[quote=Anonymous]Soccer in US is not great for several reasons. Spoiled rich kids play soccer here. Hungry kids play soccer in other countries. Soccer is just an after school sport here. In other countries it’s life. Soccer is a communal game. US is individualistic culture. Soccer takes patience. US wants everything fast. US youth scene incompetent and toxic. Kids not taught skills. Many poor coaches. Size and speed > technique perfect ex - ‘My kid got into D1’ post: “she is not very technical but blessed with size and speed and is very aggressive.” This says everything you need to know about what is wrong with soccer here. I don’t think it gets better because the sport and the US culture are not compatible. [/quote]
