Unless your DC fit the player profile, chances are slim[/quote]

what's the profile?[/quote]

Generally speaking, with some exceptions, physically mature kids that can be classified as early bloomers. Why a lot of the DCU teams are really good at u14 and start to fade quickly after that.  DCU has known that as a system it can't teach the kids so they have resorted to just trying to be bigger, faster and stronger which they also know will win games in the short term.   But as most know, this only gets your so far. Maybe the new director changes this player profile and the development methodology but that is still to be seen. If you have a smaller kid in DCUs system, it is very hard for them to get on the ball because it is in the air so much for bigger kids to run on it.  If you play in the back or on the wing, DCU could be ok if you value touch rate.  In the middle, DCUs style of play is a travesty.  And because the kids aren't being taught how to share the ball efficiently, the touch rate overall at DCU isn't great.  You'll see a lot of running hard but also a lot of really poor decisions, over dribbling and long balls.  The player profile almost guarantees this.[/quote]
