For US Soccer fans there is no more polarizing figure than manager Jurgen Klinsmann. These days it seems that everyone is either firmly in the fire Jurgen camp, or they’re firmly in the pro-Jurgen camp.

On Sunday, Manchester City’s Sergio Aguero elbowed West Ham’s Winston Reid during City’s 3-1 victory. While Aguero didn’t seem to make full contact on Reid, it surely seemed like there was some sort of intent and caught Reid’s throat with enough of the elbow as he had to be subbed out. Almost immediately, social media […]
