[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is this conundrum why it is taking so long for offers to go out to players outside the two clubs? They aren’t sure which team will be the top one? I agree that you cannot simply split the talent equally, as then neither club is better off than they were before. [/quote]

I think the MLS Next team has to be the top one.  The problem is that I don't see how they can make two teams capable of playing in two top leagues.  The merger made sense when they were going to play in one top league.  On their own neither club can really put out a competitive set of teams in either ECNL or MLSNext.  Combining both clubs would have helped to create one set of competitive teams.  But trying to put out two sets of competitive teams, unless they get a lot of talent from outside, is going to be a struggle.[/quote]

On the boys side, SYC can have a strong MLS and left over talent for another team.[/quote]

No they can't. [b] SYC has a good 2008 MLS Next team.[/b]  Their 2003/4 team may be good enough to finish mid table, although that's not a given.  The 2005-2007 teams will likely be competing for last place, and will struggle to win games.  I don't know about the 2009 team.

And in no case will the players left over be of any significant help in making the ECNL teams stronger, where McLean needs top of the roster players - not more marginal starters/bench players which is what will be left after the MLS Next roster is filled.  [/quote]

SYC 2008s 5 top best players are not from SYC.

Then where are they all from?[/quote]
