The hiring of Gerhard Struber by New York Red Bulls was followed by the somewhat deflating news that the 43-year-old Austrian would not be joining the club for several weeks. Any hopes for an immediate takeover were dashed by the realities of immigration law and covid-19 quarantine, with six-to-eight weeks being the general party line on his arrival. While Bradley Carnell has been a capable interim in both improving performances and guiding new personnel into the side, the news that the future boss will possibly be providing lineup and tactical input before relocating to America has not assuaged concerns over this period of limbo for the club.
