    Disorganized

    She was always playing games mentally with the players. She would say one thing to a player then say another to someone else. Good coach when things are going good, and a different when things are going bad.

    She is not a great recruiter, so her teams tend to drop off after 4 or 5 years. As a result, many positions are not filled with quality players. Overly defensive minded to a fault. Not a good coach for mid-fielders and forwards. Many key players don't like her communication style, and they lose the love of the game under her teams. She is a good defensive coach.
