I think he may be making fun of the the "jk" thing. Similar to someone making up the paraphrased Chelsea player quotes.

I've gotta say, I've been awakened. These last two months I completely lost interest in the team, and was just waiting for the new season to start, and a new kit, and hoping for the best. I even delayed renewing my seats until the very last day because it felt like this team was headed towards a dead end. Getting rid of Kreis has lit a spark in me again. There is a new hope.

Because I think it's more likely that the cowards behind the story shopped it to real journalists first and gave it to Alexis when they rejected it, than that Alexis made it up in his head.
Seriously, isn't this just a riff on the Phil Lamb criticisms of Klinnsman?
Or am I really living in a world where 2 of the 3 teams I care about have been managed this way?
If it's a manufactured story and not a joke or the truth, it's really lacking in creativity.
He claims otherwise.
Maybe this is a big "Never no mind," but I think you can never go wrong displaying contempt for nameless sources who anonymously badmouth someone. And if it turns out they didn't exist but were made up by Alexis, then my aim was off-target but the scorn is even more warranted.
I am looking forward to see the player reaction in the coming days. I doubt any will really say anything negative, but if most are silent that is really telling IMO.
ETA: Admittedly this is a sideshow. If folks didn't question me about it (and I understand why roxfontaine and
Midas Mulligan did) it would have been a one-off post. I'm not losing sleep over it.
I was just curious if it was real. I thought it was another paraphrased famous manager criticism. It looks like the dude at least intended it to be legit. I have no basis to pass judgment either way. But evidence suggests it may not be far from the truth.ETA: Admittedly this is a sideshow. If folks didn't question me about it (and I understand why roxfontaine and
If he didn't give sound instruction, it would explain why almost no one grasped what he wanted as well as the wingavoy and why to a man no one new seemed to mesh well.
Craven. Oh dear. The coach didn't deliver and was fired for it. We move on.
Right. The notion that a control freak like Kreis "didn't give direction" is laughable.
That he might have lost the players, however - well, that seems possible for sure.

Don't worry the new hire will crush your dreams and hopes soon enough.
Trying to remember any MLS coaching change after the 1st season ever working in this league. But then again there are others that held onto a broken coach too long. Orlando?
Got in a fight with my boss and quit my job. Come home to find Kreis has been fired. Today was a good day.
I'm sorry you and Jason are unemployed. I hope you both land on your feet soon.
