I don't think there will be much speculation considering this announcement comes on the heels of Klinsmann walking away from Germany. Hmmm, let's see here, Klinsmann lives in Southern California, Team USA does a lot of their practicing there, he just led Germany to a 3rd place finish, and this has been talked about for weeks. The writing is on the wall.
I look forward to seeing what Klinsmann brings to the U.S. team. The team should be a lot more innovative and creative with their attack. I mean, the guy made Germany fun to watch. The US needs it, too, they looked like a high school trying to attack.
