Hard to say how much role he's played in getting some of the dual national talent into the fold, so I don't know if I should credit him for it or not. I think the pool is deeper in higher-end talent than it was when he came in.

About the only good thing I think I can say for him as far as our play was that, at least early on, he fixed the Bradley-era problem with leaking goals from the middle of the field by playing a dedicated d-mid, vs. Bradley's dual deep playmakers who tended to leave a big hole in front of the central defense. But the other side of that was, we became a much less dangerous side offensively, which was pretty clearly reflected in his teams' historic lows in shots and goals.

All things considered, I'd count his tenure as a wasted opportunity to have hired a halfway competent coach, largely thanks to Gulati have stars in his eyes over the opportunity to hire a sexy foreign coach.

They finished fourth in the two-team tournament known as the Gold Cup, got beat in the Concacaf Cup, lost as many matches as they won in the Copa, survived a scare against Caribbean minnows just to make the hex, and are without a point thus far in qualifying.

in a lot of areas, but some of the stuff in the article iudomer posted below is pretty ridiculous. I can't believe they put up with some of it for that long.
