<p>Bob Bradley and his son, Michael, are remaining with Norwegian side Stabæk, despite the club’s recent relegation. The former United States men’s national team manager <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/news/bob-bradley-returns-to-norway-to-help-stabaeks-relegation-battle-20230910-WST-455252.html">previously accepted</a> the position in Norway earlier this fall. Stabæk sat 15th of 16 top-flight teams at the time of Bradley’s arrival at the club. </p>



<p>The Blues had hoped that the American could help the team avoid relegation by moving out of the bottom three. Nevertheless, Bradley only won three of the club’s final 11 matches in the current campaign. While the results were disappointing, Stabæk was hoping that the former <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/nations/usmnt-tv-schedule/">USMNT</a> boss would remain with the club. </p>



<p>The team even called Bradley’s decision to stay “a Christmas present.” Stabæk revealed on Tuesday that the American will continue leading the club in 2024. </p>



<p>“On Tuesday morning, Bob Bradley informed Stabæk Fotball that he wants to continue,” the club proclaimed in an official <a href="https://www.stabak.no/nyheter/2312-stb-bb-fortsetter" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">statement</a>. “After a period of uncertainty about the coaching situation for the coming season, this is a fantastic message to both club and fans just before Christmas.”</p>



<h2>Michael Bradley to join father, Bob, on Stabæk coaching staff</h2>



<p>Not only is the coach remaining at the helm, but his son, Michael Bradley, will also stay on with Stabæk as well. The former USMNT star midfielder recently announced his retirement from playing. Bradley played his final match with Toronto in October.</p>



<p>The midfielder, however, quickly transitioned to coaching after departing the <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/mls-tv-schedule/">Major League Soccer</a> side. Stabæk revealed that Michael Bradley will coach under his father.</p>



<p>“The plan is that Michael Bradley will also continue and become a regular part of the coaching team around the A team, which chairman Espen Moe is very happy about,” continued the club. “Michael made a very good impression this autumn, and will be an important contributor for Stabæk Football in the future.”</p>

<p>Michael Bradley made 151 total appearances with the USMNT between 2006 and 2019. Only superstars Cobi Jones and Landon Donovan managed to grab more caps for the Yanks than the midfielder. Bradley also featured in over 500 games at the club level as well. A majority of these matches came for Toronto in his last 10 seasons as a professional player.</p>



<h2>Bradley previously won Norway’s Manager of the Year with club</h2>



<p>Bob Bradley has a long history with the Norwegian club. The former three-time MLS Coach of the Year previously managed Stabæk from 2014 to 2015. He was even awarded the Eliteserien Manager of the Year in the latter season. The Blues finished third in the top-flight table that year, qualifying for the <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/europa-league-tv-schedule/">Europa League</a> playoffs.</p>



<p>Nevertheless, Bradley quickly departed Stabæk at the time to manage Le Havre. The Ligue 2 club eventually missed promotion under Bradley based on a failed tiebreaker with Metz. The American coach then had spells with Swansea City, <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/lafc-tv-schedule-los-angeles-fc/">Los Angeles FC</a> and Toronto before returning to Stabæk in September.</p>



<p>Both father and son will now get plenty of time with their players before the next season starts. Norway’s second-tiered division typically starts in April. Seasons then usually run until November, with subsequent promotion playoffs to follow.</p>

Bob and Michael Bradley to remain at Stabæk despite relegation

Bob Bradley and his son Michael will continue coaching with Norwegian side Stabæk despite the club recently suffering relegation.

<p>World Soccer Talk’s Norway national football team TV Schedule has every game shown in the US, so you’ll never miss a match.</p>



<p>Unlike the Norway women’s team which are former World Cup, Olympic, and European champions, the men’s side has not been so successful.</p>



<p>The Norwegians have only played in three World Cups – 1938, 1994, and 1998. Though they did make the knockout stage on two of those occasions. At Euros, well, they don’t make Euros very often. In fact, their only appearance was in 2000 where they finished in ninth.</p>



<p>Norway did win a Bronze medal at the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games, when men’s soccer was still a senior tournament and not the U-23 event as it is today. A fun  note about Norway is that they are one of very few teams to have played Brazil and never lost. In three friendlies and a World Cup group match against the five-time world champions, Norway is 2-2-0. </p>

Norway national team TV schedule: View Norway Games On TV

World Soccer Talk's Norway national team TV Schedule has every game shown in the US, so you'll never miss a match.

