[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not about the best funded. It's about a system that actually tries to develop the kids in a consistent and proven way. There may be academies that have even less funding than DCU but have a commitment to real development that DCU doesn't have. [/quote] Look at the list of MLS teams with the most homegrown signings. All of them have bigger funding for their academy kids than DCU. If Rocky had trained in a real gym like Drago maybe he wouldn't have had such a hard fight. [/quote] If it was all about funding the Division 1 in European leagues wouldn't be littered with players from small, low budget, no budget African, South American and CONCACAF youth clubs People always seeking ready made excuses [/quote] Got it. Anything Dcu does is good enough. You make the best arguments for “just ok” and mediocrity. DCU just missed the playoffs yet again for the 5th year in a row. Let’s go DCU and the just ok academy that’s supposed to feed into it!!! Wohoo![/quote] Actually, the PP is saying the likes of you are exaggerating the downfalls of the DC academy, especially in comparison to other MLS academies. They didn't say DCU is good enough or great. No NY Red Bulls 2010's made the USYNT camp going on now in Florida. Yet Red Bulls is referenced here as a standard bearer and far superior to DC with 1st Grade funding and top progressive leadership etc. [/quote] We all know you’re the same person posting as diff posters. 🙄 You have posted zero things about what Dcu’s training is like and what they do well. Just they’re a pro youth academy. Period. [/quote] We all know you're the same person who keeps thinking only one person is calling out BS on the dcu bashing[/quote]
