Soccer Betting News - U.S. Soccer Finally Gets Rid of Bradley and Hires Klinsmann

    Soccer Betting - USA Team Predictions

    Disappointing Under Bradley

    The United States men’s soccer team in recent years has been a disappointment on the world stage in soccer betting odds. Part of the reason for their failure was head coach Bob Bradley. The U.S. team simply made too many mistakes, lost games they shouldn’t have and failed to live up to expectations. Whether it is fair or not, Bradley gets a big share of the blame.

    Klinsmann Knows How to Win

    Unlike Bob Bradley, the new head coach of the U.S. soccer team knows how to win. He was part of the West German team that won the World Cup in 1990 and the club that won the UEFA title in 1996. He also managed the German team to a third place finish in the 2006 World Cup. The change has definitely affected the soccer predictions for the USA national team.

    Players Should Benefit

    There is no question that some players that were suffocated by Bradley are going to thrive under Klinsmann. One of those players is Freddy Adu. He should be a dynamic playmaker under the coaching of Klinsmann. Another player who should blossom under Klinsmann is Brek Shea who is having a great year for Dallas. Jose Torres should get a fresh start with a new coach and could do well.

    Not Much Time

    Klinsmann has less than two weeks to get the U.S. team ready for their next match against Mexico. It won’t be easy but Klinsmann is a good coach and the match against Mexico is just a friendly. The match against Mexico is set for August 10th and soccer betting odds will be on the board at BetDSI Sportsbook. Other friendlies coming up for the U.S. are against Costa Rica on September 2nd and Belgium on September 6th.

    U.S. Players Excited

    Most of the U.S. players are excited that Klinsmann is the new coach. They won’t openly come out and say it but playing for Bradley was like being stuck in the mud. Landon Donvoan said his teammates are “all excited.” Stay tuned for more soccer betting news from BetDSI Sportsbook.
