List of Chivas USA managers

Featured list candidates/List of Chivas USA managers/archive1

Nominator(s): Brindille1 (talk) 05:00, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm nominating this list for FL, continuing my streak of Major League Soccer-related lists. This one covers managers for the defunct Chivas USA, which had an unbelievable nine managers across ten seasons. This list follows the same format as List of New England Revolution seasons, with a written summary of the managerial history as well as the list of managers with results.

"competed in Major League Soccer (MLS) from 2005 until it folded after the 2014 season" - this wording could be interpreted as meaning that Major League Soccer folded in 2014. Suggest rewording to "competed in Major League Soccer (MLS) from 2005 until 2014, after which the team folded"
"Chivas USA introduced their introductory" - can you change one of these words so the language is less repetitive?
"at a press-conference on September 23, 2004" - there is no hyphen in "press conference"
"and with the team at a 1-8-1 record, " => "and, with the team at a 1-8-1 record, "
can you clarify within the article what a "1-8-1 record" is? To me, as a European, it means one win, eight draws, and one defeat, but it appears that in America it means one win, one draw and eight defeats
"he became team's sporting director" => "he became the team's sporting director"
There's an issue with the ref template after "losing in the first round each time"
"Before hiring their next coach, both Shawn Hunter (the chief executive) and Stephen Hamilton (the vice president of soccer operations) departed the club" - Hunter and Hamilton left the club but then hired its next coach? That doesn't make sense. I think the initial clause needs changing, as presumably the subject of that clause is the club.....
"with the team in last in the Western Conference" => "with the team in last place in the Western Conference"
"a lawsuit against the club alleging discrimination for not being Latino." => "a lawsuit against the club alleging that they were discriminated against for not being Latino."
"Sanchez Sola not always followed" - as this is apparently a direct quote, can I just confirm that the statement contained this grammatical error?
Wilmer Cabrera image caption needs a full stop.

Comments

Apologies if I duplicate anything from ChrisTheDude above.

There needs to be a comma after Carson, California
Disastrous in the heading seems a little too much editorializing. Just "Debut season"
All the records need to have en dashes (i.e. 1-8-1 should be 1–8–1) I would recommend {{Win-loss record}} actually
end of the season, he announced comma isn't needed
within a month, but was hired as the manager comma isn't needed
national team, and stepped down comma isn't needed
one season, and was fired comma isn't needed
filed a lawsuit against the club alleging that they were for not being Latino. they were what? "Fired"?
as well as by Chivas USA." quote mark goes before the period
to a 3-6-12 record, and on comma isn't needed
its last match, and it ceased operations the next day --> its last match, ceasing operations the next day
Match results contain all league games as well as MLS playoff matches. "as well as" should just be "and"
The use of {{Abbr}} for "Win%" isn't correct. I think you are shooitng for a footnote here, which can be done using {{sfn}} and {{Notelist}}

That's all I got Brindille1. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 16:29, 17 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the feedback, @Gonzo fan2007. I've addressed each of the items, except for "quote mark goes before the period"- the current text is correct based on my reading of MOS:QUOTEPUNCT Brindille1 (talk) 01:42, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
