Isn't a coaching issue a Messi issue as well?

I feel the Revs drifting into "why the hell should I care about this team?" territory.

I like the talent they've got but... maybe not the right coach!

That footnote about the Galaxy makes me think you have thoughts, feelings, opinions about the job Greg Vanney has done managing this year and the decision to extend him despite how terrible the team has been this year.

Would be really curious to hear them because as a supporter of the Galaxy I can kind of see the long term logic in extending Vanney into next year, but also as a supporter it feels insane to reward what this team looks like this year with a multi-year extension.

I can't believe they extended him. Vanney's done a lot in this league, and deserved the whole year in charge (even if, IMO, he has not done well), but I can't believe they extended him.

I am also perpetually disappointed by how this team uses (or doesn't use, more accurately) their academy. Half the team should be local kids. If Seattle and Philly can do it, LA sure as hell can!
