Omg true

Gf to Gf couple goals.

She just isn't ready to retire yet. She wants to play through the Olympics and retire at the end of 2020

Eloy...I see where your head's at. It would be cool. Maybe in a few years, if that's her desire. Beyond the olys coming up. How often do you see that in any sport...a veteran career coming to a close and jumping right back in as a head coach? Anyone would probably hit the couch for a few seasons, take a breather and take stock of their options. I would've suggested O'Reilly before the WC, but unfortunately, she opened her mouth and made a fool of herself on television. Ha. It was cringe worthy and don't get me started on Lalas (what an imbecile). But, it is a shame you don't see any former players turn coach. Imagine Solo as a coach...that would be one tight ship!

@G K ...yeah, I can't go there. She held this team back. She came in at a great time, with the best resources and the best talent pool. And they've been off kilter the whole time. Sure, they won this one. They've lost others. I felt this WC was a lackluster. They beat up on Thailand and partially Chile and did just enough to dominate flow and outlast everyone else. The team deserves the accolades for rising over the multi-managing...not the coach.

That's a good take there Chris. I like that you linked what you saw during the matches. I didn't notice in the WC myself, but, can certainly add that I've seen him do much of what you said during the build up and in friendlies. Any time you catch audio of the bench...it's Gustavsson yelling. Didn't he announce his retirement too? I'd think that you know that I am no fan of Ellis. I'm happy she's stepping down and quickly too. Maybe we can finally get a decent keeper? The problem is with her experience. Prior to the senior team it has been all college teams and the US equivalent (u-20, u-21). 16 years in a plug and play scheme. They're kids, trying to figure out the game and themselves. There aren't a lot of consistent options and I think that translates to her coaching style at this level. She put out a constant, ever changing, never the same, line up...every game. That's what a college coach has to do as the players are unreliable. She had these 5 years and never found her groove. She never developed further as a coach. She couldn't trust that she made a correct decision and stick with it. Or she couldn't trust the players. The incessant flip over shows this. She can't evolve. Even right to the end...didn't she put Heath in as a defender for a half right before the WC? WTF? What a waste! I do not think she is great. She's ho hum, clueless, just throwing meatballs at the wall. She came in at the right time with a solid, unwavering core that did it themselves. Again! This team is a recycling machine of experience, expectations and organized style. They take care of themselves for the most part. A coach is mostly inconsequential in soccer. They really can only ruin it and never be the reason for winning. I think Ellis added restrictions and nearly did ruin it. The players play the game. It's a fluid game, in response to an unscripted adversary. Action reaction. They have to just ebb and flow with the tide. It's not something you can script and have set plays. They have a series of 3,4-pass movements they work on in drills and in game action, they just flawlessly fall back on them if they're in the right position and the field allows it. I think it's a testament to the players' abilities to overcome the chaos and just make it work. Which they barely did. Wasn't flashy. They left a tremendous amount on those fields.

If you actually followed the team, you would know that his roll was to focus primarily on offense while Jill focused on defense. I’m not a big fan of Jill, but to say he actually coached the team is sexist and ignorant. A good coach has a good team around them. That doesn’t mean she wasn’t involved. Sheesh.

​@@kycone I been watching their games for a long time as far back as the 1999 USWNT World Cup championship game in the Rose Bowl. If you actually read my post, I stated it in the first two lines, that I was wondering who was actually calling the shots in terms of the tactical decisions. Nowhere in my post did a say he actually coached the team. She may have been involved and like you said she focused on defense. Frankly, after watching what she did with the defensive line over the last three years, going from a 4 person to three-person line and then putting a midfield player on the defensive line and watching what happened when she did that I have to wonder if she knew anything about rebuilding a defensive line. She saw in 2015 that it took a solid 4 person defensive line to win the 2015 World Cup yet she still went with only three until it blew up in her face in the "She Believes" and "Tournament of Nations" tournaments as soccer fans saw watching this team over the last three years. Curious how long have you been watching the USWNT games ??

@@chrisradovan7642 dude. Nobody has time to write essays just because you don't feel like giving a female coach due credit.

Injured

She made a statement saying she was gonna play for the olympics😄

I think she'll play due to the fact that the olympics will be in 2021 and she mentioned that she would play on her IG
