[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I watched the NWSL final last week and noticed that the best player was a Brazilian not named Marta. In the World Cup this past summer, the USWNT had a dominant performance but it was clear that many other countries were not only on our level but surpassing us as it relates to technical abilities. France, the UK, Spain, Japan, Brazil, Germany, etc, are clearly in strong positions. I have traveled to these countries for business and I don't know that they have a youth soccer program any where near the size of what we have here. Parents in those countries are not dedicating Saturday mornings to soccer games for their kids. Does anyone know what they are doing to develop world class players that can come to the US and win MVP in the final in the US pro league which features the country's best talent? I am certain parents are not forking out $5,000+ a year for travel soccer and yet, if you review the rosters of any elite college team, you will see that a quarter to a third of the players are international. Please, help me understand. [/quote]
