Eisenhower was a realist.
Most people don't realize that at the end of WWII the US Armed Forces were physically and emotionally spent.
There is a reason why Eisenhower took nine months to get from Arnhem to the Elbe.
It would have taken Zhukov two weeks.
Remember the Battle of the Bulge and the Huertgen Forest? Zhukov never faced either of them, and the Allies were preparing for the invasion of Japan, with estimated casualties of over 1 million men. Zhukov has been wildly over-rated by postwar historians swallowing Soviet propaganda.
