[quote=Anonymous]Sort of back on topic, I am curious what people think about the real difference between being in Europe and the US at that age. Most seem to automatically think it's better but I wonder. Others say the real difference doesn't happen until after 16, when European kids start to focus on their professional career, and US kids get distracted by high school and college. This seems like a good example to make a comparison because he was at a pro 1st division academy here, and now he's at a pro 1st division academy in Holland. Here's the 04 team from DC United a few months ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zO6WVOD2dIk And here are some highlights of Yohanes playing for AZ Alkmaar's 04s this fall: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yk7MA7vevfY&t=183s Totally different level?
