[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So he’s good enough for PSG, but wouldn’t be good enough for the USMNT? Hmmmm...[/quote]

I think you're missing one really important detail: He's not a US citizen and never was. He only lived here 3 years (minimum for citizenship is 5) and now he's off to France.

For all the effort it would take to make Acosta one of ours we could develop a younger player who doesn't have a citizenship issue and enjoy a better long-term benefit.[/quote]

Plus, I think Acosta's chances of someday wearing an Argentina shirt just got a lot better...[/quote]

Definitely improved his chances. Also, to the poster above, you mean just like we developed and gave opportunities to Jonathan Gonzalez? [/quote]

He developed mostly in Mexico, where he plays professionally. But the way he was handled is just another in a long line of screwups by US Soccer. Why are you surprised? Now they're allowing MLS to screw up Tab Ramos' U-20 World Cup plans by holding players back because all they really care about is placating Don Garber, who's basically the real boss of the federation.[/quote]

Im not surprised. Seems like par for the course[/quote]
