Whatever happens domestically, or even with the national team, America still seems more interested in the European leagues so it makes sense they'll look to a European to turn things around. Saying that I don't think the problem is that Klinsmann's not American, or that he's European, I just think he's a politician first and foremost, whose primary objective is power. Porter might be a solution, but it could equally be someone else, from Europe or wherever. Someone like Glenn Hoddle would be a fantastic replacement IMO. Much maligned when he was managing England but a real long term thinker with a genuine (and innovative) interest in developing things at a grass roots level.
