I am not a big maturana fan but the real problem is the not just the coach or the players. The problem is both.
It appears as though maturana have the guys using some type of approach that they are not comfortable with, looking at the game live yesterday (close up at the stadium and not on TV), the players were looking totally confused at times, not sure of what system there were suppose to play. Now it could be the case the players are just dunce and not maturana confusing them but I will give them the benefit of the doubt.
That being said, these players suppose are big hard back men with ah brain so common sense should tell thim that they have to tackle and not escort the US players to our penalty box, that 2 men atatcking against 6 defenders have little chance of scoring, etc. So even if maturana is confusing them certain football instincts and knowledge should have prevented that disgusting display yesteday.
We genuinely have a talent problem and lot of allyuh don't want to accept it. People keeping talking about julius, atullah, scotland, spann, hardest, etc who are going to be our saviours. Our players are not ready, they can't trap, pass, tackle, think, etc. As Obama said, if you put lipstick on a pig, it is still a pig. If we hire scolari or wenger or who else allyuh willing to fantasize about, we still don't have quality players. Our best squad is still the starting eleven from the world cup except theobald. Bleeder is ah ranking shitsnake.
