[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] He's too old to get picked up by a ECNL team. And obviously wasn't at the caliber early enough to displace a kid now. This is truth but foolish. At least on boys side, there isn’t much difference in terms of talent (height and bulk, yes) between RL and NL. Yet another reason why we are failing on National Stage - (over) focus on size where it doesn’t matter as much in the sport. (On yes). Modrich, Messi, Iniesta, Tote, Pele: some of the true greats were small in stature. This is a cultural bias - and I think the import of small but gifted players into MLS will slowly change mindset. (Can anyone say Joao Plata? He’s 5”2’) [/quote] thats not true either.. ECNL teams do not have a bias on size.. its technical and speed of play at NL level. Most RL teams at older ages are generally loaded to fast big physical kids. But they struggle in tight space or touch is bad[/quote]
