It's good to have passion.

However, wouldn't it have been more effective to discuss tactics? Talk individually to players to help them understand how they need to change their game in the 2nd half? Look at how their opposition had cancelled them out and suggest ways to overcome this? Change formation? Study set pieces and instruct on which plays to use in the 2nd half? Point out weaknesses in the opposition?

Admittedly we only saw 2 minutes of the 12 they would have had, but why just show the hairdryer segment?

Just asking.

Is what we saw the halftime pep talk, or the after the game banter ?
Sometimes the coaches use language as though we going back out there to fight, but the message is really for the next game.  I saw one or two men bare back, so I guessing it could be after the game.  Russell also mentioned that Haiti put away their ONE chance to go ahead and then defended...so it could be the half time talk as well.  Then again he coulda just choose to not mention the penalty.
DAMN !!!  It's too confusing !  :frustrated:

Nothing really wrong with a pep talk at half time. Especially if the coach thinks his tactics are working but the players are being lazy. from the game highlights it seems that the strategy was getting them some success but apparently it was not sustained.


However, it seems that for the strike squad generation the default coaching point is always play for your country. Even on here you see that coming up everytime we lose a game. We need much more than just "play for the red, white and black". Our coaches doesn't seem to invest to much in the dynamics and psychological make up of today's youth players. They still believe that one size fits all.

He doing what he believes they needed. Things like this need to start from a young age.
I would question the clubs and schools. You cant wait for players to come to a National team &
develop all those qualities in two weeks. Is a mental conditioning thing developed over years
Everyone talks about college and all that, but the step from college to International ball is huge. Like people eh watch
the FIFA U20 competition, teams operating like seniors and players moving like man.
I watch some college ball this year and really most of the teams looked to lack organization and depending on one or two individuals. In general the players display a
lack of urgency and their body language quite frankly look only interested when the ball come to them.
Stop blaming local National coaches & put the blame where it belong, on the entire system (or lack of it)

I agree with much of what you say here...except the last part. Every player, every coach, every administrator should have the desire to improve and raise his game. Every Pro League club should make it their ambition to develop kids from the age of 8. However, I understand that there are often not funds available to do so. But coaches involved with the national team have the access to administrators who can source funding.
The pressure needs to come from below. In my memory, only Terry Fenwick has really spoken out about the lack of attention given to the development of football and how school football has had a negative impact on players growth. 
Far too much time is spent with the ball in kids coaching. They have the natural ability with the ball, but when they don't have it, they relax. Usually, your team doesn't have the ball for around 50% of the match. And even Messi will play games where he has the ball for less than 60 seconds in the game, but still score and be man of the match. That's where the improvement needs to come...concentration off the ball.
