at one of them.

How did I know when I opened this thread that Kurt would be here with the predictable pessimism. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I'm very happy to have him as coach, I hope he was given full control of the team, including the youth system. I think he is the right guy for the job. |

I heard he has been given full control. I just hope he does well and makes a difference on a system wide level. Of course Kurt is pessimist, can't let the old colonies have the hope of any glory can we? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |

Yes, because clearly I hate America. What a pathetic response. Instead of just making stupid little comments, tell me where I am wrong I said he failed at 1 of his 2 jobs, unless you guys feel he was a success at Bayern? God forbid you say anything remotely negative around Americans, jesus.

The tone is unnecessary. Let's keep it civilized, shall we?
Klinsmann is yet to be tested. He had a very good status (particularly in Germany) after the World Cup in 2006, when almost everyone begged him to stay at the helm of the National team. I think one of his smart decisions was to quit and keep his aura as a winner. At Bayern he failed, but it was a curious decision from day one. Both sides (the other being the Bayern management, Hoeneß and Rummenigge) really took this a bit halfheartedly. But in the end, you can very well say that he failed with a transitional Bayern squad. One thing however is sure - Klinsmann likes the US, he prefers living there and he's always bringing some American coaches with him. So I think he'll do his job not only for the money, but also for his heart. That's a good thing for a NT coach IMO. |
