Charlotte FC shocked the MLS world on Tuesday morning by announcing their decision to part ways with head coach Miguel Angel Ramirez, effective immediately.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
By Tuesday afternoon, they offered few details as to why they arrived at their conclusion that a coaching change was necessary.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
\u201cThere’s not much point to speculate to what exactly happened,” sporting director Zoran Krneta told media during a virtual press conference. “We made a decision for the best of the club. I wouldn’t want to go into details. It’s not going to help anybody. Some of you might think it’s difficult to explain, but it happens in sports very often. “<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
Without much by way of official explanation, speculation will persist. Krneta pointed to making a “decision best for the club” numerous times but didn’t specify why.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
“At the end of the day, we had no choice,” Krneta said. “We had to do it.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
For now, there are more questions than answers.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
Sources were similarly non-direct but expressed that it wasn’t exclusively performance-related. Sources also recognized this decision would be an unpopular one, underlining the club’s steadfast belief in making this coaching change.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
On the field, Charlotte have 16 points after 14 matches in their inaugural season (5W-8L-1D record). They are far from looking like the best team in the league, but in an expansion season, being competitive like this is viewed as a success. Particularly so when the preseason expectation around the league was Charlotte would be fighting to avoid finishing bottom of the overall MLS table.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
That leads many to assume the issue was with relationships, both between the coaching staff and the club as well as the coaching staff and players.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
