Bruce Arena doesn’t beat around the bush. He tells it like it is. New England Revolution fans — like all fans of the teams Arena has managed throughout the years — have seen this hard-nosed, opinionated attitude plenty of times.
The Revolution have had a disappointing start to the season. They have only tallied one point and have been marred by a variety of issues. Even if their performances have been encouraging, the end result is still somewhat lacking.
Despite these bright spots, Arena, who is ever the whip-cracker, has seemed to be rather hard on his players.