Norway national team TV schedule: View Norway Games On TV - World Soccer Talk


<p>Bob Bradley is back with Stabaek, a team in Norway he previously coached, returning to management after being sacked by Toronto FC in June</p>



<p>The club announced that the 65-year-old has signed until at least the conclusion of the current season. </p>



<p>Bradley first joined Stabaek in 2014.</p>



<p>He was in charge for two years, during which time the Norwegian side reached the <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/europa-league-tv-schedule/">UEFA Europa League</a>. In 2015, under his leadership, the team finished in third place, but since then they have fallen well short of that mark.</p>



<p>Then, in November of that year, he took charge of the French club, Le Havre. Bradley had been unemployed for little over two months after being released by Toronto FC in the midst of a disastrous season in every manner.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

One key for him is, “Making everyone feel more a part of something.” <a href="https://t.co/L68yomsvXP">pic.twitter.com/L68yomsvXP</a></p>— U.S. Soccer Reform (@reformussoccer) <a href="https://twitter.com/reformussoccer/status/1700955120496672901?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 10, 2023</a></blockquote></div><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
</div></figure>



<h5>What did Bradley say of his Stabaek return?</h5>



<p>“Stabaek are a very special club, with fantastic people and a fantastic history. I am very happy to be back and to be part of Stabaek again.” Bradley said upon his return to Europe, via the <a href="https://www.stabak.no/nyheter/bob-er-tilbake--stabaek-er-en-spesiell-klubb" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">team’s official website</a>.</p>



<p>“I’m just looking forward to starting work. We had two very good years here last time and I followed the club and kept in touch with many people since I left. I know that there is a lot that needs to be done in a short time, and we have discussed a lot about how we can take the club forward in the right direction.”</p>



<h5>Who are Stabaek and why was Bradley let go of Toronto?</h5>



<p>Stabaek, from the Oslo suburb of Baerum, are presently 15th with a 4-11-4 record in the 16-team Norwegian Eliteserien. Last week, the team fired coach Lars Bohinen. They will probably be holding their breath in the hopes that Bradley might revive their glory days.</p>



<p>After a dismal 3-7-10 start to the season, Toronto’s front office decided to part ways with the former <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/nations/usmnt-tv-schedule/">USMNT</a> coach, who also served as their sports director on June 26. The Canadian side had only won two of their previous 17 games (2-7-8 overall).</p>

Bob Bradley returns to Norway to help Stabaek's relegation battle

After being let go by Toronto FC in June, former USMNT boss Bob Bradley is quickly returning to the sidelines.

<p>Erling Haaland will not feature for Norway during their Euro qualifiers this month with an injury. The superstar striker picked up a seemingly minor groin knock during Manchester City’s <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/fa-cup-tv-schedule/">FA Cup</a> match with Burnley. Haaland scored a hat trick for the club before being substituted after 63 minutes. The reigning <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/premier-league-tv-schedule/">Premier League</a> champs won the game on Sunday 6-0.</p>



<p>Norway team doctor Ola Sand confirmed the setback on Tuesday. </p>



<p>“After doing tests and examinations yesterday it became clear that he will not make it for the games against Spain and Georgia,” <a href="https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/65024899" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">claimed</a> Sand. “It is better that he receives medical follow-up at his club.”</p>



<h5>Striker is scoring for fun at City</h5>



<p>Haaland is currently in the midst of an historic season. The 22-year-old forward has racked up an incredible 42 goals in just 36 total games for <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/manchester-city-tv-schedule/">City</a>. He has already broken the club’s Premier League season goal record for a 38-game season. Now, he is just four goals behind Mohamed Salah’s modern Premier League record of 32 goals in a campaign. City have 11 top flight matches remaining on the schedule.</p>



<p>In the Champions League, he tied a record with <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/news/haalands-five-goals-send-manchester-city-to-quarterfinals-again-20230314-WST-423392.html">five goals in one game</a> as City pounded RB Leipzig, 7-0.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<div class="ck-youtube"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Man. City vs. RB Leipzig: Extended Highlights | UCL Round of 16 - Leg 2 | CBS Sports Golazo" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/HbU00zi0r3A?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div>
</div></figure>



<p>Norway head coach Stale Solbakken revealed that Haaland was disappointed with the injury. “Erling took it hard when he realized that he could not fight for the team,” <a href="https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/65024899" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a> Solbakken. “Fortunately, there is still plenty of self-confidence, talent, and cohesion in this group to win points in the next matches.”</p>



<h2>Injury forces Haaland out of Norway squad, where is in form, too</h2>



<p>Haaland has equally performed well for his country compared to his club. In fact, the striker already has 21 career goals in just 23 appearances for the senior Norway team. He previously made his national team debut in September of 2019 and needed just three games to net his first goal. Haaland and Arsenal playmaker Martin Odegaard have formed a potent partnership for Norway.</p>



<p>Nevertheless, the Scandinavian side will now face a tough <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/spain-national-team-tv-schedule/">Spanish team</a> without their star striker. Norway travel to Malaga to face Spain on March 25th. They will then have to make the trip to Georgia three days later. The upcoming fixtures are the first round of games for the Euro 2024 qualification process.</p>
