    Hard to find a polite way to say I don't care who the US manager is or who Big Sam manages next as no offence is intended. The only ex Sunderland manager I've ever looked out for is Mick McCarthy. When folk leave that's generally my interest gone in them.

    Just a cry for help.

    Great idea though. Lots of mutual benefit in this. We can offer redemption, retribution, adoration, and probably lots of $$$$$, all he has to do is sort this mess out.

    Be a great job for him. Brilliant lifestyle in California is it?

    As you say, lots of cash and a chance to be a part of the history of a burgeoning national team.

    Trouble is it could go the other way and be a bit of a Don Revvie/Harry Redknapp type thing. Disgraced and then a failure abroad.

    This thread makes me really miss Outlaw. Possibly my favourite ex poster.

    Aye I still like Mick I wonder how well he would have done if he had had the money the useless twats have spent since he left? always look out for his results every week.

    Were Costa Rica not the surprise package in the 2014 WC. Klinsmann had tipped them to go far as they were assembling a talented team. It maybe worth sticking with him as the US are going through a transition.

    He never had much of a budget where ever he's gone and always fashioned a respectable squads who are tougher to beat than they should be. I hope he gets a club that will back him with cash one day. He deserves it.

    To be honest Bri if Moyes ever did leave I don't believe he would do a bad job for us if he was given the money the other managers have had I also believe most of the Sunderland fans would be right behind him.

    He's gone from being linked with the England job to being sacked by the USA <laugh>

    Looks like they have gone for a known safe pair of hands in Arena. I feel for Klinsmann as he did a huge job in their 2014 WC efforts. They are rebuilding but I guess not fast enough, a bit more patience in their young team and they could be rewarded.
