Capello: offerta in arrivo dagli Stati Uniti
11:05 del 07 novembre
Dopo il divorzio con Bruce Arena, i New York Red Bulls sono alla ricerca di un nuovo allenatore e sognano un grande nome. Su consiglio di Trapattoni che allena una squadra con lo stesso sponsor (il Salisburgo), il club statunitense avrebbe posto Fabio Capello in cima alla lista dei desideri. L'aspetto economico non sarebbe un problema, come dimostra il livello delle alternative: Klinsmann e Mourinho, che tra l'altro sarebbero cercati anche dai Los Angeles Galaxy di Beckham.

Gullit
juventusita;2434291 said:MLS playoffs are definitely flawed, but I believe their reasoning is this: two legs in the quarterfinals gives the better team a chance to advance and is supposed to give the 1 seed a greater opportunity to not be upset by a 4 seed. Then, I would say the semifinals is designed to give the upper seed another advantage by playing a one-off game at home. Obviously, it doesn't make sense. I think it will just take some time to develop a good system, just like the early days with the overtime shootouts and what not. The problem is creating a playoff system that makes the regular season and seeding important. However, it is pretty difficult to do that because two legs doesn't give either team an advantage and with seeding, 1 vs. 4 is not a big gap in team ability in the MLS. For those fans who think they should adopt the format of pretty much every other league in the world and don't have playoffs, at this point I think the MLS knows that Americans like playoffs and they choose to have them to draw more media attention to the league and the sport. They are in a difficult spot and I don't really know how they could do it better, but they should have either one leg or two legs for the whole thing, except the final (which would be one).
I am a bit surprised at the Gullit appointment, but I think it's overall pretty good for the league. If LA sucks again though, it will be a disaster. It is a strange position to have possibly the future of the league balanced on the success of one team. However, if LA is successful under Gullit, we can continue to expect big-name players and managers at a faster rate.
