[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm thinking that American Soccer won't start to compete with Europe until the Soccer Clubs start putting 13 year old kids (Pick the correct starting age) under contract. i.e. Join us and we'll give you a 5+ year contract. You get to play on this travel team for free, but we control your rights and can trade you to MLS or England, or to whomever we want. .... and there has to be an understanding that if you become less worthy, they can cut you at their discretion. Benefit to kid: Free soccer/uniforms Benefit to club: An ongoing farm team that can be sold for financial gains or used to become a power house.[/quote] That won't be meaningful until such a farm team can have good coaching and development and until scouts here know how to select talent.
