Hey, it's Scott from StreamPunk Soccer, and it's taken a little while, but we did get there
0:04
The New York City Football Club has announced that Pascal Jansen, the 51-year-old out of London
0:08
who most recently was coaching for Ferenc Svaros out of Hungary, would be in fact the new head coach taking over for recently dismissed head coach Nick Cushing
0:16
Jansen does have a good record overall, 17 wins, 6 losses, and 7 draws with Ferenc Svaros
0:22
Overall, a 144-71-51 record across three different teams in about one decade
0:29
I do know that a lot of the fans in Farron Shavaros were disappointed by the fact that he was dismissed
0:33
despite the fact that he had success over the course of the year that was there. But for fans of the New York City Football Club, this is something that you guys have been waiting for for a long time
0:42
Now, my question is simple on this one. How much of a leash does this man get
0:47
This team only has about six weeks before their season opener against Inter-Miami
0:51
The team's not going to have a ton of time to get acclimated to the new head coach here. and the question is how long of a leash will he end up getting if the team struggles out of the gate will nycfc fans ironically enough turn on him and actually want Cushing back in Obviously that is never going to happen A lot
1:08
of the fan base were not happy with Nick Cushing, and he never really won over the team itself
1:13
But I think there's a skeptical optimism that the Pigeon fans have when it comes to chancing here
1:19
My question, like I said, is very simple. At what point are the fans going to embrace him
1:23
or turn their back on him. I think given the fact that the team got to the second round last year
1:28
despite having the youngest roster in MLS and beating FC Cincinnati in three games
1:34
the stakes are going to be a lot higher this time around. And the expectation, I think, is going to be Eastern Conference final or failure
1:40
That's what I said at the end of last season. I'm saying that now, even with the new head coach
1:45
We will get the press conference when it comes out. I'll have more information for you guys when the time comes
1:50
But as a fan of NYCFC, are you happy with this head coaching choice
1:54
And what are your expectations of him as the new head coach of the team
1:58
Let me know in the comments. I'm Scott, as always, from StreamPunkSoccer. Thanks for the time
2:02
Stay well. And as always, stay awesome
