it’s a review of his whole career, he glosses over why he didn’t stay at NYCFC just saying “we didn’t agree on things and when that happens best to leave”

Yeah it might be the most boring thing I’ve ever read. He said nothing about anything to the point I can’t figure out why he wrote it.

Def #1 or 2 if you go by the ubiquity of their merch in Istanbul.

LionMOD: We rarely lock threads, except for cases when it's necessary based on the subject matter or the course of the thread.

LionNYC: Respect the man who gave us the pretty pineapple.

3.5 months have come and gone since anyone has posted in this thread.

The thread then gets bumped by someone asking for it to be locked. Classic.

[VernonJohn]

I think it's in the forum bylaws that any thread that reaches the 101st page must remain forever unlocked. Sorry man, I don't make the rules. <shrugs>

Apparently galatasaray fans have been absolutely hating him, and the sentiment was similar at flamengo.

The first comment thread apparently sums up a bunch of reasons for fan disappointment

Let's just say that our fanbase is pretty low-key compared to Galatasaray and Flamengo. VERY low-key.

Sometimes you find your ceiling. His might be either as an assistant coach or at a league like MLS.
