Cincinnati, OH - With the announcement Jaap Stam being made head coach of FC Cincinnati, a number of local fans stated that they hope the Dutch manager doesn’t choke during his first season.

“I’ve seen it before, but I’m always worried about the possibility,” stated one anonymous fan. “I’m mostly concerned that he will choke during the season. It’s a scary possibility. Hopefully we don’t pay a price for this hire.”

A number of fans report that their main concern is how he deals with players on the field.

“When push comes to shove, I’m just worried about his relationship with onfield players and whether or not he chokes in the moment,” stated Phillip Granderson of Cincinnati. “His managerial history indicates that we don’t really know what we are getting here, so I’m a bit underwhelmed. I just hope he manages to not choke with the players we have at our disposal.”

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as eager fans keep a close eye on the results.
