You just made my point and didn't even realize it.  I clearly stated that the ECNL/HS combo is overloading the players.  There is no arguing that and you even argued the same without being bright enough to recognize you were doing so.  And if you think playing more games is utopia, then have at it.  That thinking is endemic in youth soccer in this country and [b]why we are aren't developing more than a once-in-a-while world class player unless they leave this country to play like Pulisic[/b].

I cannot believe a DA parent is making this argument.  While girls DA has only been around the last 2 years, boys DA has been around since 2007.  Pulisic played for a boys DA team, PA Classics, from 2008-2015, before he left for Germany when he was 16.

However, according to the DA groupie poster above, US youth soccer sucks, and Pulisic had to leave for Germany at 16 to develop into a world-class player, because DA was incapable as a league to maximize his development.

Pulisic is arguably the best graduate produced by DA so far, and DA parents should be citing him as the best example of what DA can do for a player -- maybe something along the lines of "DA helped develop Pulisic into a player who was good enough to be signed by one of the top German professional teams at 16."  Instead, we just get ignorant posts like the one above. smh[/quote]

PA Classics, Pulisic, and his family produced that talent. It had nothing to do with what league he played in. Come on.[/quote]
