Who knows what's going to happen so this is just pure speculation or maybe a topic for next cycle. But if that is the case we can't afford an expensive coach with international pedigree from Europe or South America, so let's be realistic.

Need a good coach that first and foremost fixes the backline and connects with the players and can be respected in the locker room.

My best bet is Paulo Wanchope for these reasons:

1. Costa Rica currently is the Giant in Concacaf and he was an important part of the movement as he was the assistant during WC 2014 and then interim head coach until Ramirez was hired
2. Knows Concacaf well and what it takes to get points
3. Speaks English and can connect with the players culturally/ethnically. Has a name in Premier League and most of these players look up to that league.
4. May be able to recruit more players of heritag in England since he was a standout player there and knows everyone
5. Has done extremely well calling the shots as Technical Director at Saprissa (recently eliminated Portland in CCL and Saprissa keeps on exporting more players to Europe than any other team in Concacaf) and he knows Aubrey David who he brought to Saprissa

The alternative? An Italian coach who can fix the backline and play this team to its strenght (Counterattack). Francesco Guidolin who recently was at Swansea but had very succesful career at Udinese. Won Italiam Cup with Vicenza back in the days. Knows how to get results as underdog.

@DL ... didn't he also send Aubrey away from Saprissa? :P

One day we will get you to sign a full disclosure agreement.

Just popped up as he is familiar with the setup and culture given his previous stint. Beenhakker credited him for a lot of defensive restructuring and tactical preparation of the team back in the 06 campaign and WC.

He was given a raw deal in 07 with the whole post WC fiasco. His learning curve coming in wouldn't be as steep, even if SH were to keep his job he would be a good consultant to address that deficiency.

i could address that defiency..when the other team have the balll everybody play defence..eg. when we have the ball, Costa Rica and Honduras immediately have how many players back, not counting the ones tackling the ball, i counted no less than 5 in strategic positions, Adjusting with movement of the ball. But oh gorm, if defenders at National level can't understand where the should be for every defensive formation, if National players has to be told when and how to cover, if a National player recieve a ball without it bouncing off to an opposing player, if National Players can't shield a ball, or head out and not up..then the issue is on field team selection. Irregardless of where the individual players play.  Honduras passing the ball to men in the middle of a triangle of 3 of our men, without any fear of losing the ball, because no one fronting the pass, ..a National coach need to teach this ? fine tune yes, but every play..if we were getting an overwhelming support on offence it would be understandable, but 2 men in front, 3 men in back, and defensively George and Hyland in middle, which leaves us short JJ and Cato defensively...they are the weak links, we need them tackling and covering and centre backs covering wing backs and the cm covering the spaces, depending on attack side...attack coming from middle, then dependin on side, at least one wing, would be the 1st blocking point of the defensive triangle..we can't only see all our players only when we have the ball..and no pass should be coming thru the middle of 3 men at no time..that cause uncertainty, with who is to make the tackle, so no one goes... we teach these things in house league.

Man say stopper and 1st stopper oui foute...... Anyway, regardless of that defending is a mentality and it is not stressed at the youth levels. Regardless and I digress from the topic at hand the issue with this national team isn't SH, we have seen what they are capable of doing under him, but one within our culture of knowitallism as we have too many people on the sidelines looking to inject their golden opinion as to what NEEDS to be done and no coach can fix that. In 2015 look at the style, level and quality we were playing up until late last year. What changed was the environment within which the team was operating and that was totally controlled by SH.

I would go with Z Vanes because he knows what type of football TT should play he would have the team play through the midfield instead of just going down the wings he would probably bring S De Silva back into the team and together with K Molino our 2 technically best players will unlock any defense in the HEX and would have the team playing more organized playing a 3-5-2 system.

Walter Zenga
Luis Oliveira (former Serie A stand out, World Cup player with Belgium)
Ernesto Corti (recently won El Salvador league in his first season)
Jeaustin Campos (currently coach of Cartagines, former Saprissa coach and Puerto Rico NT coach)
Mauricio Tapia (won two of the last titles in Guatemala with Amtigua, knows Mekeil Williams)

An experienced coach in Costa Rica overall remains the best bet. Carlos Watson of Saprissa for instance. Costa Rica has the best football in the area after Mexico and experienced coaches in Mexico are most likely out of the budget and not interested in a precarious position.

Wanchope
Carlos Watson
Jeaustin Campos
Mauricio Wright
Javier Delgado
Ronald Gonzalez
Odir Jacques

Can the TTFA afford a new coach?

Of course they could.. the dictator pocketing most of the money, he does get upset when he see Hart and other salaries

The current govt and ttfa haven't released how much funds have been allocated, the reason being because the dictator running his schemes
