I don't see any other reason Canada was so embarrassing in Catar. If they have a coach with pedigree and experience…
This manager deserve another chance to do what I know he can do. No more old guys that can't keep up with the pace. Start playing the young players and getting them experience.
John Herdman has literally MILLIONS of reasons to be the coach leading Canada into '26. If he does, whenever he decides to retire from wherever, he can return to Canada and live off that status of being that coach for the rest of his life lol
This team is only two or three players away from greater success on the world stage. It's indeed and exciting time.
A great coach. So glad he's staying. 🇨🇦👍👍
I can't imagine Herdman has too many options better than coaching Canada, it's not surprising he's staying.
Good. Now get rid of John Borjan boy and we'll be fine
You'd better go, garbage coach
