Players still backing coach


Speculation hovers silently over Coach Juan Carlos Osorio amidst the New York Red Bulls' slow start, and coaching positions at the club are historically volatile - in it's 14-year history, the club has had 11 coaches.

In times of potential crisis, nothing is more important than a unified front among players and coaches. That seems to be the case among the Red Bulls, as Stefan Bondy of the North Jersey Herald reports that three of the team leaders - Juan Pablo Angel , Kevin Goldthwaite and Seth Stammler - voiced their support of Osorio after Wednesday's practice.

"I don't think there's been any change in how guys look at Juan Carlos," Goldthwaite said. "He's always been a real meticulous guy with a lot of tinkering. We always took that with a grain of salt and it hasn't changed in the last two months. "You got to assume that in any organization, in any sport, there's going to be speculation when you go on a run like we have. Juan Carlos does a good job to put that aside and prepare us for the next game."
