[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]VDA U-15 played three time vs DC. VDA has won 2 of the three meetings. What does this mean? Absolutely nothing. What will happen? Well you will see 1-3 of the VDA players on the DC roster next year. This is how it is supposed to work.

What i find unfair is DC will claim these kids and get transfer rights and the club that developed that child gets nothing. [/quote]

In the US, the youth club that developed the kid already got paid by the parents.  That is their business model.  The pro team takes the risk to develop them even further without cost to the player.  They make their money on the back end when they either sell him or he makes the team.  If he makes the team, he comes at a smaller price tag than if they have to go out and buy a player.[/quote]

DCU claims transfer rights for any kid from their home area even if they never played a single day for DCU's academy.

Well that is stupid as shit, but MLS is weird, so maybe they have some agreement between clubs in the league.  Either way, the feeder club won't get anything unless it is some club to club arrangement.  We don't have the same rules as European clubs.  It's every club for themselves for the most part.[/quote]
