Comments on: Ellinger to Join Hyndman’s Staff http://www.3rddegree.net/2008/06/12/ellinger-to-join-hyndmans-staff/ The Independent FC Dallas News Source Tue, 24 Jan 2012 02:09:31 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Matt in SF http://www.3rddegree.net/2008/06/12/ellinger-to-join-hyndmans-staff/comment-page-1/#comment-10924 Matt in SF Thu, 19 Jun 2008 07:05:23 +0000 http://www.3rddegree.net/?p=1632#comment-10924 Clearly Hyndman is making sure that he has no serious competition for his job waiting in the wings and putting pressure on him to perform. Instead, with Ellinger in the #2 spot, it will make Hyndman look like a genius in comparison.

Forget the RSL thing (only Bob Bradley has had any wild success with expansion teams in this league). Look instead at his success with developing young players at the U-17 and Bradenton Academy levels. The list of current American players in MLS and Europe that he helped develop is impressive...VERY impressive. Seems like a good fit at both the Asst. Coach and Asst TD position regardless of who the Head Coach is. IF Ellinger has been hired, and IF Hyndmann is the new head coach, this seems like a really good deal to me.

Apparently he will be wearing a dark cloak and in one hand will be a sickle and the other will be a tablet with Real Salt Lake crossed out and FC Dallas just under that. I'll keep my eye out for him. :evil: I have never seen Ellinger before, but from the description given by the RSL fans, I think that he will be easily picked out.

Kreis' results might not be any better than Ellinger's, but at least his (Kreis') starters would make other MLS teams. Almost all of Ellinger's acquisitions are in the USL now.

I don't really think tactics is the problem here. He could be the Bobby Fisher of soccer, but he isn't going to beat anyone with this collection of ill-fitting parts. I think the problem is how this roster is constructed, and I have ZERO confidence that either one of these guys can do anything to improve that situation. So good luck playing chess with 8 knights and a bunch of pawns. “If Hyndman is solid tactically as some people seem to think he is…”
