NOTGOING: United Coach Tom Soehn's Hot Seat Cools Off

2
It appears that rumors of a rift between DC United management have been greatly exaggerated. It also appears that Tom Soehn is staying put. This according to Steve Goff, the soccer insider who states:

Tom Soehn will return for a third season as head coach of D.C. United in 2009, the Insider learned today.

OUTGOING: Tom Soehn's Job Threatened by "Short List" Request?

7
Is Soehn the next to fall? Msybe.

We just received the following rumor via our maildrop. Whether Soehn is done now or after the season doesn't matter, if this rumor is true then the club must think he has lost the team. Bad news for United which only adds to the news today that their nearly $2 million dollar man, Argentine playmaker, Marcello Gallardo is done for the season. Click to continue reading...

THE GREAT DC UNITED COACHING DEBATE

0
This season I have been very quiet in regards to "my team", DC United, but it is now time to weigh in on the coaching issue. I always hate to muddy the waters of BigSoccer with facts but sometimes it is just unavoidable. The current debate seems to revolve around the demise of Tom Soehn and who should replace him.

The aftermath: Soehn

2
Tom Soehn wasn't one to hold back his thoughts after the DC's 5-2 loss at the Galaxy. He said the match officials had a rough night before calling the red card against Marc Burch a "travesty."

I gotta take a bit of credit for the last comment.

At the post game presser, Soehn answered a question about the defense and another about the Galaxy. Click to continue reading...

I will never be ashamed of being a D.C. United fan.

I have never been ashamed of a D.C. United team.

However, I am ashamed at this game. Not even at the players, and how they played it, but rather ashamed that it has come to this. With a home match that is crucial to United getting out of the group stage of the CONCACAF Champion's League, D.

Champions again!

In a season that's had its fair share of ups and downs, we've finally got something to show for it! Maybe a title in the US Open Cup wasn't necessarily the goal for this season, but it's certainly an accomplishment the team should be proud of, and most importantly, its great that United has fought its way back into the international picture.

WVH Watch List: Coaching Hot Seat

There really is no need to brag about getting something as right as saying a coach should be fired at anytime in the year. I know other sites will say they called it and what not but I like everyone else knew Fernando Clavijo's time in Colorado was about two years too long. So with that [...] Click to continue reading...

File under "The Better Team Over 90 Minutes Won."

It wasn't that United played horrible. This was a decent effort from United, an effort that even improved as the match went on. There were a few defensive and midfield giveaways, but none of those were directly responsible for the two New England Goals.

Do you fully understand the importance of next week's semifinal game against the New England Revolution in the Open Cup? I'm not sure that you do. United is one win away from playing for its 12th championship. The only thing standing in the way of another title shot is the New England Revolution.

Right place at the right time

On Wednesday morning, D.C. United Academy U-18 player Denillo Lima was out on the RFK Training Fields getting in a little extra training by himself. One field over, United's first team was beginning their training session. Then, Denillo was called over by United Head Coach Tom Soehn, who asked if he'd be willing to train with the first team to provide an additional body.

D.C. United eliminated from Superliga 2008

I suppose that there should be some feeling of grief, but really there isn't. Tom Soehn did the right thing and sacrificed this match, and I imagine most of us had already gritted out teeth and pulled the bandage off that hairy bit of the arm. It hurts, but not as bad as you might think.

Still not discouraged

0
To finish in last place in the tournament that we all had charted as our lowest priority this year isn't exactly a tragedy. It's a little bit disheartening, but not discouraging. Because I think the team played quite well, considering our current injury status and packed schedule. And I also think we showed more and maybe deserved better than the 3-1 loss last night and zero overall points in Superliga. Click to continue reading...

You're into US soccer, right? So you've heard about Chris Agorsor, then?

You should know.

Knowledgeable types around, let's say, RFK Stadium might tell you he's a bit raw, not refined tactically, a bit skinny, even. So he's got a long ways to go, but sooner or later he might be spectacular. Click to continue reading...
