The man just got global flak for being too honest. Are you surprised he said many things but nothing you can nail down. I truly hope he stays. The job he has done for Canada has been legendary.
The next World Cup will have 48(!) teams. There was talk it was going to be groups of 3 teams, meaning only 2 home games for Canada. Seriously FIFA are so greedy they’ve made their showcase a complete and utter joke. Why would Herdman stick around another 3.5 years to play another 2 games, which is what Canada has just done. He’s better off moving on in order to continue building his resume.
He is part of the process and growth and has a great rapport with players and fans, but I think as the team improves and strengthens, he might be replaced by someone with pedigree.
If herdman goes is going to be like many latin american teams, golden days going down the toilette…history repeating itself. New coach coming milking canadian soccer.
Just because the 2026 World cup will be hosted in Canada does not mean they will get out of the group stages or even go to the round of 16. I know that their will be 48 teams and it will be waterdown but don't have high expectations for Canada.
I am saying don't have high expectations for Canada because they would have relaxed and CONCACAF is not as strong as European or South American teams.
I think the opportunity to build a squad at club level will be appealing. When your only limitations are money instead of borders. I could even imagine a scenario where Ryan Reynolds (who’s definitely been watching) taps him for Wrexham should they stall in their climb.

I think he’s gone. He hinted as much, at his most recent press conference. The appeal of managing in Europe, is too grand to turn down.
It’s quite pathetic if they let him go then again I have zero trust in Canadian management

Herdman is a arrogant twat and sore loser but his success has been undeniable. He earned the spot.

Why would u fire him that is wickedness
His not coaching canada next world cup
Don't see what the deal his lost 2 games at world cup and could be 3
Whatever he does, all the best to him and thank you to him.
He is good coach, but he needs some media management lessons…and he needs to turn off his mic after the game…

If he does leave
I can see him become a manager in England
And best believe some of the players will go there to play for him
get carlo ancelotti

Would we be able to bring in a better coach with Canada’s budget. I can’t see it.
I suggest Zamboni driver
Fk john herdman, its as simple as that
He made us look bad, I mean he made us look AWFUL. Arrogant, disrespectful, with nothing to back it up… He must go.
