CMNT Head Coach Approval Rating - January 2012

[Moldy9]

I like this approval rating survey that you conduct - funny cause if you would've had it out there when we were tying puerto rico and st kitts you'd probably get 10% for Hart.

With the talent we have I don't think it's a big ask for us to comfortably win games against nations like St. Kitts and Puerto Rico. The USA beat Panama away with a squad less talented than ours and they are complaining about the performance! We need to expect more if we want to go anywhere.

Disagree.

The USA squad that beat Panama recently may be MLS based, but there were alot of good players there, and the following would either be starters for us, or certainly be in consideration: Shea, Bunbury, Feilhaber, Parkhurst, Cameron, Wondolowski, Pearce, DeLAGarza. In addition, Jones (Shalke) and Clark (Frankfurt) played for them as well, with Jones in particular having a standout preformance. To call that team less talented than ours is a bit of a stretch, I think it would be more fair to say they would be near equivalent.

I do agree however that we need to continue to raise expectations and demand better results. The GC was very unfortunate, as were the results to the minnows, but we had a pretty challenging group in GC so I can excuse that. We can't advance every time. As for the minnows in WCQ, some times things do not go our way. PR bunkered and St. Kitts had their backs against the wall. To me it was more important how we reacted in the following game, a 4-0 victory.

I gave Hart moderately agree BTW. I think he is good for the group.

Apologies for the bump if you've already seen this, but it's real busy around here these days, and I think some people may have missed this.

Any more votes?

I voted mderately disapprove! Hopefully the results against the minnows and to some extent the GC were a result of Hart experimenting and pushing a style to the players that will be effective in the heat of the next round as some posters believe! Getting JD2 and Hoillet on the field will make him a much better coach!

I voted strongly approve. There are things I have disagreed with, and there have been more than a few of them. But I think that on balance we have been successful on the pitch. We have qualified for the next round of WCQs, so job done there - it doesn't matter to me that we didn't do it in swashbuckling style. And our results in the Gold Cup were about what I would have expected, even though we didn't advance because the other results did not go our way. I'm hoping that SH can find a way to break down other teams though because that will be the key to going any further in WCQ.

I vote moderately approve. With the types of talent we have, I don't necessarily agree with the formations he's running. I'd like to see something more like a 4-2-3-1. We are too strong with attacking mid and weak out wide except our fullbacks. I think using guys like DeRo out wide is wasteful...

Go over here for the current poll.

I can't remember was the June 2011 approval rating before or after the Gold Cup?

Actually, during, but mostly before; results got a little worse after Canada's exit. Bad timing decision on my part, won't happen again.
