Jurgen Klinsmann is a bad coach, but the USMNT needs him
The United States men's national team's Gold Cup losses to Jamaica and Panama were pretty embarrassing, and they have a lot of people wondering if Jurgen Klinsmann should be removed as head coach. Another contingent of fans thinks Klinsmann should keep his job because of all the good he's done for American soccer. They're both right.

U.S. Soccer president Sunil Gulati spent five years courting Klinsmann and finally got his man in 2011 by giving Klinsmann full control of the program and the shiny job title he always coveted: head coach and technical director. In addition to Klinsmann's duties as senior team manager -- a full time job by itself -- the buck stops with him in all matters of youth development. He doesn't just have a say in the operation of the Under-20 and Under-17 national teams, he also created a new Under-23 national team and influences how the Development Academy system works. It's a huge task, and it's way too big for one person. Read more here

MLS All Stars host- Spurs! Cue deflation all around, and people are saying that the MLS now has All Stars from both coasts so that they can stop inviting foreign clubs. But other fans like it because it's the only time they get to see foreign clubs on home soil. It helps that Spurs has a growing fanbase in the states. Arsenal, Barcelona, Real Madrid and Bayern are seen as sexy sides, but eh, you can't get top totty all the time

Harry Winks (far right) is a keen scrabble player, and his Instagram account is private. Boo.

Townsend and Danny Rose aren't on this trip. Townsend is injured and Rose lost his passport. Chile, I guess... Kane is on this trip. Interesting, Pochettino! Interesting!
